re: Tiger Stadium Isn't What It Once Was...

"It's probably the only time in my life I was intimidated by the crowd. A lot of great players have played in that stadium, but I don't know if any team has walked into that stadium and dealt with what we went through. From the time we landed to the time we left, I don't know if a team has ever gone through that. Every one of us left that night saying 'that was a game,' but I still think about it that way. I haven't been in an event like that at any level of football. Out of all the games I've ever played in, I've never been in anything like that, and I am including my Super Bowls in that assessment." - NFL Hall of Famer, Ronnie Lott

USC won the game. I was there. It was really loud and intimidating. USC had every reason to crumble, so I left pretty impressed with them when they didn't. It was a really, really good football game. My ears hurt for days afterwards.
