Message: [QUOTE="StillJimPA, post: 25791, member: 517"] There was a time when this shoe was on the other foot. On a high profile national stage the 1961 SU/ND game ended with a very bitter aftermath.it was the major news on the sports pages for at least several days. The emotions were so high on both sides as memory serves me SU vowed not to ever play ND again in any sport...for infinity. That held true for many years until they finally met in BB.. Thhis article doesn't address this point but when the game films were avaiable, as I recall, there wasn't any roughing. That was the primary reason SU took issue with the loss. ND was very vocal in not forfeiting the game due to a bad call. This game was a very big deal at the time. This is the first link I have posted here so I hope it works. It s a worthy read.
