Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 399376, member: 289"] Came across this on U-Tube. It was posted last year and may have been linked here before but I haven't seen it. Quite a gem for old time SU fans or those who wish they were.

He wishes he did.. He let it bounce in the eend zone and assumed it was a dead ball when it wasn't, (at least under the rules at the time) and Nova covered it up for a score. Frank Maloney was quoted after the game that if he had a rifle, he'd have used it to shoot Hurley and maybe he would have fallen on the ball. A bit harsh but better than "IHTDABJ". #48 intercepting a pass for SU to cancel out Tim Wilson's errant pitch is the alte Mike Zunic, who 11 years later joined his wife Judy in helping people during the crash of United Airpines Flight 232 in Sioux City Iowa. Both were killed.

Syracuse was a lowly 1-7 after losing Bill Hurley in the opening game. But you don't want to play a team in the least game of your historical home stadium. I remember what happened after the game was over. People were carrying out pieces of benches, swinging them around like the Three Stooges did with two by fours. It was such a zoo that when McArthur Stadium had it's last game a couple decades later, I went to the penultimate game instead to avoid the mess and so I could remember the place still standing in it's full glory.
