That LSU defense was elite that year


Pete Jenkins was the DC/DL coach, literally in his coaching prime at 41.

Anchored by senior defensive linemen Ramsay Dardar (All SEC) and (future NFL great) Leonard Marshall, the defense featured All SEC LB Albert Richardson (a tackling machine who made some All American lists) and All SEC CB James Britt (also a NEA All American), with other Tiger defensive greats such as Greg Bowser, Gregg Dubroc, Rydell Melancon and so many others.

I’ve always felt that due to Cannon winning the Heisman, it was too soon to give it to another Tiger. The West Coast media shoe horned Terry Baker a QB from Oregon St. as the winner.

Happy Birthday 21.
