Hi Seth,

We are both showing our age.  I was at Mississippi State when we beat that 
Tennessee team in Starkville. One of our stalwarts was fullback Bill 
Stewart, who was later called up with the Mississippi National Guard and 
lost his life in Korea.

I agree. Lauricella was a great tailback.  Sure miss the old Single Wing.
