Coach Eddie Robinson of Grambling came in 5th. IIRC, Grambling is a real small college.
Eddie Robinson was a good man but there is no way he should be ahead of Parseghian, Spurrier, or Bobby Dodd.
I saw the Grambling Tigers in action in 1968 when they destroyed Sacramento State in the Pasadena Bowl, played in the Rose Bowl in early December. Their marching band wore flashy uniforms, played jazzy tunes and marched onto the field with a “drive-it” style like that used today by the USC Trojan Marching Band.
