Here’s an abbreviated video of Bama/Notre Dame 1973 Sugar Bowl in Tulane stadium.

I just watched the whole thing on ESPN Classic. It came down to a missed extra point. After the game, Parseghian made a point of giving respect to Alabama and their coach. I remember at the time as a kid how upset my grandfather in Birmingham was about the outcome.

In '86, I new something had to finally give, because Alabama had never beaten Notre Dame, and Lou Holtz had never beaten Alabama. Finally, BAMA got the win, but nothing will ever make up for '73 and '74. I think Alabama will win, but it won't be nearly as satisfying as beating Penn State in '79, Miami in '92, or Texas in 2010.
