I think Mike Patrick just like all the rest of us got just a "tad" excited. I like ESPNs crew. Seems I remember something about the Tigers doing really well in ESPN broadcast games...hell, I'd rather have "them" broadcast all the rest! :helmet::helmet::helmet::helmet::helmet:
I still get goosebumps watching that. That goes down as one of the most exciting Tiger Stadium moments for me.
I didn't think to record it (and it was in beautiful HD when I watched it). I tried to record the replay but they showed the Colorado game instead. I recorded the ESPN Instant Classic replay but the damn thing cut off because I guess the game went over 3 hours long so I missed the winning drive. It's on ESPNU tomorrow nite but I don't have ESPNU. Talk about frustrated.
Great video, but it wasn't Hawthorne. Hawthorne is on radio - not TV. I love hearing his broadcasts. When I watch LSU on TV, I turn down the set and turn up the radio so I can hear Hawthorne's broadcast.
If anyone has a copy of this week's "Inside LSU Football" they use Hawthorne's calls over the video. That'd be the best shot you have right now, though.
