I was there as well. Tear a way jerseys were the thing in those days and Redden went through a box of them that day.
There is obviously a W&M person there to steal the trophy. How else does one account for the yellow and green vehicle parked beside the trophy. Theft is the #1 (only?) means of W&M getting the coveted trophy.
pitch to Imoh/Mathis and an option pass.worry that we overplay Imoh/Mathis given emotion level.
That's why all such vehicles at Oregon State are Kubota. Orange, not green and yellow duck colors. My family's three rival teams (UO, Colorado State, W&M) all wear green & gold.
Ran into Bruce Smith shortly after being drafted by the Bills. He was buying drinks at a local VT bar. He said Redden was the most punishing back he tackled doing his VT career.
Barty Smith was freight train rolling down hill also.
Yes, back when Barty was in school, there were wooden signs with metal polls that identified the dorms. One Saturday night Barty decided to test his prowess by running through and breaking 5 of those signs. Barty was one tough football player. He was a Spider great. He is a class guy.
Will never forget the beatdown he gave to the WM defensive backs when he ran through them in the 1973 game at WM.
