UpperCumberlandMan=again your story is cloudy.  SC had the ball coming  out of their own endzone after a 76 yard punt by Macon Co.  SC got two first downs.  Had the ball 3rd and 2, and did not get it.  After that SC punted.  The ball traveled 14 yards.  Macon County got the ball around midfield.  Came out trying to throw it, and couldn't.  Hudson had a nice run, on a draw I think.  Macon went back to the pass, and had one almost picked off by the SC free safety. Coach Pat Dyer told the OC not to throw it again.  They got the ball where Kittrell wanted it, and bang. It would have been good from 60.  SC got the ball  back with about 1:00 and couldn't muster anything.  I know this is the truth because I lived it.  One of the most gut wrenching/exciting weeks and games I have ever been apart of.  SC had there chances and couldn't put Macon away.  Macon kept punching, and delivered the knockout blow.

Jut going off tall tails of the game...ones who lived it would know better. Did watch MC that year verses TC, very big OL and DL. York at WR, Dallas at RB and Hudson at RB all had good speed. The FB-DE was huge. Makes you wonder what 12-2 MC would have been if that qb had stayed. I know Fulton was very good. So was the crowd at Macon as big as people say it was?

Very big crowd, and eletric atmosphere.  They had to turn people away.  People were 3-5 deep all the way around the field.  Several on the ouside looking in.   Don't think the QB would have made any difference in their season except maybe the first game.  There were 4 very good teams in the region. TC, Macon, Smith, LA.  On any given night any outcome was possible.

Don't forget Portland.

I think MC was 11-1 and SC was 10-2. That was the year LA started the season 1-3 before changing their offense and winning their last 7 including a bowl game despite not making the playoffs. LA was better than both these teams by year end but still wouldn't have beat Uncle Jimmy.

Sorry OldCat but the 03' Cats couldn't beat either one beginning or end.
