"RFC Throwback Thursday" is back with another video, just in time for Thanksgiving. This week's installment takes us back to December 1, 1979. That was when the Grambling State University Tigers squared off against the Southern University Jaguars in the Bayou Classic, played inside what is now the Caesar's Superdome in New Orleans.
In a low-scoring defensive struggle, Southern emerged victorious with a 14-7 win over Grambling. The Jaguars finished the 1979 season with a record of 4-2 in SWAC play and 7-4 overall. Meanwhile, the Tigers shared the SWAC title with Alcorn State in finishing their campaign at 5-1 in SWAC action and 8-3 overall.
