Still remember that long long trip back from Jackson 1980. Coach Bryant was mad as hell on that Sunday Show. I went to Jackson twice that year with Bama beating Steve Sloan and the Rebels earlier in the year.Know how Mississippi state feels now
How did John Bond and the Bulldogs pull off that upset? I remember the game vaguely, but i distinctly remember them breaking Bama's 28 game winning streak.Still remember that long long trip back from Jackson 1980.

I think you might be still able to watch that Sunday Coacg Bryant show. I watched several years ago. He was heated.

The bulldog hc was emory ballard. Who came up with wishbone at texas as an assistant
Bamas points came on a fumble by msu right at end if first half. Msu fumbled. Bama kick a fg
At end of game. Bama drove all way into msu 10. Rule at that time was crowd had to quiet down when officials instructed if offense couldn't hear signals... strange rule. . Jacobes couldn't hear signals. And officials couldn't get crowd quiet. Drive ended at 1 when bama ran up middle for no gain on fourth down.
But. Msu fumbled ball but Bond recovered. Game over.
Wasn't televised but listened.
Ended bama and bears 26 game win streak
