Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted December 12, 2012 Report Posted December 12, 2012 wow that footage looks old.
#62jjohnson Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 nice footage and good game , it was cool to see anthony byerly break that run off my man ran down hill , just too many penalties . ahh the days of caged facemasks and forearm and elbow pads . lol
jimmyw Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 I remember that game, we had Anthony Byerly. Also remember the pass we caught in the first half that was disallowed should have been a touchdown but that was 30 years ago and a heck of a game.
ChampionEagles Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 It was hard to watch that again. First time I have ever seen any footage. It was a heart breaker that night. Still remember the feeling when it was announced over the PA that Cameron would advance on first downs. Come on Eagles. Put your foot on the gas!! :)

ChampionEagles Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 No, I'm older. I was in attendance. Byerly did go to Texas and had a knee injury. Played for Akers while there. I don't know a lot about what he has done since then. I occasionally hear things but would hate to start any false rumors. I do believe he is successful.
NewtonNation Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 I'm glad that games go to overtime these days. I would much rather the game be decided by the score, not by stats. That footage was tough to watch. Newton definitely had the momentum late, down 21-0 at one point, but I think that Yoe could have scored at the end had the coach let them.Man what a matchup, two great programs with the history to go with it!!!
tjcfan08 Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 WOW, this is one game that still hurts 30 years later....I remember telling Anthony after halftime, we can't let it end this way....Thanks for sharing this footage.....
ChampionEagles Posted December 13, 2012 Report Posted December 13, 2012 I've heard from second generation coaches from this games participants and they have broken it down play by play. Who says genetics don't count? lol I bet there was some talk of the scat as well.
