Update on "greatest headline in sports history"
Not to say this headline didn’t happen, but 41 years ago, which would’ve been 1968, that Oct. 5 game in which UGA beat South Carolina yielded no such headline. In fact, I can’t find any columns by Grizzard in the Sept.-Oct. 1968 volumes of the Athens Daily News/Athens Banner-Herald, either (I didn’t look much further, as time hasn’t allowed today).
Still, it’s a good story, and I’m really hoping to find it. Will continue the search in volumes from years around that time. Stay tuned.
