40 years after beating LSU at Tiger Stadium, new Tigers hire talks win; ‘wife tells me we cheated’ 

John Robinson may have just been hired as a consultant by LSU football coach Ed Orgeron. But the Hall of Famer is no stranger to Baton Rouge or Death Valley.

Robinson, who coached 15 seasons at USC over three stints, was at the helm in 1979 when the top-ranked Trojans won at LSU, 17-12.

USC marched 79 yards, aided by a controversial face mask penalty, to score a go ahead touchdown with 32 seconds left.
