I started going to Ga. Tech games in 1960 because my uncle married Bobby Dodd's secretary and she always came through with tickets to home games. Boone ever gave Tech as tough a time year after year than Duke. It was a pleasure to watch them play.
jayfey: joe bellino graduated in the class of 60 from the USNA, taking the Heisman Trophy with him. Roger's breakout came late in the 61 season as a sophmore and he started his last 2 seasons, winning the Heisman and creating some forever memories for my dad and I. it was a great time to be a 12 year old and living near Annapolis. The guy was brilliant at scrambling around and making a broken play work.
I was there, as a freshman at Duke. This is just as I remember it :-). But they missed the Duke students bringing the sheared and painted Navy goat out of the tunnel onto the field between the lines of Midshipmen before the game. Jim

Staubach was at Navy from 1962 to 1964, winning the Heisman in 1963, his junior year.

Duke's helmets had a padding that ran down the middle of the helmets. Ohio State had helmets like that also.
Those helmets with the padding on top were all the rage at the time. Ohio State and Cornell used them, as well, among others.
