Jim Marshall went the Right Way, the 'Flea Kicker' game, and 'Rudy' Reutiger got his chance - This DiSH for Nov. 8

from Sports History Network

In 1958, Ohio State's Jim Marshall returned a blocked punt for a touchdown and followed that up later with an interception return for a touchdown. The guy who became known for going the wrong way on a fumble recovery in the NFL in 1964, actually knew how to get to the right endzone. In 1997, the Nebraska Cornhuskers benefitted from a missed call to score a touchdown with no time left in regulation to force overtime. In 1980, Illinois quarterback Dave Wilson launched an impressive aerial attack against Ohio State despite the fact that the Big Ten was desperately trying to bar him from playing.In 1975, Daniel ‘Rudy’ Reutiger made his appearance for Notre Dame that would later be immortalized in the film ‘Rudy.’In 1963, a riot broke out at Roosevelt Raceway in Westbury, New York after an on course crash and then a controversial judgement. In 1970, New Orleans Saints kicker Tom Dempsey kicked a 63-yard field goal.
