Majors Boots South to Shrine Bowl Victory
Bobby Majors of Tennessee delivered the deciding point for the South, booting an extra point after an earlier fourth quarter TD tied the Shrine North South game at 6-6. The 190 pound speedster played without a proper kicking shoe and helped the South secure a 7-6 win, its first since 1965, as Florida’s Durrance scored the tying touchdown and Bill Bushong was injured. Majors noted the win could ease preparation for the upcoming Senior Bowl and potential $1,000 payoff.
