Sugar Bowl Hall of Famer Bobby Scott

Before his 12-year stint as backup quarterback with the New Orleans Saints, Bobby Scott made his local debut at the 1971 Sugar Bowl. With slingshot passing, Scott led the Tennessee Volunteers to an easy victory over the Air Force Falcons and earned the most valuable player award for the game. The Historic New Orleans Collection interviewed him for their series, NOLA Life Stories.
