Joe and Tracy Simpson were responsible for most of the visiting Blue Devil offense, and the Notasulga defense completely shut down the Trojans in the first ever varsity football meeting between the two teams.  Greg Henderson started the scoring with a long run on the fifth scrimmage play of the game, with Joe catching a two point conversion pass from Tracy afterwards, and Notasulga was never headed.  Each of the Simpsons scored on a touchdown run later in the game, but both two point conversions failed.

The Devils outrushed the Trojans 172 - 60, even
though Saint James had more carries.  The Trojans missed a touchdown in the fourth quarter by inches, literally, as the Devils stuffed the quarterback sneak on a fourth down from inside the half yard line, preserving their shutout.
