Legendary Alabama RB Johnny Musso Joins The Game for Rare Radio Interview (AUDIO)

The Original "Italian Stallion," former Alabama running back Johnny Musso checked into The Game with Ryan Fowler on Friday evening.

Musso, an All-American in 1970 and 1971 under Bear Bryant the Birmingham native became a legend in Tuscaloosa, finishing out his career with 2,741 yards on the ground while finding the end zone 38 times en route to the College Football Hall of Fame.  Legend even has it that Musso wore acid dipped jerseys that would tear as soon as they stretched-evident by his 42 carry, 221 yard performance in the 1970 Iron Bowl when he went through 11 jerseys.

In a rare radio interview Musso came back to Tuscaloosa via the telephone line from his Chicago home to discuss: the story behind the 1971 Iron Bowl when he battled a sprained knee, the implementation of the wishbone offense, the "Italian Stallion" nickname, his feelings on the current success of the Crimson Tide and more.
