On this day: In 1961, the Patriots defeated the Raiders 20-17 at Nickerson Field. The game turned on a bizarre special teams play: Raiders punter Wayne Crow tried to kick the ball out of his own end zone, but accidentally hit the left upright of the goal post, causing the ball to bounce back (goal posts used to be placed at the goal-line before being moved to the back of the end zone in 1974).
Patriots defensive end Leroy Moore pounced on the loose ball in Oakland’s end zone for the touchdown, giving Boston the lead for good.
Elsewhere, the Celtics defeated the Knicks 104-100 thanks to 25 points and 21 rebounds from Bill Russell, and a triple-double (13 points, 12 assists, 10 rebounds) from Bob Cousy.
