1980 Profile: Isiah Robertson

Linebacker
No. 58
Southern
When the six-time Pro Bowl selection intercepted a pass against the Bengals last year and returned it for a touchdown, it was the third interception returned for a touchdown in his career- in the regular season. In 1975, when still with the Rams, he returned one 76 yards for a score against the Eagles, and in '73 it was 49 yards for a touchdown against the Giants. And in a 1974 playoff game against the Redskins, Isiah intercepted a pass in the fourth quarter and returned it 59 yards for a touchdown in a 19-10 Los Angeles win.
With 11 interceptions in three seasons at Southern, Isiah was an AP and UPI small college All-American and a Sporting News All-American.
