We don’t talk about Super Bowl II very much because the Oakland Raiders lost to the Green Bay Packers, 33-14. However, that game signified the end of a magical season for the Silver and Black, the first of many more to come. The 1967 Raiders went 13-1 under head coach John Rauch and obliterated the Houston Oilers, 40-7, in the AFL Championship. The Raiders made the post season in 10 of 11 years from 1967-77.
The Super Bowl was new and the Packers were a holdover from the “old” NFL. The AFL needed a Super Bowl win to legitimize the league.
