The last AFL Championship game played Jan. 4, 1970 at the Oakland Coliseum between the Chiefs and the Raiders. Oakland had beaten the Chiefs 7 out of 8 times going into this game. Oakland was heavily favored and it was said that they were so confident of victory that they had their bags packed for the Super Bowl in New Orleans the next week.
But when the showdown came the Kansas City Defensive line overpowered the Oakland Offensive line and smothered the Oakland Offense all afternoon and the Chiefs won the game 17-7 and headed off to the Super Bowl despite finishing 2nd behind the Raiders during the regular season.
