Great list, I remember them all!

And though a few of them were heavily biased for some junctures, and/or majority, Refgate on the Plains(was there in person) 2006 was the most crooked hosejob wire-to-wire..

Line opened Aub -3, finished -3.5 and 4, despite much two-way action, and my crew saw the refs laughing their asses off as the motorcade drove by after the game..true story.

Dammit. I hate bad memories.

2009 Bama was the worst of the worst IMO.

Whatever year it was we lost because the refs called that stupid penalty that gave Aubbie a second shot at the PAT or FG.

It was a PAT that would have kept the game tied instead of giving them the win. While that did suck it was a legitimate call thanks to an idiotic rule that was only in force for that one year.

Honestly if you think this was the absolute worst, your scope is WAY too narrow. That interception in no way would have guaranteed our anemic offense would have done anything with the ball at that point. There are far worse and decisive robberies in our history, unfortunately.

Vanderbilt game in Nashville 1990.

SOUTHEASTERN ROUNDUP : Vanderbilt Gets Call; LSU Falls - Los ...
articles.latimes.com/1990-09-23/.../sp-1603_1_47-yard-field-goal -Sep 23, 1990 ... The offensive pass-interference call enabled the Commodores to pull off the upset.

Aug 1, 2011 ... @Mark_Schlabach Todd Kinchen (LSU) caught a Hail Mary to beat Vanderbilt in
1990 but was called back for off pass interference. Bad call.

Auburn 06 was a hosejob of epic proportions.
Second only to Centenary in '32, of course.

The Moo St RB that bounced into the endzone..off the 2 yard line!!..for one of MSU's few wins vs LSU over the last 25 years..should make the Top 10 somewhere.

3. Auburn 2006 - This was a bagman game from beginning to end. Pick any of several plays. This game flat out sucked.


From the 3rd down conversion to Hester that was overturned to the missed Int at the end and all the shitty calls in between. This one was brutal.

1969, when the Tigers had a gentlemen's agreement to play Texas in the Cotton Bowl for what would have been the national championship. When Notre Dame broke its bowl ban, Texas jumped at the chance to avoid what was Cholly Mac's best team. We lost to Archie 26-23 for our only loss. By the way, Ole Miss beat Arkansas (Arkansas played Texas for #1 at the end of the regular season and should have won) handily in the Sugar Bowl. The Longhorns were strictly a running team and would have been stopped cold by the great LSU defense.

'82 basketball vs Tennessee. LSU up by 1, :08 to go. Vols inbound ball under the far basket. Clock does not start for 2-3 seconds. Dale and the crowd goes nuts. Clock started well after Tennessee crossed halfcourt. They take a shot which missed, but the tip-in at the buzzer went in.

Devoe hauls his arse and his team to the bus w/o showering as Dale raises holy hell because of the screw job (why didn't we foul, it was only 4 team fouls?) the Tenn team was out of the building by the time the crowd left, probably in the air.

Auburn in '06 likely cost us the same opportunity.

We beat Auburn, we go to Atlanta to revenge our loss to UF in the regular season. I totally believe that team beats Florida a second time around and demolishes Ohio St.

Would have been a classic for sure, the Longhorns beat a pretty good Irish team in that bowl!

I remember the game against Auburn where they were aiming for Dorsey's knees almost every single snap. I'll never forget just wanting to storm the field and beat the crap out of them with a tire iron or something.
