Notte dame '86 was great and is hardly ever mentioned. Had a great goal line stand that saved the game and helped make it to the sugar bowl that year.

What was the game where the players kept pointing to the video board? Refs were totally clueless? Must have been '02 or '03.

Oregon state game I left early and was about 500 yards outside of TS and then I heard cheering, so I ran my arse back up and saw the rest of the game. I almost passed out screaming so much that game.


Great game

I believe that was the 2000 Bama game, which was our first victory at home vs Bama in a ridiculously long time. My votes:

2004 vs Oregon State-the streaker was one of the funniest things I have ever witnessed. There has to be video of that somewhere!

2007 vs Virginia Tech-an absolute beatdown of a top 10 OOC opponent from beginning to end, and ultimately what got us in the title game that year. That game is easily in my top 10 all time in TS, but nobody ever seems to talk about it.

Ole Miss 1982 (near Halloween)

Before the game, a coffin was brought to midfield. The lid opened, and Mike the Tiger (the guy in the suit, not the real one ) emerged wearing a cape and long fangs. Was surreal and totally fricking awesome.

That reminds me, my dad has footage of the pregame vs FSU the year we went to the Orange Bowl where Mike scalps a Seminole at midfield. It is freaking awesome. The field is covered in oranges too. I'm gonna have to put that on YouTube one of these days.

You are definitely correct about that. I remember that game vividly and it was wild. The craziness at the end rivaled the 2007 Florida game when the USC-Stanford score was announced.

I shite you NOT.

The OSU "rain game". Students were the only ones left in the stadium. We were soaked. I got to see multiple Boobs that night.

There was a streaker. He evaded cops on a wet field for a while.

I'm pretty certain this game started the Callin Baton Rouge tradition too. I don't remember it being played regularly before that.

Don't know if I've ever been more proud to be a part of a fanbase than this. I remember hearing it start up somewhere and everyone just let loose with it - for a long time too.

I thought I was the only guy with footage of that.

That pre game was better than anything I've seen in the last 35 years.

If I remember correctly, there were 5 or more people running on the field but only 1 streaker. Twas epic. The guy got kicked out of school for it, I believe.

It doesn't get as much love because we lost, but the 2008 Alabama game, Saban's first game back in TS. LSU hadn't shite the bed yet for the season, a win against Alabama would have put them in control of own destiny in the West, as defending champs. LSU comes back from 21-7 down to tie it up, only to seemingly give Alabama an easy FG to win it at the end. The moment that FG was blocked might be the single greatest moment in TS history. I don't think it's ever been louder after a single play.
