Anyone know of where to find coverage of the 1999 LSU @ Miss. St. FB Game

I am in an argument with an MSU fan. I say this one pathetic call is what won them the game so LSU cannot claim 22 straight in the series.
I recall LSU leading 16-11 and State had 4th and Goal on the LSU 1. LSU stopped the ball carrier in the backfield and he crawled to the endzone which they somehow granted him giving the Bulldogs the 17-16 "win".
I have never found coverage of this game. Does anyone know where to find it so I can prove this was an awful call?

I've never found a highlight or a clip of that play either, but it happened like you said.
Remains to this day the worst call I've ever seen in any sport anywhere. Guys knees hit at the 2 then the 1 and then he lunged into the endzone and they gave him the TD.

You are right about that goal line play. That RB didn't get in. I remember watching that game and being soooo pissed!
They showed that game on ESPN Classic in 2011, and it reaffirmed my memory of it. I'm pretty sure it came on during the day before our Thursday night game with MSU.

I can't find any video of it, but you were right about the score, and down & distance too.

It was reverse the next year when toefield fumbled headed into the endzone but it was called a touchdown. LSU beat state in OT.

can't find the 1999 game, but came across the 1993. I remember watching this one. Back when ABC had an afternoon game before the CBS contract.

he certainly did not get in, and that has fricked up our streak against them. would be the longest streak in the SEC against one opponent

I was at this game and trev faulk threw his helmet into orbit in disgust.
The moo st fans had 7-0 newspapers printed outside the stadium like they won the NC. It was rather comical.
But yeah the refs blew it. He was down clearly.

I recall the running back not getting in too. It was a blown call and wasn't even close. Too bad there was no replay. But of course, the replay official still would have probably gotten it wrong.
