1993 lsu vs #5 bama huge upset in tuscaloosa

I was only 3 years old at the time so obviously I have no recollection. Many bama fans say this is the biggest upset they’ve ever endured. They had won 31 straight and were 7-0 lsu was 3-5 and not a good ball club and they pulled off the win in Tuscaloosa. I love hearing older fans stories about big wins so what y’all got?
They have a 20 minute highlight on YouTube in my link. Ivory hilliards 2 pics with a pitch back like he’s running an option are fricking awesome

I’ll be in the stadium Saturday. Lets bring it home baws

That was a huge upset when you consider that LSU team had just suffered its worst loss in TS to UF 58-3 that same year.

That video brings back some memories. A freshman Eddie Kennison, Gabe Northern, Robert Toomer, Jay Johnson. For the bad guys Palmer & Kitchens.
IIRC, Curley signed four RB (including Toomer & Johnson), each Mr Football in their respective states. Too bad that one game probably extended Hudson Hallman’s career for another year.

I was in St Petersburg Russia at 23 years old starting the first American radio station ever in Russian history. I called the guy at wjbo working the board and ask him to please put me on hold so I can listen to the game from Russia in the middle of the night. It was awesome. Left town before my phone bill came LOL

I remember that being a brutally cold day in Tuscaloosa.

The "pigs will fly" game.

That win essentially extended the Hallman era one more miserable year. But it was still great to beat those guys.
It was part of a three game late season winning streak that put LSU at 5-5 going into the finale vs Arkansas. A win would have sent LSU to the Carquest Bowl! To say that hopes were high was and understatement...then LSU proceeded to get thumped by Arkansas and finish 5-6 (their best season under Hallman)

That was like the only year that we rocked black shoes. I loved that look.

That game was 4 weeks after October 9, 1993, the "Never Forget" game.

I was at that game. First game of many

I was there sitting in the end zone with my dad. I was in 6th grade and unfortunately living in Bammer at the time. I remember making a shirt with puff paint that had the score so I could troll all the kids at the school.

First LSU football game I can remember watching on tv.

I was at that game,too. Honestly I was afraid we'd get smoked. But I remember in the pre-game our guys were running around whooping it up all pumped and excited. The Bama players were flat as a pancake. Zero emotion. Thought then we might make it close,but never...........

I used to work with Anthony Marshall about 9 years ago. Really laid back guy and loved to talk LSU football. I’d go into his office every week to talk football with him. Pretty cool guy.

I was 12 years old when it happened.
I woke up early that morning and watched it on Jefferson Pilot affiliate WAFB Channel 9.
LSU was coming off a big win against Ole Miss in which they played well. I went to that game and froze my arse off in the South Endzone, despite the game taking place on Oct 30.
There was something special happening to this team, and through the dark years of 1989-1994, the three game winning streak that took place in 1993 was probably the brightest point in that span. After the ‘93 Tigers beat Bama, they also beat Tulane to bring their record to 5-5.
With one game remaining and a Carquest Bowl trip on the line, the Tigers were absolutely pummeled by a 4-5-1 Arkansas team. The dream was dead on a cold day in Tiger Stadium the day after Thanksgiving.

I was living in Nashville at the time, and one of my contractors was an enormous Bama fan, complete with elephant on his vehicle and all. He gave me the 3rd degree all week about how Bama was going to mop the floor with my Tigers. On game day, he was on one of my jobs at the time of the game, and when LSU pulled off the upset, I made it a point to drop by the job site to see how everything was going, but mostly to make him eat his crow. How sweet it was to watch him have to humble himself.
The next day I’m checking out at a grocery store in Hendersonville, and I was wearing an LSU hat, and this random UT fan from another checkout line on the other side of the store yelled out GEAUX TIGERS!!!! I turned around and he approached me, congratulating me on the big upset. He told me how much he enjoyed LSU beating Bama. It’s difficult to measure the true hatred for Bama amongst Tennessee fans, or it was then let’s say. Great game and it made me so proud to wear those colors the whole week afterward.

I remember the game like yesterday. We had a be group committed to geaux but with our record most backed out. Attended with my lovely bride, son (with a broken foot), daughter and wife's parents. It was an unbelievable experience creating lifetime memories with my kiddos. So glad we didn't back out! Hope to see another great game on Saturday this time from the comfort of my home! Geaux Tigers!
