I was at that game also. It was cold so you would have though MSU would have had an advantage. I remember the back to back kickoffs and as others have mentioned both teams had a few players who played in the NFL. Makes you wonder if both teams under-performed with six wins that year.
I liked the MSU marching band. I remember how during the pre-game they played the LSU fight song as a sign of respect or friendship before playing the MSU fight song. Turns out that is a MSU tradition and sort of a big ten tradition, which is nice gesture for sportsmanship. It was neat to see all the tiger fans cheering while the MSU band played the fight song.

Dinardo convincing Faulk to come to LSU was HUGE!! It started the best state players staying home again
This!! To me that season of '95 was the foundation for the current state of the LSU program. People rag Dinardo, but I will always be grateful to him for turning around football at LSU after the Hallman disaster.

The Independence Bowl used to be bigger. They used to pull in ranked teams. Didn't we go there one year at 8-3?

Saban didn't get too pissed off it seemed like back then. He gets angrier every year closer to death.

Kennison got my attention in that game, when he flatfooted over the fence on an out of bounds play. The Michigan players had trouble getting back over the fence.

That was ny first bowl game. Froze my arse off. Driving back to West Monroe we pulled over on an off ramp to pee. My buddy Randy was drunk and rolled down the embankment pissing all over himself. Great memory.

I remember the game like it was yesterday. The wife and I sprung for $75.00 a ticket to a ticket broker on a $35.00 face ticket. Her parents lived in Bossier and watched our daughter. I got hammered to fight the cold. Remember Kendall Cleveland having a good game but Faulk tearing it up.
Thought we turned the corner and "were back" then 98 and 99 hit...
Still can't figure out what happened to Dinardo. I think he had problems keeping good asst coaches. Who knows?

One of my most awesome LSU memories was at that game. I was standing in the endzone section against the fence and Eddie was in the end zone waiting for the TV time out to end. He was interacting with the LSU fans in the end zone section and I started chanting "Eddie, Eddie" and it spread through the end zone section and up into the bleacher section. They kicked and he housed it.
When I got home I had recorded the game and before the kick off I could hear that chant I started on TV.

His demise was micro managing his very good offense and Defense Coordinators who both ended up leaving. Then came the "Co-Coordinator" concept and Lou Tepper. It was all downhill from there for Dinardo...........

I was there thanks to a Christmas present by my girlfriend of the time. Excellent gift!

the first LSU bowl game I attended - I was in 8th grade and my dad took me and a few buddies to the game,
distinctly remember how proud i was when Herb Tyler hoisted the LSU flag up and started jogging around the stadium waving it around, wow have we come a long way since then.
btw, that kickoff return by Eddie Kennison was ridiculous !
