I'll never understand you douches that don't understand what the triaging and evacuating and disruption of routines, sleep, workouts and all did in that game.

I'll give you an analogy.

If Trindon Holliday had to run an NCAA meet under those same conditions, he woulda been lucky to run a 10.70.

All you idiots talk about how sweaty and exhausted you were and you weren't playing.

Watch the game. You can see the progression of a PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTED team trying to hang on later in the game.

Pellini had no option but put DB's 20 yards back to keep the plays in front of them. Otherwise TN scores 6 TD's in the second half and wins going away.

So why do you have about 7 posts in a thread about the past 25 years of LSU Football?



because I was alive and part of some of those 25 years. I can remember games.

Doesn't make your post any more intelligent

Apparently you cant remember games. You just got done whining about how you were 11 when Saban embarrassed LSU with the UAB loss & it doesn't bother you.

I don't think the UAB loss is remembered really is because we had a coach in his first season, we were coming off a 3-8 season, and because we beat the Tennessee the following week.

no, but i can remember enough games to be a part of this discussion. I remember the UAB game, but being 11 it doesn't have a lasting impact on me. I can also remember the Tenn, and MSU games from that year. I was on the sideline for them.

Have you contributed anything to this thread besides being an a-hole? I've listed my 5 most painful losses, your turn

Auburn '04 (referees decided a game in which we would have won the season would have culminated with a likely SEC Title)


Only a LSU homer would say this. The fact is LSU was the better team that year and they had multiple opportunties to take control of this game, even with all the bad calls. LSU should not have been in that last minute drive position. This was just another LSU "let down" choke game.

Tennessee ranks #1. LSU kicks arse the entire 1st half and doesn't even attempt to try in the 2nd. That was the most pathetic loses I've ever seen. The entire LSU fan base that either sat through that game or watched it on TV should have been apologized to.

What season was Miles in when the Miles Traumatized teh LSU fans with an Overtime loss to Tennessee, an SEC opponent in 2005? Didn't he win like 9 consecutive games something?

"I'm gonna throw out another one.

After getting our asses beat down by Auburn in 1999 the week before, we go to Athens and are down 23-16 on the Dawgs with under a minute left. Josh Booty hits Reggie Robinson for a touchdown on a crazy play and then we miss the 2 point conversion when Josh Booty had Rondell Mealey open in the back of the endzone but didn't see him."


Actually Booty saw Meely in the endzone and threw a fine throw that normally would have hit meely for a catch but the Georgia D End goes higher than you can imagine and swats the pass away. The announcer went on for like ten minutes about how unbelivably high he got up in the air. It was a very painful end to an unbelievable finish of the game. Of course that's the way 99 and especially 98 was. So many could have would have should haves.

I'm assuming you're an alter. Regardless UAB had fielded 9 total football teams - EVAR when that turdlet was foisted on the LSU faithful. Pretty sad considering the talent teh midget was left with.

Dude, stop making excuses. LSU lost b/c of piss arse play calling. Explain how LSU ran all over Tennessee in the 1st half and did nothing in the 2nd. Explain the play calling change. You can say what you're saying until you're blue in the face, but the fact is, LSU choked in the 2nd half. Les Miles and his coaches lost that game, just like they almost lost the Arizona St. game.

About your "LSU being worn-out theory," which is stupid, how is it that LSU won out until the SECCG w/o a bye week? They must have been so worn out, how could they have won that many SEC games in a row? If they did it the last 8 weeks of the season, why is it they could not finish off a sorry Tennessee team?

Agree 100%. UT was a bad team that year and we were a great team. I understand the argument about the hurricanes, I just don't think it was nearly as big of a part of the loss as was the poor coaching.

Hmmmm... there sure are quite a few Dinardo losses in these lists. Not to mention the entire '98 season. To quote The Boat "The 98 team was the greatest 4-7 team in the history of college football."

Yet most of you morons still think Dinardo was a better coach than Curly. If these losses were so painful, doesn't that mean we were supposed to win, but either didn't or blew the game... or entire season?

i think you're the moron here

Curly was 5-6, 2-9, 5-6, 4-7.
DiNardo was 7-4-1, 10-2, 9-3, 4-7, then 3-8

DiNardo actually rose to fall, Curly couldn't do anything.

What was really sad was the previous season when Big Gerry decided to take us on an 8 game losing streak that was capped off by a loss to the mighty Houston Cougars and not even leaving us eligible for a bowl game.

I know this is a football thread but my most painful loss ever to this day was the Kentucky basketball mardi gras massacre. Followed by Auburn '06.

Houston has an established Football program, that's been ranked 15 times. UAB? Never ranked, but on the upside after 2008, they've played 201 games..

It doesn't matter, LSU shouldn't have lost to Houston and there is no excuse for going on an 8 game losing streak. Period.

It matters. One is a a lower level colege team, but fairly competetive, the other is UAB - a glorified High School team.
