LSU vs. Tenn 2000

The LSU fans rushed the feild after an OT win 38-31...after losing to UAB the week before...LSU was 2-2 and unranked.

I think that must of been when Nick said on that Monday's Presser: "We don't rush the feild when we haven't done anything but win one game".

Expectations changed from then on..

The other cool memory is Rohan Davey to Josh Reed...Wow, that was awesome!

We needed that win badly. Morale was at an all time low after the UAB loss.

First game I went to in TS. Still probably the best game I've seen in person.

that first TD catch by Reed was Bad arse, many good receivers make that catch but few would get into the end zone. And Rohan limping off the field after the overtime TD pass..what memories!

In 2000 it never occurred to me that LSU would be in a position to overtake UGA and UT in conference championships in my lifetime...yet here we are.

Memories. I lost my shoe while climbing the goal post and riding it down. It was funny how my mom picked me out on the clip shown from the news. Everyone took patches of the turf home with them from the middle of the field.

I remember trying to go in with a student ticket, and they found my flask and kicked me out at the gate. I had flown from New York for the game and was not going to miss it, so I took a few steps away, and ducked behind a group that was just walking in. They didn't catch me, and I got to rush the field for the first time. I vividly remember the entire student section standing about 1 foot from the sidelines and endzone waiting to rush the field. Great memory.

I turned down an all expenses paid trip to Peru because I had tix to that game. Don't regret it to this day. I remember losing to UAB and asking "why in the hell did we hire a guy that got his arse kicked by the lame duck we just fired?". Davey is my 2nd fav QB behind Hodson.

Rohan had a beautiful throw. He's always been one of my favorites.

Still pisses me off that in 2001 I never got to tear down the field goals
