I had a life crissi after 1/9 but that was sorta bubbling up anyway. THe 2011 season was sorta covering up a lot of shite.

Honestly still a great season it was amazing till the end.

I have not, however I am a tear hoarder rather than a shedder. I internalize my emotions to an extreme, which my analyst tells me will bring about my downfall one day.

Losses usually roll over me pretty fast. I'll get really angry at the end of the game, take a deep breath, remind myself that it's just football, and that's it.

Tennessee 2010 really mellowed me out I think. I got really angry and left the house only to find out a few hours later that we actually won the game.

I don't remember being super pissed on 1/9 because I was sloppy drunk by the 3rd quarter and still going.

Yes and I have cried after a few wins too.
I shed a few (Not many) after the 17-16 win over Ole Miss in 72. Was sitting very low on the 5 yard line (Towards the South End) of the West Side and was in great position to see the Jones to Davis pass. Teared up from emotion after the PAT by Rusty Jackson. Still in high school. Buddies were sitting low in the SE corner of the South Endzone and got a birds eye view of the catch. That's the only time I can remember having a salty discharge flow from my eyes in Tiger Stadium and have been there for most of the historical big wins.

Just curious to see if anybody here will actually admit that LSU losing is that painful to him or her. Kinda like the Bama fan in 2011. As for me the answer is no but I have gotten really angry and bent out of shape. The Ole Miss loss is when I turned the corner and made a vow to never get upset over a football game again, just really doesn't matter when it's all said and done.


Negative, but when I was in college, it would literally ruin most of my week. My g/f(now wife)wouldn't even want to be around me. Now that I'm older, I don't let something like a football game get to me. In all honesty, I don't even care anymore.

Tears? No. Depression? Yes.

I did cry after a Saints game once though when I was a kid.

Never after a loss, but I got misty eyed after a few big wins.


The first year after my daughter died, we beat Alabama on her birthday, Nov6, and all cried while singing Happy Birthday instead of the Alma Mater at the end of the game. After that it was Jager shots and joyous.

At the SoCarolina game last year in the 4th quarter with the outcome still undecided, the emotion in the stadium was so overwhelming I started crying and hugged my youngest daughter and told her, "I don't even care if we win or not, this shite is great."

I have never cried. I was literally sick to my stomach watching AU in 94. I wanted to put my foot through the TV against Arky in 2002. I screamed at Les against Ole Miss twice and UT once. That's about it.

My thoughts go out to you on this one. The worst experience a parent can ever possibly go through. I tell my wife all the time if something happens to either my daughter or grandkids, you may prepare for a complete shut down on my end and write me off as a basket case. With that said, I commend you for carrying on. Both of your shared experiences are inspiring.

Never. I have cried after a win though, walking near the band and taking pictures of the scoreboard. That's happened to me a few times.

However, I'm pretty sure I was legally drunk at all of these occurrences.

I cried after Tenn 1959 cost LSU back to back national championships. I was 14 yo at the time. Haven't cried since but have pained over many losses, as well as elated over more wins,
