La Tech in 2009 easily, being down at halftime to a 3-7 in state school had me so pissed I couldn't enjoy the win

2011 SEC championship game vs UGA.

LSU did not get it's first 1st down until midway in the 3rd quarter and Les made no changes. I knew LSU did not have a chance to win the next game.

I had the opposite experience. I was sitting in the opposite endzone of the action. As soon as the ball was snapped over Jefferson's head my group got up to leave...the game was surely over.

I was on the phone with a friend after and they had turned it off and missed the redo.
They were bummed about the loss and I was gleeful about Kiffin and it took a while for the other person to grasp what happened.
"what? you mean they won? what? what?

That Tennessee game gave me lots of joy. To see..

JJ clueless as the clock ran out.
T-Bob snapping the ball just because.
Orange-pants Dooley having a hissy fit as the Tigers got another chance.

Epic.

I don't know the exact year, but when I was in college in the early 80's we needed a final drive to beat a really shitty Oregon State team in the first game of the year. Talk about lowering expectations!

For sure. Honestly the hardest we played that year was in the loss at Auburn.

If you've read this board after an LSU win, you'd know this thread should be about 20,000 pages.

First possession of 2nd half LSU got a 1st and then KH TD.
The offense scored TDs 4/5 2nd half drives and not sure what you would change.

You didn't enjoy the guy getting naked and storming the field?

That was worth admission alone.

Last year vs. MSU.
I was so excited for McNeese State.
It obviously got rained out.
After the first half of MSU the lack of a "tune-up" game didn't appear to be a problem.
Then we went into full choke mode. It was excruciating to watch.
When the field goal attempt went up I was beyond console. The swing of emotion was too much. The next day I felt hungover and shitty. pretty much like if we had lost.

No!

Every win feels like a win to me and I'm a happy camper to have won the game as opposed to losing it.

As an LSU fan who suffered through the six straight losing seasons in the 90s, i'll take ithe win and be damn happy to get it.

Hopefully, there will never come a time for me that I will be so aggroant it in my LSU fan hood that I can't enjoy a win.

I find it amazing that somebody didn't get fired over that shite. I guess it ended Dooley's career but LSU's offense was fricked up and still is.

That's far too simplistic.

No, it isn't. LSU wins the game. That's all that matters, no matter what POS idiots think.

That was quite comical, and he slid like 40' on a belly flop...especially funny was a female guard having to escort him away. Ole boy was a PhD student and was kicked out of school... I'm sure he said to himself "don't care, had sex with death valley turf."

Um No. Ole boy got a stern warning from LSU, probation from Doug Moreau, and finished his PhD at LSU. Currently lives and works in BR.

I personally liked the win against Tennessee in 2010. It was a hard fought battle against an SEC opponent that played with mettle.

There are very low "utils of satisfaction" for winning games against UAB, New Mexico State, Eastern Michigan, etc.
