After reading through several threads of mostly "factual" arguments this morning, I decided to put a little trivia quiz together for all you knowledgeable Tiger Fans.

The following questions are for the time period of 2000-2013 (the Saban and Miles Era) of LSU Football, in which we have all enjyed many remarkable performance both on an individual and team level:

1. Which player had the most tackles in a single season?

2. Which year's LSU team gave up the fewest sacks? Who was the OL coach that year?

3. Which year's offense averaged the second most yards per game?

4. Which team committed the most penalties?

5. Which player had the most tackles for loss in a single season?

6. Who was Nick Saban's first Defensive Coordinator?

7. Which team rushed for the most yards for a season?

8. Which individual player rushed for the most yards in a game?

9. Which player had the most rushing attempts in a single game?

10. Which player had the most completed passes in a single game?

11. Which player had the most career interception return yards?

12. Who was the Defensive Back coach for the 2003 LSU Tigers?

13. Which team had the most Kick-Off return yards for a season?

14. Which team had the fewest Kick-Off return yards for a season?

15. Which 3 players are tied for the most sacks in a season?

16. How much was the most points scored by an LSU team during the period? Who was the Opponent?

17. Which LSU team had the fewest passes intercepted by the opposition for a single season?

20. Who attempted the most passes in a single game?

21. Which player has the most career TD catches during this period?

22. Which punter had the highest single season punting average?


The following are more general knowledge questions?

23. LSU has had five different Head Coaches that were later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame, can you name them?

Not trying to prove anything. Just having fun in a positive way. There were many great players and teams and unbelievable performances.

Oh, BTW only had to look up about 5, but I'm just a stat geek.

Apparently the OP was just trying to lighten things up and get away from the same old stuff and you have to get all pissy about it.

you got 6 correct. You could make an argument for 7 correct with the Phil Elamissian as Saban's first DC but John Thompson was hired for the job and left soon thereafter to take the same position at Arkansas. Technically he never coached a down of Tiger Football, so
