1) The 58-3 home pasting to Florida in 1993.
Or

2) The 31-5 thrashing to Kentucky in 1999?

Honorable Mention

3) The loss to Ole Miss after Florida in 1997. The game would be the 'beginning of the end' for Gerry Dinardo and usher in Saban

November 12, 1994, USM 20, LSU 18 - Curley Hallman's last season. I've been to every home game since. But at the time, things were so bad that I stayed home and painted cabinets in the kitchen. It was the smallest Death Valley crowd since 1974 (announced attendance was 51,718, but LSU officials estimated the actual crowd was closer to 40,000). To date, Hallman is the only LSU coach since the formation of the SEC to have never tallied a winning record or coached in a bowl game.

Mal Moore? Eta. He was in 1999 I think.

Losing 32-0 to Ole Miss in Jackson in 1992 was pretty damn low.

For me it was Colorado St. 17 - 14 in 1992. I remember us opening with an interception and possibly a TD, and then it just unraveled. I walked out of there sick to my stomach where the program was...and we had to endure more years of it. To think what we would have given for the "terrible" years of today.

Definitely not any of the Dinardo losses, as bad as those losses to Kentucky and Houston were. At least he gave us a glimmer of hope from 95-97. The program had some talent at that time as well.

The Hallman days were the dark ages of LSU football. Losing 58-3 to Florida in Baton Rouge is easily the low point of LSU's football history (at least modern history; I don't know enough about the very early days to comment).

Losing to Colorado State at home in 92 had to be up there as well.

My last game as a student. The student section was bare and a lot of people there were reading books. It was sad. The only reason I went is it was my last as a student.
