2007 National Championship was pretty great

Was in a suit with my Mom. kept telling her to calm down, OSU was like a toddler, come out strong but tire out pretty quickly.

Wasn't that Jordan Jefferson's best game he ever played?

He's talking about the 2000 Peach Bowl.

But the 2008 Peach Bowl might've been JJ's best game. I think he played pretty well against A&M in the Cotton Bowl too.

I was at the Peach Bowl in 2000 against Georgia Tech. I just remember being in awe of Josh Reed.

outside of the two NC game wins (which I attended)

In person:
2007 Sugar Bowl when we destroyed ND
2001 Sugar Bowl against Illinois
2000 Peach Bowl, it my first ever bowl game and opened the football education of my 9 year-old self.

on TV:
2005 Peach Bowl, the destruction of Miami was too fun
2008 Peach Bowl, "LSU won't stop the triple option" was so gratifying to prove wrong.

Sugar in 2001 and 2006. Had a great time at both.

2001 was basically the emergence of the team as a national power; the Dome was electric as the band marched out and played those four notes.

2006, always great to stomp a mudhole in Notre Dame. Miles saying he'd rather have the QB he had (Jamarcus) than Brady Quinn, then Russell coming out and proving Miles right

Got to go to 1971 Orange Bowl LSU vs Nebraska

Even though we lost & that sucked big time......the game & trip when I was a junior in high school was awesome!!!

yeah the Cotton was prob his best. threw for 3 TDs, ran for 1. not sure how he didn't get the MVP. early ugly INT aside, he balled. maybe Toliver getting it (caught all 3 TDs) was karma though, cuz Jordan wasted his senior year otherwise.

Both championship games. Truly awesome. The first bowl game I saw and still one of the best ever by LSU was 1/1/1966 LSU beat Arkansas 14-7. I was 11 years old.

I've attended the 3 national championship games and these bowls:
1995 Independence vs. Michigan State
1996 Peach vs. Clemson
2000 Peach vs. Georgia Tech
2001 Sugar vs. Illinois
2006 Sugar vs. Notre Dame
2009 Capital One vs. Penn State
2010 Cotton vs. Texas A&M

2001 Sugar Bowl had the wow factor of a huge game and had lots of scoring. The 2010 Cotton Bowl against A&M was also fun because it was my first trip to Jerry World and the team played well. 2009 vs. Penn State was clearly the worst, even with a victory.

40-3 over Miami was best on television by far. I watched 38-3 over Georgia Tech in a bar outside the Rose Bowl and that was pretty fun too.

I'm going with the 95 Independence Bowl for #1. Cold as shite. Back to back kickoff returns by Eddie Kennison and Muhsin Muhammad. I also remember them selling beer at the game which I wasn't used to. My dad and his boys got hammered.

#2 would be 2001 Sugar. Rohan running in circles and finding Josh Reed standing alone at the goal line. Saban asking the student section to settle down and quit throwing shite to avoid a penalty. Fun game.

In person--Sugar against Illinois. I was still a student at LSU, had crazy fun on Bourbon night before. Just a great few days.

I do remember my tickets were behind the goal post and they had the tunnel door open most of the game and it was freezing. Everyone in our section was bundled up. Just kept drinking to stay warm. The Illinois mascot came out before the game doing some kinda crazy tippy toe dance and LSU fans punished him. Haha

Rohan GOAT!
