The 1966 Cotton Bowl and no other bowl comes close except NC games. It was the biggest upset by an LSU team in school history. LSU was 7-3 overall and 3-3 in the SEC. Arkansas was ranked #2, riding a 22 game winning streak, and hoping to jump Mich. State to become #!. Tigers pulled off huge upset with a 14-7 win.

I went to the '03 and '07 NC games

Outside of those two:
I went to the Peach Bowl in against GT saban's first year

Sugar Bowl the next year against Illinois (awesome game) Dominic Davis, Davey and reed put on a show.

The Cotton bowl against Texas- Roy Williams fricked us up and down the field

The Cap one bowl against Iowa (Saban's last game)

Went to the Miami Peach Bowl- great game
Beat the shite outta the U

The Sugar Bowl against ND was great to see in person.

Peach bowl against GT (Paul johnson's crusty arse)- best bowl game I went to but never saw a play. Got hammered at the turner center some taco restaraunt fricking oatmeal cookie shots. Some table next to us kept buying is rounds of em. And who am I to turn down some free drinks? I obliged and got fricked up. Went to the game, got to my seat, and then went straight to the toilet. fricking hugged the camode the whole first half and finally went the hell back to my cousin's house and passed out.
As I was dry heaving, I could hear all the big plays being made and I was cheering in the stall.

Attended the Cap one bowl agains Penn St.- what a shitshow of a field. And a shitty game

This. We whooped em like they stole something.


Considering it was Miami, they probably did steal plenty of things.

That freezing cold night in Shreveport is one of my favorites. I loved the way that team put it to notre dame for some revenge

2007 BCSNCG (2008)-After an unlikely recovery, making LSU the first 2x BCS NC. Went down in the first quarter, but controlled the rest of the game. I don't know why people love cliffhangers. I like games where each new development is in our favor. Still exciting.

2008 Chick-fil-et - Thought for sure JJ could be the next JaMarcus

2010 Cotton Bowl - Disappointing season that evened out in the end and would up with a dominant bowl performance setting us up for 2011.

Saw none in person. I remember the 2003 championship, but don't remember the game being anything special. I do remember enjoying the win considering my brother was at OU at the time and all his buddies had been talking a lot of shite.

The 1997 Independence Bowl vs Notre Dame. We won 27-9, but a little over a month earlier they beat us 24-6 at home.

'07 National Championship game. Fun to witness the Ohio State fans melt down slowly as they realized they weren't going to win the game. One wouldn't go down nicely so he was introduced the NOPD. The po po won that one!

Miles' first 3 were pretty amazing. I was at the ND sugar bowl beat down with my dad, so that one probably takes the cake, but man that 3 year stretch was good times.

Tennessee OT game in 2000. 38-31 in OT. ESPN night game. Rohan was a warrior in that game. IMO, this game set the tone for all the good things that came afterward. I knew we were for real again.

Beating GA Tech in the Peach Bowl. Bradie James won MVP day after one of his parents died. And Tommy Banks finally being used in the right way. Two TD's receiving I believe. And seeing Josh Booty benched for Rohan Davey!!! Great night!!

Yes, '05 Peach Bowl, in person with obnoxious Miami friend who wanted to leave by end of third quarter but I wouldn't let him. Some white fullback I didn't know at the time (Hester) seemed to gain ~8 yards every carry. Miami fired their coach after the game.

83 orange bowl. LSU lost to a very good Nebraska team. I gave up my Sugar Bowl tickets to watch this game.

Sugar bowl in 2002 vs Illinois is the first that comes to mind. LSU could have beat anyone in the country at the end of that year. They just came on too late. Rohan to Reed was an amazing thing to watch that year. Beating Tennessee in the SECCG was especially sweet too because 1) it's the friggin SECCG and 2) if Tennessee had won they would have played for the MNC.

I'd bet was Taco Mac sports bar. I did basically the same thing for the Clemson ChicFila bowl. I finally came back to my senses just in time to watch them drive down and beat us.

1995 Indy bowl. I thought we were back for good. We sorta were but Dinardo made some terrible coaching hires and it quickly evaporated.

The 2002 Sugar was fun. We played not to lose the second half though.

The 87 Gator was fun to watch at home as was the 2005 Peach.

My favorite to watch on TV may have been the 2010 Cotton. We dominated A$M and TM7 was born that night (even though he was wearing #14 at the time).
