When was the last COLD game in TS

Got in this conversation last night. We were discussing how the opener is always hot as balls, but then got to talking about late season colder games and realized it has been a while.
I do remember heavy jackets and hot chocolate smuggled in a thermos, but for the life of me I could not tell you when. Seems like it has been a long time. What is the last really cold game you can recall taking place in Tiger Stadium?
(For the tree huggers, this is not a veiled attempt to start a global warming discussion)

legit cold... prob early 2000's for me. Either a bama or ole miss game.

31-0 was the coldest I've ever been to and it sucked as bad as the score.

I remember the game against Notre Dame in the late 90s was cold, wet, and absolutely miserable.

1997. ND won 24-6. It wasn't that cold. I'd say low 50's. The rain didn't start until after halftime.
ETA:
I wonder if it's even been below freezing during a game, excluding wind chill.

The upper deck caught sleet at the ND game. I was in the south end zone facing a misting north wind.
I have attending games since 1967. It is the coldest I haven't been in TS.

Troy?

I remember going to the Grantland Rice bowl in Tiger Stadium as a kid (maybe 1974). It was in December during the day. I don't remember anything about the game (as it was a Division II bowl) except that it was during the day and I was really cold.

The Auburn '01 game that they moved to the end of the season due to 9/11 was relatively cold, though not miserable. The last time I was miserable in Tiger Stadium was Manziel's SO year--so I guess '13--it was cold and raining and sucked.

I was underdressed, but the coldest I can remember being was the 2008 game against Troy...the comeback game.
Posted on 8/20/17 at 11:12 am to Barrister
I think the 2008 comeback win over Troy was pretty cold. I skipped that game due to the forecast.
As a postscript, LSU should have lost that game...as defending national champions.

Troy was in the lower 40's I believe
Posted on 8/20/17 at 11:14 am to Hiphopanonymous
I was coming to say Troy also. One of the least enjoyable games for both temp and actual game I've ever attended.
Flip side, hottest had to be Florida a few years ago or app state that got moved to mid day for a hurricane I think it was.

Was coming here to say Troy in 08. Was my freshman year...left at halftime as is tradition.

2013 A&M game had a brutal cold front blow through.
Posted on 8/20/17 at 11:22 am to Barrister
31-0 Against Alabama in 02. So brutal on both sides cold and the game.

Troy game in 08 was cold. My arse was frozen to the seat.

LSU vs Ole Miss October 27, 2001.
The wind was blowing from the north all game and even 2 heavy coats couldn't keep us comfortable.
Also Eli Manning tore up LSU that day.
