If you want to talk about missed field goals, maybe we should bring up 1998. In that game, something happened that none of us will EVER see again: the LSU kicker missed field goals off of each upright AND off the crossbar. That was some crazy unlucky shite. Also, I believe Bama scored TWO TD's off of tipped balls.

That game fricking killed me. After that game, I really thought that we would never beat those frickers in Tiger Stadium.

Don't forget the dropped TD by Booty in the EZ which would have won the game.

Picked off after it went through his hands.

..and don't forget the shanked 25 FG by Ronnie Lews in 1984 at the end of the 14-14 tie.

Why are y'all trying bring me down as I prepare for the holidays? Think happy thoughts, say the 1997 game, where we went into their house and shut them out 27-0 I believe (payback for the year before!)

This! And balding and 9th year Senior (or so it seemed). Fumbles in the endzone and Wiley recovers for TD.

The best part of the 97 game in Tuscaloosa, besides the score, was the halftime. The Alabama AD picked this game to honor the Alabama Baseball team which finished 2nd in the CWS to guess who, LSU. Of course the LSU contingent in the end zone were chanting "We're number one".

My wife thought that was bad taste, I thought it was fun.

They could be pissed if they missed chip shot field goals, but that's not what happened. Get closer if you want to blame the kicker.

I do remember that now that you said it. Was sitting in endzone corner below the band and remember the laughter. Good times indeed!

Of course. Blaming the kicker is just blatantly dishonest.

A guy on XM called in on the morning show on College Radio, and he said that the reason Bama's kicker missed so many field goals was due to his girlfriend dying!? Anybody hear that? Never mind the fact that bama used two kickers in the game...
