Highlights of 2000 Mississippi St vs LSU overtime game

I was there and it was a great game. One significant play that wasn’t shown was the kickoff return after MSU went up 31-17. We fumbled and several maroon jerseys jumped on it. We had a great special team player (#49 Ryan ????) who dove into the pile and somehow came out with the ball. He was as quoted post game something like ‘I fought to get my hands on the ball and violently head-butted until he let go.’

They had all the momentum and if they had recovered that fumble we probably would have been down by 21 or at least 17. Instead we mounted a great come back.

Thanks for sharing. I haven't seen a full clip of that game online in awhile. I was a sophomore that year. As said by someone else, that was a fun year. Also a very tough year. My father died in a sudden car accident two days before the Tennessee game. I didn't go. I watched and cried in TV and after the crowd cleared out went to our seats in the southeast lower bowl and passed out

I think the boys from the boot channel has whole game uploaded in great quality

That was actually a great game.

2000 was such a fun season after the let downs of 98 and 99. It helped this was my junior year in college.

Peterman at DE, I'd kinda forgotten about that

Wow, a walk down memory lane.

Say what you will about Dinardo but he recruited great skilled players. Booty could throw laser beams. The stable of RBs were some hard nosed baws.

Two things I hope Coach Kelly brings back:

Those exact uniforms and those end zones. Something like this.

Was my first time on the sidelines as a “guest” of LSU training staff - on MSU side of the field.

Towards the end of the game - and in OT, I’ve NEVER heard anything that loud.
The crowd was so loud, my host couldn’t hear me yelling 6” from his ear. Finally gave up. When we won? Holy crap…

Surreal.

That was my freshman year at LSU. Beating them, Bama and UT was huge for the program.
