we had slightly more total yards: 559-541. We were clearly the better team, but we didn't "dismantle" them.




LSU gave up 3 cheap TDs: a trick play where the QB fakes looking to the sideline and then quick snaps it while the defense isn't ready, a facemask that spun a punt returner away from coverage for a long td and a mind-blowing press coverage call with a minute left and the game out of reach where a top 5 DB gave up an 85-yard bomb to make the score look respectable. When you give up 3 fluke TDs in the same game and still win, you dominated that game.

Not me...I'm bad luck, apparently.

I've gone in 2009, 2013, and 2017. Nice stadium. The fans are hit or miss...the worst experience was honestly in 2013. They were a little more arrogant and in your face after that game. I guess, we all saw it as they've fully taken control of the SEC West and SEC at that point. You've also got a bunch of out-of-state fans/students that go there just because they are winning. They are the worst, and not true fans imo.

The campus is fine. Truthfully, I didn't particularly care for it. While attempting to keep the antebellum architecture, it had that "new brick" look that was pretty sterile.

The tailgating is pretty corporate, but not a bad tailgating scene. The downtown strip is fun...but again, late night (especially after the win), it's a little more aggressive and obnoxious.
