While it may seem like a lifetime ago with the way the last 4 seasons have started: LSU did not lose a nonconference regular season game from 2002 Virginia Tech until the 2016 Lambeau debacle. The streak reached the 50’s and it honestly felt like we were unbeatable in some of the ways we won.

I’d rank:

1. 2007 48-7 over VT—Total Destruction
2. 2011 40-27 over Oregon—Arguably #1
3. 2005 35-31 at Arizona State—Katrina Game
4. 2004 22-21 over Oregon State—Kickers/Rain
5. 2011 47-21 at West Virginia—Honey Badger

It would be a tie between Oregon and West Virginia for me.

This was the night I thought the streak would be broken. Down 24-7 midway through the 3rd.

Underrated:

-That Oregon St. game opener in 2004 was nuts. My bad OP didn’t even see you mentioned this one already.

-Not the greatest game in the world but I thought playing Tulane in the Superdome in 2007 was pretty cool.

North Carolina game in the Georgia Dome in 2010. Way too close of a game for an LSU team with immense talent that season.

Didn't realize how good we had it during that VT game. Especially when they crept back up into the top 4 by the end of the season.

That KY game

Oregon is my number one. I got dumped a week before and was just waaay too emotionally invested.

ASU is #2 I watched it in a motel when I was evacuated for Katrina.

I was at the Oregon State game and that was awesome. It rained so damn hard.

One of the best road games I've ever attended. Went to the beer concessions in the 3rd quarter and the guy was sold out. He told me "I haven't ever seen any shite like this in my life. You frickers drink like its no tomorrow> We ordered 4 times the normal amount to be prepared and yall still drank it all".

Oregon fans ere shite talking bigly before the game. They scattered like roaches into the night after.

I came home from over seas that summer. My dad and I with an old friend of his made the road trip. Great time.

Extremely frustrating game. We saw a 30-10 potential blowout deteriorate into a nailbiter; an LSU win only because the refs refused to throw a flag for DPI on the last play.

That was the ONLY LSU win I ever left the stadium feeling like we lost-- Tennessee game four weeks later, included.

In 03 when we beat Arizona like redhead step kids, 59-13, I knew we were gonna be a great team. Not because Arizona was salty or anything, it was just a complete dismantling of their squad in what was to become a signature Saban humiliation win. Two weeks later and we upset UGA…

Zero surprise when we went on to win the natty. That was my senior year (the first one at least) at LSU and it was a fun frickin’ time.
