Wasn't this Jamie Howard's best game of his career?

Seems like the game you are talking about was in 1994. The one where he Jarrett Lee'd us several times in the 4th quarter?

I was fortunate in that I was too busy trying to score with chicks and play in rock bands in my LSU days (1991-1995), so I really wasn't paying attention to any football...let alone LSU. I remember having some players in my economics class that the professor would give a hug to after a loss, though I don't even know who they were. I did go back in 2000 to take some premed classes and I think I saw Rohan once. I should have paid more attention.

God, that was awful. I don't think I've seen that since it happened.

Yeah, the dark ages. I remember (barely) drinking unhealthy amounts of liquor in the student section in the early 90s. Every now and then we'd check the action on the field if it was still close.

My last year there we finally got to a bowl - Poulan Weed Eater Independance
My friends and I were one of the first to storm the field after we beat MSU. One of my pals got stopped by a guard, but when he saw all the humanity behind him, he let him go.

Amazing to think that MSU coach would take us to the top 10 years later and then become the Tiger's public enemy #1 in 20 years.

Howard actually had a tremendous game that afternoon. We were down 27-7 early in the fourth. Jessie Daigle started,Chad Loup played and maybe Ryan Huffman. Howard comes in as a true freshman and we took the lead, 28-27 with about a minute left.

Enter the defensive braintrust of Hudson "Curley" Hallman and Mike Bugar (who made "Malveto" look like Lombardi). Auburn dinks and dunks and nails a 43 yd fg with :04 left to win.

The year he lost to Southern Miss. put the nail in his coffin.

I was there and on the field, too. Great pictures with the scoreboard in the background and also with the band. That was a good time.

You had to remind me...didn't you?
His picture should be in the dictionary next to the word 'disaster.' Only the capt. Edward Smith had a worse track record.

Ouch! Bad karma to even include this '94 game, or '92, or invoke Hallman's name at all. I remember this horror only too well. The kiddies on this Rant don't. It's good to remind ourselves, young and old, of how bad, bad, bad it can be.

fg,saftey and touchdown with failed two pt conversion.

We actually put up a fight for 2.5 quarters. Actually led 3-0 and trailed 10-5 at halftime. Wore us down in the fourth.

I was a student at LSU for the following years:

Year Overall Conference
1989....4-7..........2-5
1990....5-6..........2-5
1991....5-6..........3-4
1992....2-9..........1-7

Thanks for the memories Mike and Curley. Dinardo taking us to Shreveport his first year seemed like the greatest thing ever.

That was the point of this entire thread. Didn't expect so many people to respond, but most are happy to laugh about these days now that they are done for a while (hopefully forever)

No kidding. I remember thinking how ridiculously awesome it was that we were in a bowl game, and in our home state none the less. The thought of the Sugar Bowl never crossed my mind

If there is just 1 (and i do mean only 1) advantage to not having the best football history in the world its that there is no such thing as a "spoiled" or "fairweather" Gamecock fan.

My husband and I sat through every last second of each and every loss during Archer, Curley, Dinardo's years...we had so many car keys shaken in our faces at the start of the 3d quarter it was ridiculous...UF and Bama fans were the worst...altho the A&M fans could be horrible, too. I remember telling some arrogant UF fans that what goes up must come down and that they would have their day...and they laughed...then, of course, Spurrier left them It was brutal sitting thru most of those games...the bright spot was MSU was always our bitch . The young fans today have no earthly idea what it took to be a Tiger fan in those days...these are the glory days...but I find it hysterical when posters on this board rip Miles or in the past, Saban for decisions they made...or cry about missed tackles, poor passes, etc...folks you haven't seen anything like those times in the 90s. Whew!
