It's taken two years, but with aTm last week and the pigs this week it seemed to me that fans were finally enjoying themselves in the stadium again. Being in constant contention for national championships makes us lose sight of just how nice it is to win an SEC game, no matter how "meaningless". Nice win tigers.

I spent 20 years years hoping to win and the last 10 years afraid to lose.

It's hard to say which one is better.

Pretty much. Every game matters and every victory is great, no matter how it was earned.

Tiger Rag made it's return to Tiger Stadium, we devastated Arky fans with an unlikely 4th quarter comeback, and we got a glimpse of the future with Jennings.

Today was a damn good day. Negatigers can STTDB.

One of my favorite games is 2010 Tennessee. That's one I'll remember 30 years from now.

I've always appreciated every W and I take no SEC games for granted. I don't mind my heart beating on the outside of my chest for the kind of ending we saw today. I loved it. That last drive was a beautiful thing. Landry's catch was mighty fine.

Great post.

LSU winning in the last few minutes with the players we had on the field was the icing on the cake for a very exciting game to watch.

I am very happy it ended the way it did, because if the Tigers had lost the Rant would be have exploded my PC!!!

I truly haven't felt this way after a win in a long time. I don't care that it was Arky. The game was amazing.

I understand what you're saying. Complex feelings of fandom.

That being said, 75-0 win over bama would also be just as fun. Uknowit.

I think it sucks that the college system has made it so that every win has to be in dominant fashion or it isn't a good win. Winning is hard enough to do on a consistant basis and is the overall point of the contest.

We all know that LSU my play down to their opponent. It isn't a big surprise, so deal with it and enjoy the W. Good teams find a way to win, even when they are supposed to.

I guess I'm being too level headed for most on here, but you could all do yourselves a huge favor by understanding the big picture and not get so wrapped up on things that you think matter when they really don't.

This team could have easily packed it in after Ole Miss and they have continued to fight. I think that speaks volumes for them considering a few breaks going their way could have changed the season tremendously.

LSU played to win against aTm as oppose to playing not to lose. They played not to lose against arkansas.

One thing is for sure for me. Had LSU won 41-17 I wouldn't remember this game by the end of January, 2014. As it was, I will remember the day the freshman center, snapped the ball to the freshman QB, who hit the freshman WR to complete an improbable 99 yard drive to win the game. The fact that it was a bad Arkansas team will be an afterthought.
