I'm sure many of you are/were students at LSU at some point. What would have said the best 4 years possible to be in the student section were? 90s obviously exciting baseball. mid 2000s exciting football. late 80s/early 90s good basketball


im ending my time here, and it's been great. Just wish a few more things would have fallen right, in regards to athletics

2006 - 2009

3 major sports with huge years.

Throw in a few women's final fours.

I'm biased because it was when I was a student there but '84-89 was pretty good. Football was consistently good (not great) but exciting nonetheless going to two Sugar Bowls for the first time in over 20 years, Baseball was just getting started but went to its first CWS in that period, and Basketball was excellent - a final 4 and round of eight appearance. That '86 team's run was as exciting as any sports period for LSU I can remember. Just my opinion though.

Things haven't been so bad the last 4 years and there are very few better periods.
It sure wasn't back when it was 0/11 vs Bama, Doc Hontas practiced Tiger Proctology, or Jerry letting Vegas Vince get control of the Rag.
I'm sure some Curley era grads will chime in.

If you'd have told anyone back then we'd start out the 21st Century winning 9/15 over Bama, you'd have been fit for a straightjacket.

These are good times, enjoy.

Was a student from Fall 2005 to spring 2010 (5 year degree). I went to the Men's Final Four and the 2007 NC in that span, plus enjoyed attending regular season games for all three major sports. It'll be hard to top this, even if you throw out 2009-2010.
