Some corrections:

The Ronnie Lewis "bird" game was the 14-14 tie with Alabama in 1985 after he missed a short FG.

The Miami of Ohio loss was the second game of 1986. We lost 21-12 in a torrential rain.
(We had beaten 4th ranked A&M 35-17 the week before in T.Hodson and H.Williams' debuts in DV.)Our only other loss in 1986 was to Ole Miss 21-19 when David Browndyke missed a short FG that was at a severe angle.

The 44-3 loss to Miami of Florida was in 1988 in a monsoon. Interestingly, we won the SEC title that year..

The Oregon State streaker game was in 2004.

The loss to Alabama in DV in 2002 was 31-0.

The 1982 Fla State orange game was November 1982, with the winner playing Nebraska in the Orange Bowl. LSU had not gone to a NYD bowl since Jan. 1, 1974 vs. Penn State. the students went crazy throwing oranges, going onto the field and the goal posts, and even throwing seat cusions all over the student section. (I was a sophomore in the stands and on the field that night :)
Before the game, the costumed Mike ran down an LSU student dressed as a 'Seminole' and broke his 'spear' in half. The studenet section went fricking bonkers.


The contraflow game was against Idaho in 1998 when Georges was approaching La. People were mad we gave up over 450 yards to Idaho...off the top of my head, I think the score was like 53-20 or something like that.


One game nobody has mentioned was the 2010 Tennessee debacle and almost loss..Tenn had 14 men in the end zone...
