20-year Anniversary of LSU-Auburn '95

LSU 12
AUB 6 F
One of my all-time favorite games! This game came a year after the Jamie Howard Interception game, a game in which LSU allowed four defensive touchdowns.
In the first quarter, Howard hit Nicky Savioe for an early touchdown, the only touchdown of the game in fact. LSU would later add an Andre LaFleur field goal, and later a James Gillyard safety. LSU was up 12-3 after the first 15.
Auburn would add a field goal later, and LSU would have to outlast an impressive last-minute drive by Patrick Nix, and it did as Troy Twillie intercepted a Patrick Nix pass with no time left on the clock.
Auburn was ranked fifth in the nation and came in averaging 61 points a game, and the stout LSU defense, led by Gillyard, Northern and Twillie, held the Auburn Tigers to only six points.
Probably the hottest night game ever played in Tiger Stadium, as the temperature at kickoff was 86F and the heat index was 92F and remained that way virtually the rest of the way.
GEAUX TIGERS!!!

The day I became an LSU football fan. Was the first game I attended as a student my freshman year.

This game was only on Auburn's in-house pay per view if I remember correctly? Not TigerVision?

What were some things that stood out to you about this game?
I remember the humidity. One of the hottest games I've ever attended at TS. I remember seeing an LSU cheerleader crying because her ankled cramped up, and you saw several players cramping up throughout the game.

Yes it was. It was televised on the Auburn Network.
I bought the VHS for $20 from Kevin who worked in the LSU electronic department, as well as TigerVision and the LSU coaches' shows that were televised.

Was really big in putting LSU back on the map after the misery of previous seasons. It took one more coach to get it right but the game came down to end and the red zone pick sealed it, thanks to the guy that blew the whistle in the student section which rattled the Auburn QB.

I'm guessing SEC rules back then stated only the away team could televise a PPV game between to 2 SEC teams. Real shame the only way anyone saw this on TV was PPV in Alabama.

Camping with two fellow LSU grads (all three of us had just moved to Colorado that summer) in the cold, cold Yampa Valley the night of the game. We had to drive to Steamboat Springs the next morning and use a payphone to call a friend in Baton Rouge to find out who won. :CSB

This was the win where people could see the program was moving in the right direction.

What year was the Jamie Howard/DiNardo disaster? For some reason I thought it was '95.

Got married that night. Several people there had earphones in during the wedding, and one of my best friends missed to go to the game. I was not a fanatic fan at the time, and all I cared about was getting the wedding over before hunting season.
Saw the Saints get beat by Morton Anderson the next day on the honeymoon.

Freshman year, stormed the field, one of my fondest memories in Tiger stadium along with the Florida upset in 1997. That game marked the renaissance of Tiger football out of the Dark ages (Hallman era).

awesome game. my family seats have been in the southwest corner forever.
The last play, when Twillie intercepted that pass in the endzone, there was a brief silence in the south endzone bc both twillie and the receiver went to the ground at the same time. Then the north endzone erupted with cheer and we all knew what happened.

Yes I was listening on radio as well. Hard to believe the games were not televised like they are now.
