In honor of Paul Johnson's last game.. LSU beats GT's arse 38-3 in the 2008 CFA Bowl.

LSU headed to chilly Atlanta on New Years Eve 2008 after a disappointing 2008 season. LSU's much maligned 2008 defense ended the season on a strong note.
We all thought Jordan Jefferson was the next big thing. Les was still Les. Running a fake punt pass up 38-3 midway through the 4th.
The crowd was 80/20 Georgia Tech fans. By the 3rd quarter Georgia Tech fans were making paper airplanes out of the pamphlets in their bowl game seat gift bags and raining them down on the lower levels. Then they filed out.

Member when the triple option was supposed to eat us up?

Paul Johnson's fake punt attempt with a DE on 4th and 9 was GOAT.

Ah those were the days. We use to call Jarrett Lee Scary Lee and we wanted Jefferson to play over Lee. Then when Jefferson finally got his shot, we wanted Lee to play over Jefferson. Those were some crazy years

It was pretty incredible how dominant LSU was that night, in light of a rocky regular season and sickening losses v. Georgia, Florida, Ole Miss and a BAD Arkansas team.
If I remember correctly Ga Tech was 10-2 and was favored in that game

I remember having trouble following the game because Georgia Tech's unusual uniform that evening looked like LSU's dark jerseys/ gold pants & helmet combo from the upper level stands. I know the Tigers did wear the purples when they played there in 2000.

Was at that game. The paper airplanes were pretty funny.

This was definitely a weird bowl game. Has college football changed this much since then? This game seems like decades ago.

Ah yes, when Paul Johnson said something along the lines of being disappointed in the quality of Ga Tech’s opponent when the bowl pairings were announced. Such an idiotic thing to say on so many levels. I enjoyed watching them get their asses kicked last night, too. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

Had tix but family health issues so just didnt go. Got them last minute(i think they were plastic on a lanyard with robots battling or something on them?). I thought “oh well, we probably lose anyway” then watched and was so pissed I couldnt go ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

I was there, we thought JJ was the 2nd coming. Welp

LSU didn’t stand a chance agains that triple option.
Jordan Jefferson was going to take LSU into infinity and beyond.
