2000 Peach Bowl in the back of the endzone. What a great game. Georgia Tech had a really good team and it didn't look good at halftime.

Until Booty was replaced by Davey....

Rohan had nothing to do with the change. It was my TD dance between the first and second quarters that got the team motivated.
When they put my face on the bug tv screen at halftime with a bunch of cash, I got a little nervous. They mailed me a check weeks later. Thought I was going to get mugged that night because people assumed I had a few grand cash on me!!
Side note, I was standing on the PAT net at the end of the first quarter when GT had a long run for a TD. As people were screaming at me to get off of the net, I was yelling back,”it was holding....it’s coming back!!”
Great trip.

That two point conversion where Davey clearly threw off his knee always cracks me up.
The GT coach was just like WTF.

I was one of the 73000. Great game. What a catch by Reed, I truly forgot how good he was.

Man, I love watch Rohan sling it.

I was at the game.
Rohan was unbelievable.
When they put in Brandon Winey helped too. He had his hand bandaged up and was a true warrior out there.
That was the game that I knew we were going to play for the SEC title the next year. I can’t describe it. You could feel Saban would have this thing rolling going into the next season. Just a spark for the program.

Same. Was living in Atlanta at the time and it was nice to get that win in that city.

it was indeed. This was our daughter's,who was 7 at the time, first LSU football game. Living in Birmingham she thought Mommy and Daddy were the only two LSU fans. We stayed at the Hyatt downtown which was decorated purple and gold and had tons of LSU fans staying there. She was hooked that night!

Is this why we have a bowl ban?

A tale of two halves. GT squandered a lot of opportunities in the first half. Touchdown Tommy Banks had a good game too. Other than the UAB debacle that was a great season: The Tigers first home win vs Bama in decades; the Moo U OT win and program changing rebirth of Death Valley vs Tennessee.

I was at the game. It was a blast.
Gathers/Geathers killed is in the first half. He had a few sacks and several hurries. Lay second quarter, B Winey leaves the sideline in street clothes and started to walk toward the locker room. Can’t remember if he nodded or motioned, but he made a jesture to the crowd in the end zone that let everyone know he was tired of watching the BS and was on his way to suit up. Always wondered if he “sat” the first half bc Booty got the start. Not many of the guys in that team liked Booty.
Winey and Ro started the second half. The rest is history. Gathers/Geathers was nonexistent , Ro hit the hot routes and J Reed did his thing. It’s actually nice to watch Nick enjoy a win at the end of that game.

I was there and had taken a friend, a Florida fan, and we thoroughly enjoyed that game. LSU became his 2nd favorite college team that day.
After halftime, Brandon Winey went in despite not starting due to injury and totally shut down Gathers who had wreaked havoc the first half for GT.
What a memorable game and great ending to a mediocre season.
