No disrespect (Jordy?). But I attended that game. Great win, but not an all-time great for me.

My first year at LSU was 1979. We played #1 USC. Incredible lead-up and game. I got to meet John Robinson before the big game... I still remember this game like it was yesterday. What a battle. Definitely one of my favorites.

The 1982 Bobby Bowden Florida State game was magical. Fog game with the field flooded with oranges.

Curley's big win in Tuscaloosa was special in 1993.

Kicking Steve Spurrier's top ranked 1997 team was awesome.

I was in the Dome when we upset Oklahoma in 2004 for the Nick Saban's Championship. I cried.

The Les Miles' 2011 Tuscaloosa game was incredible. Although, a long night for me.

But the 2019 Tuscaloosa' Bama game was the BEST.

These are my favorites. Yours may be completely different... So many big wins for our Tigers.

Amen, man. I wasn't around for the first couple you listed, so I'll take your word for it.

In the context of regular season games like the previous poster mentioned though, I still have to put '03 UGA up there among games I attended. Same with '07 Florida. I mean, those were national championship seasons as well.

By no means am I dismissing the '19 Bama game as being part of the debate, but it's just not my personal favorite.

This is still my #1. As bad as the Bama streak was, Florida had beaten us 9 times in a row going into the ‘97 game. They had been to 6 straight SEC championships (winning 5) and were coming off of a national championship season in ‘96.

It’s one of my earliest memories of being at an LSU football game as well, so there’s some nostalgia for me.
