2012 wad the worst. Chavis kept blitzing Micah Eugene off the edge and he kept getting pushed out the way by Cyrus Koudnjio. Every single play. They had a screen pass TD whenever they decided to deploy it.

12’ and 14’ were both games we should have 100% won. That being said… 12’ is worse because we had a real shot that year.

That was such an emotional game

We beat them in 07 in Nick's first game against Lsu. They didn't mention that.


That was at Bama. They were talking about the ‘08 game because it was Saban’s 1st game back in Tiger Stadium—not counting his 1 with the Dolphins in ‘05—and comparing it to Lane’s 1st game back at Vaught-Hemingway.

‘12


My freshman year. Huge leadup, we looked like we could win it and get revenge for the natty. With a few minutes left, Borne says over the stadium PA to stay off the field, and I knew right there we had jinxed it.

12 and 14 were gut wrenching especially 2012.

You need to just sell your LSU/Bama tickets from now on.

Miles was infamous for stealing defeat from the jaws of victory.

14 was one I blocked out for years until I foolishly watched highlights. There was no excuse not to win that one.
We had it in hand and then Dan Borne jinxed it when he said please do not rush the field on the PA. Then Vadal Alexander gets the personal foul and it’s all downhill from there.

Never been more demoralized as a football fan than after that 2012 game. Brutal.

Is that when Yeldon caught that pass at the end? I swear I felt my soul leave my body in that game
