re: Best game you’ve ever been to in Tiger Stadium?

Moo State 2000 very underrated in these conversations

Those who were there should not have any doubt - 1979 Southern Cal, with a roster of 33 future NFL draft picks, including TWELVE (12!) first round picks (Heisman winner Charles White and NFL Hall of Famers Marcus Allen, Anthony Munoz, Bruce Mathews and Ronnie Lott) against an ordinary LSU team. Other USC 1st rounders included their entire offensive line (Don Mosebar and Keith Van Horne, guards Brad Budde and Roy Foster) and defenders safety Dennis Smith, linebacker Chip Banks and safety Joey Browner.

LSU really won that game through sheer will and effort, though the scoreboard at the end said otherwise when USC was able to score with 32 seconds left on a play where their fastest receiver lined up at tight end so as to be covered by an LSU safety.



A close second would be Notre Dame 1971, when LSU stopped ND four times on fourth down plays inside of the 10 yard line - once stuffing ND's fullback from the 6 inch line.

People don't realize how good that USC team was and how awesome it was that LSU even played with them much less beat them on the field. That is recognized as the greatest Offensive line in the history of college football. That is the game that made Tiger Stadium what it became. A place no one wanted to come play. I'll also throw in Florida 1997 which laid the foundation for the greatness of this program.

1988 Auburn game LSU upset Auburn 7-6

I'm all in on LSU-USC despite the outcome.

USC - 1979
Florida St - orange borage
Florida - 1997 #1 team goes down
Florida - Tebow’s cell gets out
Va Tech - showdown of Top 8 teams
Beamer gets Balled

1972 LSU 17 Ole Miss 16. With 1 second remaining Jones hit Brad Davis at the corner of the goal line of the South End Zone to tie it. Rusty Jackson kicked the extra point to win it. I was in the North End Zone snd didn’t get a good look at it. I was also at the game 2 years earlier to watch Casanova and Burn return 3 punts for TD’s in that 61-17 blowout in Archie’s Last Game. Come to think of it, I’ve never been to an Ole Miss game we lost. I remember someone painting Go to Hell Ole Miss on the Assembly Center roof. In those days they were the team we hated the most. The 70’s made Bama the enemy.

LSU-USC 1979...I was at every game, home and away, from 77-83 and I've never been in a louder stadium. Amazing...

i dont have the extensive list many of you have but with my current hatred for a&m, that 19 game was very very enjoyable
