Which moment most likely to make me keel over in my 70s as it happened? Warren Morris walk off most likely.

I saw a few more good moments mentioned already. The 2018 walk off FG at Auburn is easy to forget given the 2019 season. But down 11 in the 4th as a road dog and hitting that to win was huge.

*edited for correct comeback

Earthquake TD in ‘88 is a personal favorite of mine.

The Ghost run edges the Morris homer to me because football is just bigger than baseball and in the 1950's there was nothing bigger than LSU vs Ole Miss.

Besides all the other great moments mentioned here, there were also LSU/Notre Dame in 1971 in Tiger Stadium and Bert Jones to Brad Davis with 1 second left to beat Ole Miss in ‘72.

For me winning the sugar bowl over ILLINOIS IN ‘01 was huge. I started watching LSU around ‘90 so the sec championship that year culminating with a victory in NOLA was huge.

Tommy Tanks walk off is probably the purest joy from sports that I’ve ever experienced.


There's hardly a day went by since that I haven't thought about that image of that beautiful pink undergarment protruding from those powerful extended arms...it was gone, there was no doubt, I was pleased as all f*ck...two more. It almost sounds homoerotic actually.

I know Franques caught some for suggesting that White's HR was bigger than Morris', but for whatever reason I am right there with him.

Maybe not the best moment, but Mark Laird running from center field to catch a ball down the right field line after the right fielder lost the ball, might be best individual play I’ve witnessed.

I'll give a couple

batting down Tebow's last second heave in '07.

for the first time in my life, I walked out of Death Valley knowing that in the morning we would be #1 in every single poll in the country.

after the '11 Arkansas game, the scoreboard had 12-0 on the big screen.
had been going to games for about 25 years at that point. And I was beginning to think I would never see that.

another that gets overlooked because of all the big moments in the game.

2000 in CWS Final vs Stanford.

Blair Barbier made a sliding backhanded catch down the line at 3rd and threw the runner out.
Bases were loaded with 2 outs. That would have scored at least 2 and probably 3 runs had he not made that play.

1972 – Jones to Davis;. "The Night The Clock Stopped" – #6 LSU survived an upset bid from unranked Ole Miss in Tiger Stadium by winning the game on a TD pass from QB Bert Jones to RB Brad Davis. Ole Miss fans say the 1972 contest featured a few seconds of free football.

Is sure in the hell was not. One could argue that the catch in left by Pearson was the best individual play (hit or defensive) of the college World Series run. They do not win the series if not for that. Johnson said without that play they don’t win it all.

Until someone hit a walk off grand slam in the bottom of the ninth to win the college World Series game 3, nothing beats Morris’ homer.
