Dont overthink it...
The answer is 2007 Florida game, final drive with all the 4th down conversions and game winning TD.

Arkansas 2013 Dural Go Ahead TD
Actually had a conversation about this one the other day. It was a 99 yard game winning drive right after Mett got hurt. Jennings was a freshman, and I remember thinking holy shite we have found a QB for the next few years.
Unbelievable drive, but boy was I wrong

This was an actual drive. The rest feel like chunk plays stitched together.

1972- Bert Jones drives LSU down the field for the winning touchdown against Ole Miss which was scored with one second left on the clock

Just from an efficiency standpoint, I remember we had a 21-play 90+ yard TD drive against South Carolina in 2003. This was the week after the home loss to Florida and we needed to get back on track. We wore them down and poured it on that game. One of the most dominant wins of that season.

Came here to say this. The most Les Miles thing I’ve ever seen.
My buddies and I were hysterical. “13 times in a row and you cap it with a pass!”

I will vote for the last Hester touchdown drive in the 07 Florida game because it led to a national championship, but I have to mention another one that I witnessed that will always stick out in my mind-
1972 Ole Miss
Bert Jones to Brad Davis.
Both of those games featured Tiger Stadium at its very best.

idk why we are acting like there are others to even discuss. Maybe we can ask about the second best drive. Plus most of these discussions brought forth arent even drives. They have a 45 yard td in them or some other play like pass interference.

Nobody has mentioned it yet, but what about the go-ahead TD drive near the end of the Reliaquest Bowl, where the Nussmeier led Tigers marched 99 yards before punching it in on a short pass to take a 35-31 lead-- first lead of the game for LSU, trailed 28-14 in the 3rd quarter

Those are all very good, and I would add the final drive against Iowa in the Capital One Bowl (before the "Hold Mary").
I will say though I've always been partial to non-scoring drives that seal games. There is no better feeling than to be up less than a score, with the ball in hand with 4+ minutes left, and just keep making first downs while watching the opponent whither.
Oh, and how about the final drive against Tennessee 2010. Before we got to 13 men on the field, Jarrett Lee converted a 3rd and 10+ and a 4th and 10+.

2003 Matt Mauck to Skyler Green touchdown vs. Georgia. It was the climax of the most exciting game I've ever attended, and he caught it directly in front of me on first row of student section.

I was thinking about that Skyler Green touchdown but that was a long pass rather than a long drive.

4th down Hodson to Fuller, Earthquake Game. Beats Aubarn 7-6!
Posted on 10/2/24 at 3:20 pm to lsudave1
2007 Florida or 2014 Ole Miss were the first to pop in my head.
03 UGA we started at like the 45 yard line. Great kickoff return setup that TD.

Good list/choice. Can't argue there.
I'd also add the infamous "3rd and 17" drive in Austin in 2019.
Goosebumps.

From a relevance and drama standpoint that 4th quarter drive vs. Florida in 2007 is at the top.
From an improbability standpoint and degree of difficulty standpoint, it was Daniels's drive vs. FSU in 2022. LSU only needed a FG to tie the game on 2007 drive. Les just chose to pass on that option and continue to drive for a TD. LSU HAD to have a TD on the 2022 to (seemingly) tie the game. There was no other option.
Going 99 yards in 1:05 is incredible enough. Going 53 yards in 15 seconds without any TOs for a TD with 0:00 left on the clock is unbelievable.
