Did we have to be at the one we want to relive?

If so, it's between 07 natl champ, and 07 FLA game. The latter was the most exciting thing I've get experienced.

LSU fla in 97 was on a different level.
First taste of sucess in a long time... now we're for the most part a spoiled bunch.

When Dinardo got the ball rolling again at LSU, Tiger Stadium would get a lot louder without the East Upper Deck than it does now with the deck.

A whole different class of fan then. Not as many corporate blocks of seats being given out at the water cooler during the week. The people had been sitting in their same seats that were passed down through generations in their family.

Me too. I was a UCLA grad student so arrived in Tiger Stadium thinking i would root for USC. Instead I got swept away by the noise, the crowd, the whole tiger stadium mystique. awesome place.

Florida 2007

I have never been so overcome with emotion and dramatic intensity at a sporting event as I was on that night. All those damn 4th down conversions. Wow.

Looks at inspection like Florida 2007 is the top choice. The USC announcement and the consecutive execution of 4th downs, combined with TeBow crying and the game being on CBS national TV at night in Tiger Stadium, all add up to it being the most common game chosen. Hard to argue with this choice, especially since it was a big part of the way to winning the national championship in 2007.

UF 07. The hester drive was the best football experience of my life. Kicking the shite out of Notre Dame in 06 was pretty fun too.

UGA '03

Blown coverage on a screen pass that results in a 93 yard td pass on an otherwise epic day for our defense, and our crowd got louder than UGA's even though they had just scored. Everyone in the whole stadium dismissed it as the fluke that it was.
The LSU faithful were praising a season-long defensive performance that was unreal - that was one of the first tds we'd given up at home all year. Our fans completely drowned out any noise coming from the UGA section.
Then, Devery reels off a kickoff return out to midfield. The crowd found another gear.
Then a few productive offensive plays immediately followed. The crowd finds another gear.
And then Mauck finds Green for the catch. amazing.

Florida '07 for reasons already mentioned. The best and most exciting game I've ever seen.

Yeah, the fans that didn't show up to games 90-94.

LSU v. Oklahoma BCS in NOLA; OU was SI's "Team for the Ages." Post-game; saw a woman walking a baby bengal tiger on the sidewalk in front of our tailgate; thought I was hallucinating. Great, great day/night.

I wasn't even considering the reaction to the USC loss when I said 07 FLA. That just reassures my pick. I remember walking in the stadium and telling my two roommates "this stadium is magic, no way Florida pulls it out". They gave it a damn good shot

For me, the '95 game vs. Arky. I was in France that autumn. WRNO Worldwide on shortwave radio was the only way to catch games from the USA back then. I couldn't catch the signal that well in general & not at all that day. It was killing me all day to find out if the 6 yrs of consecutive losing seasons had ended. I called my parents the next morning to find out. I had to settle for reading about it in Tiger Rag in Jan. The mag arrived so late b/c of a postal strike lasting for weeks in Dec. I wish at least I could have listened to it live to end those yrs of frustration, 5 of which I was a student @ LSU.

I wish I could have made this game. It was my Dad's last game to see the Tigers. Herb Tyler, Kendall Cleveland, Gabe Northern and the boys gave my Dad a great last game. I have the game program Dad had from the game (he passed away not too long after, and I found it in his Tiger closet). I would not have expected anyone to mention this game, but now that you did, I have to change my vote to that game. It would be great to have been there with Dad to see the Tigers roll the hogs for his last game ever.
