I was at work listening to it and it was right at quitting time, so right when I was clocking out is when the game "ended" and I was like frick frick frick frick!

Get to my car, turn on the radio and find out we won and I was like WTF?!

I was in stands. Furious, then shocked, then ecstatic

Maddest I've ever been after a win.

the Miracle in Baton Rouge


Does anyone actually call it that? A too many men on the field penalty is a miracle?

Even though we won, I left that game pissed off. Strangest thing ever leaving a game.

I literally threw my hands up in the air and walked out the front door determined to do yard work to work off the frustration and anger and to void seeing the loss. Sad, we get so disturbed by losses like that.
Then, I walked back in and one of my sons said that we won. I replayed the ending and could not believe we won. Wow, just wow!

Now the Bluegrass Miracle was different because I didn’t expect to win at that point the miracle pass was thrown..

Back when I had season tix. The guy in front of me spanked the shite out of his kid when his kid threw down his candy at the outcome. I yelled, along with the wife, “two home chokes to UT! You’re finished Les! Clock management again!”

And then we got another play.

I was in the West uppers with one of my Tenneesee friends. End of 4th quarter a bird shat on him then he had to see his team win, then lose. It was classic.

Turned off the TV. Got into a 1 min state of depression. Turned the TV back on thinking it was over and heard the back end of the announcers talking about the 13 men on the field.

Least satisfying "win" I've ever experienced.

Keep in mind, this was less than a full season since the infamous Ole Miss 2009 debacle.

Very conflicted emotions that day all in a span of about 5 minutes

Before the penalty - very pissed off we lost but sort of glad that Les will finally be on the hot seat after another clock management fiasco

After we won - psyched we got the W but pissed off that Les is going to skate by once again and continue being the laughable buffoon of CFB

I remember reading about a guy calling the porta potty outside the stadium as magic. He went in and LSU had lost. When he came out they had won.

First in person LSU game and time on campus. I was livid and shocked. Due to the shock, didn’t leave the stadium and saw us win the game.

Either way, the whole experience of Game Day, the game environment, and campus officially sold me on going to LSU.

Was sitting in the opposite end zone and thought the game was over. Shook hands with a Tennessee fan sitting in front of me. Congratulated him on the victory.

Then total confusion. Next thing I know, we're snapping the ball and running another play, scoring the winning touchdown.

Same Tennessee fan turns around, shakes my hand, and congratulates me on the victory.

Like the rest of the posts, I was never so underwhelmed to win a football game.

Typical Les Miles football.

i was in the student section and stormed out of the stadium. A cop stopped my friends and I to let us know there was a flag

He let us listen to the last play in his car.

Felt like a Loss.

I've watched replays of those last 2 plays and it is so painful to see how utterly lost the offense was on the botched snap play. Complete cluster.
