Because we hadn't won anything yet. When you start winning championships, everybody has to come take a piece.

I always thought it was funny that a kicker was trying to big league band members as if he was a real football player. I'm sure a lot of those band members were bigger than him

And then the karma he got by missing the field goal later was just the icing on top.

Was at that game- I dare anyone to try and convince me that they've seen a game atmosphere anywhere close to that over the last 5-7 years. Just can't find one


2010 bama, 2012 bama, 2014 ole miss, and 2016 bama would be the only ones to even mention.

All good atmospheres, but this game sits at the top of my list. And there are others sandwiched in between the ones you mentioned as well.

Fun night. My first semester at LSU.

Hard to believe that was 16 years ago.

Thanks for sharing

Thx for posting highlights.

Ron Franklin & Mike Gottfried were so good. When you heard Franklin's voice, you knew it was a big game.

I don't think there are any others on the level of those in the last 7 years.
A lot of neutral site matchups.

I got a commemorative band video from someone that year that is usually distributed to the band and family members. It showed everything from halftime performances to band practices, among other things. There were band members in practice wearing T-shirts after that game that said “F#%& Auburn”. Nice.

My memory of that happening was much more dramatic than the video showed. Another 10 years of memory degradation and I would have had our band beating the kickers with their horns. thanks for ruining that...

After the video wraps up, that's when the chant started and I specifically remember full beverages being dumped onto the Auburn section from the upper level of the south end zone. So, you remember correctly!
