substitute 2007 Florida for Miles and 2003 UGA for Saban and I agree with the rest of your list. I guess it all depends on what you mean by "greatest game"

I'll throw few out there...

The Ole Miss game under Saban when we beat Eli. (Chad Lavalais bulldozed his way thru the center to stop the their last drive)

For Miles is would be either the dominance of the 2011 Au game or that wild Fla game in '07. (Hester was a boss that day)

2007 UF for Les or any regular season game from 2011 (excluding MSU).

Greatest game for Miles in terms of excitement was ‘07 Florida. In terms of dominance...I’d say ‘07 Virginia Tech.

I actually agree, and edited

We fricking destroyed them. Unfortunately after that those types of games were few and far between outside of 2011.

This. USC had two heisman winners and four future NFL Hall of famers and LSU would have won if not for a phantom facemask call.

Dominance don’t forget about Miles in the peach bowl against Miami. We beat them like 40-3 or something.

2011 Oregon could also be in contention for Miles. HUGE build up for the game, #3 Oregon vs. #4 LSU, everyone touting Oregon's high-powered offense. LSU proceeded to blow the wheels off of them taking a 30-13 lead through the fourth quarter, ultimately winning 40-27, with Oregon scoring its last TD against backups with like 10 seconds left in the game. Set the tone for the entire 2011 season that would be the GOAT CFB season but for 1/9/12.

I think one of the greatest games ever played at LSU was a loss. LSU v. USC, 1979. USC was without a doubt one of greatest teams ever that year. A roster loaded with furture NFL HoFers. They came to Baton Rouge and LSU gave them total hell and probably should have won. USC ended up winning on a controversial roughing the QB call. LSU would later dominated them in LA.

Mac --- too young
Dinardo --- 97 UF
Saban -- 2003 NC
Miles --- 2011 UA 9-6 win
Orgeron -- 2018 AU

Is there a reason why we skipped the 80s? I'll do what I can remember

Arnsparger --- 86 TA&M
Archer --- Earthquake game
Hallman --- 93(?) beat Bama, stopped their unbeaten streak

I can only possibly be fond of his last one.

ETA, Although there was one Miss St game where Jesse Daigle went off at QB for nearly 400 yards that I think sort of kindly of ONLY because of that.

I'm curious how the Oregon games goes if it was played in November. Deanthony Thomas was kinda awful and misused against LSU and probably cost them the game. He was a monster when he moved to RB.
