It's been brought up, the dissapointment of losing this game next year... What's your favorite memory from this storied series? Unfortunately I am not old enough to have witnessed the "Barn Burner" or the "earthquake game" but here are a few of my fondest memories

Flynn to Byrd - classic Les, just a whirlwind of emotion. Unfortunately I was not able to be there as we had peewee football that morning and werent able to make the trip to BR but one i'll never forget. Still can't believe they ran a freaking play

In 2016 my brother got married that night, we were watching on tv at the reception. The whole wedding party thoguht we won the game, huge celebration. It was several minutes before we realized we lost. Next morning as i was headed back to BR news broke of Les being let go. The end of an era.

Leonard ripping them apart in 2015 for 228 yards after their DB's talked trash all week was glorious. He was unstoppable. Will never forget him scoring that TD into the north EZ after tossing that DB like a ragdoll.

Last season was another whirlwind of emotion. Totally unsure of how the season would go, thought we were ready to make a statement and beat them like a drum. Got to enjoy this one back home with friends screaming at the TV with a fire going. Pig Cage with a heckuva play to save the day was awesome. Drank way too much bourbon that night.

My fondest came in 2018, cole tracy!!! Went up there with my brother and a friend. Friend went too deep in the brown water on friday night at the bar, it was a scorcher on saturday, he left early. Bad mistake. My brother and i (although he did have a nap in the stadium) stayed till the end and saw the winning kick go through. Aubie fans were devestated.

OU and UT will surely provide some exciting atmosphere's and a new challenge. Hopefully we can get Auburn on the schedule more often than not.

Twille pick in 1995. I feel like that game brought back the energy the program lacked for about 6 years.

My freshman year was the 2001 game. It had been moved to the end of the season due to 9/11 and we went to our first SEC championship after we won. Rushed the field.

I know a lot of older fans say this isn't really a rivalry and it'll be fine, but LSU v Auburn have been some of my favorite games.

I attended both the 2001 and 2007 games and both were great environments. 2007 was the better game with an epic ending, 2001 punched our ticket to our first SEC CG which we'd go on to win and had some memorable moments still, like Clayton's hit on the Auburn kick returner and TGBFT getting into it with the Auburn kicker at halftime.

The Saban/Miles vs Tubs years was the peak of the series. Talk about some battles.

Tommy Hodson to Eddie Fuller the earthquake game.
What is so great is it was the same play called. This time Fuller had his feet inbounds and the Auburn defensive lineman was one step away from sacking Hodson on the play.
I will NEVER forget that play. Was at the game..Crazy !

Tony Moss was a coach for us when we were little kids. He told us you could scream at the top of your lungs to the guy next to you and couldnt hear a thing

2001 was one of the best nights in Tiger Stadium history and and one of the best in my 11 year old life.

Raion Hill, with a purple rod in his leg, returning two interceptions for touchdowns in the 4th quarter (one of them a 2-pt defensive PAT) while this was happening. I was in the stadium, it was a wild night.

The home Auburn games always hold a special place in my heart.

-2015 Taking my now wife to her first LSU game and it being the 2015 LF7 beat down of Auburn.
- 2021 though we lost my 12 year old son still says to this day that he had the time of his life. Made friends with some students in the student section and was high fiving them after big plays. He can’t wait to go back to the Auburn game this year
-2011 my first ever LSU game as an adult
-2013 beating an undefeated Auburn in the pouring down rain

Not my #1 favorite but there is a special place in my heart for the 2005 game when Auburn missed 5 field goals
