re: The best throw you've seen in Tiger Stadium

Flynn to Byrd

so how is it better than a 50 yard bomb to the corner of the endzone while on the run on 4th down to seal the game.

The actual throw isn't even close to being one of the best ever. Even adding the circumstances, it still isn't there, especially since a field goal would have won it

Give me JR on the run, Mauck throwing while getting hit, etc. over that one

You can use the same type of argument with JR's throw because all they needed was 10 yards to get the first. It was a great throw, but it wasn't a necessary throw because there was more than a minute left and they still had a timeout left.

The Flynn throw was necessary and was the last offensive play of the game. The FG never could have happen because the time would have likely run out, so that is moot.

I am not trying to take away from the other throws that LSU QBs have made, but you have to use the situation when it comes down to it because a lot of them are incredible.

I still have dreams about that 01 Florida game.

You can argue this all day ... and have a point. This is what I thought of when I saw the thread. My personal favorite was Hodson to Fuller in 1988. I was in the student section and asked my wife to marry me at the game. It would have really sucked if we lost that game. Our kids are tired of hearing about the earthquake catch

1988 Earthquake Game vs Auburn: Hodson to Fuller. Perfect pass under pressure.

Since the ASU game was supposed to be in TS in 2005 but because of Katrina we played there but was still the home team I will go with the throw to end the game.

Quote: "Considering that it kept our BCS hopes alive, and won the game for us, I'd say it was a better throw."

And it came with one second left. I was there and the crowd screamed so loudly when he caught it, I thought we had a another Earthquake Game on our hands. Hodson to Fuller. Flynn to Byrd. By the way, this year is the 25th Anniversary of that game, and Auburn is a home game this year.

Anyway, it's kinda hard to decide. Bert Jones to Jimmy Ledeaux (the day that time stood still) or Hodson to Fuller (Earthquake Game) or Flynn to Byrd (one second left).
