Take away just a couple balls that didn't bounce their way that year and Miami could have easily been in the 2005 BCS National Championship game.



You must be joking.

In the first game of the season Miami lost 10-7 and outgained Fla St. 313-170 and got 21 first downs to 9 for Florida State.

In the last game of the season on their last possession they were down 4 to Georgia Tech with the ball inside the 25 and threw an interception.

but do you actually understand the definition of "dominating". Seems like you are making the level of competition a relative factor and not considering the performance of LSU itself

Agreed. He seems to be changing gears talking about most impressive rather than most dominating. The 93-0 game would probably have to top the list of most dominating, with the 77-0 Rice game probably topping the list for "modern era" games.

In terms of most impressive domination, I'd have to say the '07 Va. Tech game. I can't think of another time in our history when a team of that quality was so completely destroyed by an LSU team on both sides of the ball. And the fact that it was also key to our making the National Championship Game helps, too.

There's just no way any 7 point game can be considered in the same ballpark in terms of domination of the game. In terms of solely defensive domination, it absolutely qualifies. But not general domination.

2003 vs. Arizona

Actually OU average 439 YPG that year and LSU averaged 418. We beat them by 7 points. The difference being a defensive touchdown by Marcus Spears. Unbelievable how many idiots don't understand the meaning of the word "dominating"

2007 Va Tech

there were more dominant performances, but Va Tech ended the season in the Orange Bowl, unlike some other opponents LSU killed

MEH!! Nice game but not close IMO!!!

It did get us into the BCS championship though.

LSU vs. Bama 1982 if you can get an old copy of this game you will see one of the most defensively dominating games ever in college football.

Rice game in I think 77. Carlos Carson had 7 tds and for the most part they were long. Then the bama game in Birmingham in 84 I think.
the nd game was awsome also. Hell arizona was great. Good God we could go on and on. Dont forget Ole miss !! you know archie who

Well, obviously, you can't be suggesting that we were less dominant against VT, so you must be going on the "when it really mattered" criterion. Are you suggesting the VT game didn't "really matter"?

If so, I'd suggest you're wrong. That game got us into the NC game with two losses. Take that game away and replace it with a win for us over practically anybody else and a loss for VT to practically anybody else, and we don't go to the NC game. VT probably does instead.

Miami didn't even show up for that game

One of the more common after-the-fact made-up myths about that game. The truth is that Miami came out fired up and playing well early. Miami didn't leave the fight at home, LSU beat it out of them.
