Yes, 2000 TENN was an amazing game. Making it to anything the next few days was hard.
But for me it was the start of an end of an amazing era in TS.
Over the next few years the PC crowd took charge.

The CCC began to take ahold of the students drinking in TS and around campus etc etc etc see 4 years later there is no longer some drunk student leading cheers pre game at the entrance 3 hours pregram (with out having to fight LSUPD or the Christian groups disapproving of great cheers i.e. "Rat shite" "We're the Crew" etc).

The Georgia game in 03 was amazing b/c the stadium got right behind the team when the frick'ed up. The chants of Geuax Tigers and LSU LSU LSU where deafing no matter who screwed up. We Knew we would not loose.
Also Don't forget baby manning getting yelled into a few sac's. A game he mentioned when he got drafted when asked about playing infront of a "hostel NY crowd" and he said "he could handle it as it would be nothing..."

In Short... my drunken point is there are so many underrated games. And for some one who has been going to games since a young person, that stretch in the early 2000's was the best, as we had amazing teams, and a hungry fan base to back it up. I would say each of those games (save freaking UAB and AU smoking cigars) where fantastic and part of an amazing few years I was privileged to attend.

1993 Ole Miss. COLD and were predicted to get run all over the triple option of Billy Brewer. People forget this game because we beat Bama a week later. Still, Jay Johnson ran all over a solid Reb defense and they missed a game-tying FG in the end. Again...COLD.

It's definitely South Carolina in 2012. A lot of people don't even remember that game happened. SC was #3. And TS was loud.

That was a great game. Funny thing is we could have beaten them by more without that near pick 6, but, they also were a drive away from besting us as well

I know most people had left the game but LSU was down 31-3 to Troy deep in the third quarter in 2008 and came back to win 40-31. Crazy freaking game

I still wish I could find highlights of the crazy comeback against Troy.


It was so cold for that game, all the highlights are frozen.

1995 vs Auburn. That game is what gave us our first glimpse of hope after the dark days of Curley Hallman.

2000 vs. UT I almost got decapitated trying to climb on the south endzone goal post. Was getting a boost up when the thing came down, with not that many people around it.

I was an 8th grader when that game took place. Unbelievable!

For a pick-me-up, I watched '07 Bama game. Wow. Two things I took from the rewatch.

1. Demetrius Byrd - Stud for that season at crucial moments but never took it to the next level.

2. D-Line was sick nasty before Chavis got here. Forgot we could get so much penetration consistently.

Arkansas 2001 is an underrated game. A pivotal game in the saban era. Arkansas had won 7 in a row, the crowd was awesome and a must win game..

They were ranked #5 at the time. Definitely underrated. I had forgot about that game entirely until now.
