we weren't even in the conversation of being a bubble team. They weren't selected over us.

I’d say the 2017 comeback win vs Auburn. We Had just lost to Troy and the wheels were about to come off. IMO, That win saved the season and O’s job and allowed the 2019 season to happen.

Agree. And maybe even more specifically Chark's punt return.

Couldn't close it out.
Still, the only sporting event I've ever walked out of mad because of the way the refs jobbed us.
Two examples:
- Bobby Knight not getting thrown out for breaking the phone after he had already been T-ed up for arguing a 3-second call.
- An Indiana player bear hugging Fess Irvin from behind and getting a jump ball call instead of a foul in the last minute of the game.
The refs were totally intimidated by Knight and the 90% pro-Indiana crowd.

1) 2000 Davey to Royal in OT to help beat No. 11 Tennessee
Yeah - a lot of us remember Davey's third game against Tennessee vividly (SEC-CG in 2001), primarily because of the toughness he displayed.
What I have to remind youngsters about is - going into that 2000 game, LSU was 3-18-3 against Tennessee, overall. They were a low volume opponent from the founding days of the SEC. Pre-SEC, we had tied them (0-0) in Knoxville in 1925 and lost the rematch (7-14) in Baton Rouge the following year.
The inaugural year of SEC football, we won a game in Baton Rouge, 7-0. We would play sporadically over the coming decades that would see Tennessee post an impressive lossless streak against us - 13-0-1 until we broke that with one of Mac's weakest teams in 1974.
We lost a bunch of games again (with a single tie and a single win) until Davey went 2-1 against them over the 2000 - 2001 seasons. Since the "Rohan the Warrior" game in Atlanta in 2001, we only lost the BS Katrina game in 2005. Beginning with the Rohan to Royal in OT game, we are 7-2 over that stretch.

The clock would not have run out. He caught it with time left. There would have been time left on an incompletion.

Correct.

LSU beating mighty Witchita State to win our first national title in 1991.
It would propel us to 4 more in the next 9 years.

1989 game at Texas A&M when Larry Horton ran the opening kickoff back for a touchdown against LSU. Marked a downward spiral for LSU that lasted about 8 years or so. I was there and it was hot as hell in that stadium.

Making Mark Emmert the chancellor.

Rudy Macklin breaks hs finger.

Probably not really underrated, but Joe Burrow breaking his finger at OSU.

When the ahole UCF player blindsided Burrow, and then he flipped a switch to destroy everyone in his path.
