Was 2010 the most exciting LSU season of all time?

For some reason, the 2010 LSU v. Florida highlights popped up on my YouTube feed, and that game got me thinking was 2010 the wackiest year in LSU history?

And by that I mean have we ever had a season with as many crazy, wacky things happening ON THE FIELD?

Here is a log of that season:

Sept. 4 - Chik Fil A Kickoff v. UNC - Patrick Peterson had maybe the greatest game in the history of LSU in terms of kick/punt returns. He had 257 yards on 7 kick and punt returns. However, all of those returns caused him to miss many plays in the second half because of cramps (same thing happened in the fourth quarter against Bama in 2009 allowing Julio Jones to ice the game with a long TD), allowing UNC to come storming back from 20 points down. It came down to a fourth down stop on the last play of the game at the 6 yard line.

Sept. 25 - Home v. West Virginia - Nothing too wacky about this one, but it did include the famous Patrick Peterson Heisman pose. And it does remind me that early in the season, Patrick Peterson was considered a Heisman frontrunner because of this game and the UNC game.

Oct. 2 - Home v. Tenn. - Craziest ending in the history of Tiger Stadium. Period.

Oct. 9 - at Florida - Craziest ending in the history of the Florida series.

Oct. 23 - at Auburn - Auburn dominated us for much of the game, but the bend but don't break Chavis defense was in full force, with a tie game midway through the fourth quarter when Ontario McCaleb went for a 70-yard TD against a completely gassed defense. Cam Newton won the Heisman in this game and in the Iron Bowl, but I think it was this game that initially made him the frontrunner.

Nov. 6 - Home v. Alabama - Our last win at home v. Alabama (hard to type that). While the ending wasn't too wacky, Alabama did have the ball in their hands on the last play. And this game had one of Les' greatest play calls, that double pitch to DeAngelo Peterson that went down to the 3 yard line on fourth down. One of my favorite moments of the Miles era. Also had a super-exciting 70+ yard Jefferson to Randle TD that completely changed the complexion of the game in the third quarter.

Nov. 20 - Home v. Ole Miss - A wild back and forth game against an extremely undermanned Ole Miss squad playing in their bowl game for the year. Stevan Ridley scored with less than a minute left to give us the lead and the win.

Jan. 7, 2011 - Cotton Bowl v A&M - The beginning of our recent dominance over the Aggies. Also, the national coming out party for Tyrann Mathieu who was ridiculous in this game. Terrance Toliver had 3 TDs in his last game and in his home state. A&M jumped out to a 10 point lead and were all geeked up about it. We then proceeded to outscore them 41-14 for the rest of the game. Beautiful. Finally, this game gave us momentum for the greatest regular season we had ever seen from an LSU team, until last year.
