Remember this moment well! Game relocated because of hurricane and what a magnificent throw by Jamarcus for the win! Was lucky enough to be present and fondly remember the moment! Great choice!

And the catch by Early wasn't bad either!

Lee to Randle vs Bama in '10.

Lee had to come off the bench on 3 and like 12 pretty deep in our own territory, late in the
4th qtr, and Bama had momentum.

JaMarcus also had a big TD to Early vs UTenn in '06.

Russell Shepard to Trey Quinn throw was perhaps the greatest throw in history of Football. Breaking all the sterotypes

One that didn't count (holding penalty):

'05 SECCG, Jamarcus to Brazzell for a TD

60 yard flick while rolling to avoid pressure

1hour 39 minute mark if the video doesn't load there

He was under pressure and still roped it perfectly on a crossing route

Umm I love me some JB9 but his 3rd & 17 completion to JJ at Texas looked like a few late career Peyton Manning Duck’s. LOL definitely not a Rope.

Across his body, got clobbered, and threw a dime in the clutch.

This is my vote.


No question it was a tough throw in a clutch situation. But Green had the defenders beat by 5 yards. Mauck didn't have to be perfect with the throw. He just had to get it there.

The 3rd and 17 throw by Burrow gets deserved praise because of Burrow's ability to maneuver a collapsing pocket to buy just enough time to complete a huge pass. But, for me, the best pure throw in that game wasn't 3rd and 17. It was this throw



The defender has Jefferson completely covered on the skinny post. There is nowhere to put the ball inside. Burrow throws Jefferson open. That is an ELITE throw very few college QBs can make.

That play also was the first time in 2019 I knew that LSU team was different. LSU started the drive that ended with that play in their own territory, up 13-7, with a little over a minute to go in the half. EVERY OTHER LSU TEAM in the past 20 years (or more) would have just run the ball and been happy to go into the half with the lead. That team didn't. 3 straight passes capped off by this ridiculous TD throw (and catch) told the nation this ain't the "old LSU".

Max Johnson to Jenkins last year for the game winner was a beautiful throw.

Nothing but youngsters in here - the 1972 Bert Jones to Brad Davis ‘Set your watch back 4 seconds’ game against Ole Miss was the greatest of all time…..

No video but here’s John Ferguson’s Audio Call

May not be “the best” but when Anthony Jennings hit Dural to beat Arkansas in ‘13, we thought we had ZM’s replacement

Hodson to Fuller (twice). Eddie was able to get feet in bounds the second time.

BTW, both that one and the one you mentioned Davey to Royal were right in front of me in the North End Zone.

Hodson also had several beautiful touch passes to Brian Kinchen. A touch pass over the middle downfield into the hands of a closely guarded TE is a thing of beauty.
