2017 Syracuse was horrible as well with them almost mounting an improbable 4th quarter comeback by running a bunch of trick plays. That game was a bad omen for Troy the following week.

That three week stretch of getting blasted by Mississippi State, looking like shite against a bad Syracuse team and then losing to Troy was some of the worst football I have ever seen

At least that 2017 team ended up being somewhat decent by the end of the year

2012 Bama where LSU dominated then the whole game and of course they break a lucky play at the end that the Badger would have been all over.

I hate Bama.

McNeese State cancellation due to lightning in Denham Springs.

Total joke. You have a better chance of falling out of the upper deck at Tiger Stadium than being struck by lightning.

Just another everybody gets a trophy, don’t hit people too hard in football, mentality.

I will vote for Tennessee 2010.

After the botched snap, I stormed out of the stadium in a huff. While walking outside I discovered that the game was not over. I ran back in and saw the touchdown at ground level right on the goal line by the fence in the northeast corner.

That was wild.

Some have listed McNeese 2015. My wife and I stayed in the stadium well after it emptied out. They did not call the game until like 10:30pm. We weren’t leaving until they called it because it was our son’s first game in Tiger Band. We weren’t going to miss him at half time which never happened. When he did Pre-Game my wife was in tears. Have to admit I had a lump in my throat.

Another I would offer up is Miami 1988. Weather was awful with high winds and it was raining sideways. The wind was so bad it affected the passes being thrown. QBs were having trouble connecting the receivers because the ball would get blow off line. It was almost comical.

Supposedly, Jimbo begged Miles to not sit on the lead at halftime but Les paid no mind to Jimbo. Miles had blown big leads at Okie State as well.

1998 Alabama comes to mind. The Tide has a furious comeback aided by two tipped balls that fell right into Bama receivers hands for TDs. Plus, Abram Booty dropped a sure TD that would have sealed the game.

The correct answers are likely 2010 Tennessee and 2004 Oregon State.

Monday night after Katrina.


I was at that game and it was MISERABLE.

The end of the 1st half ended in the South endzone and I looked at my brother and said, "We are done." The LSU players were dragging their arse back to the North endzone.

Also, the game was moved to Monday night because of Hurricane Rita.

Oregon State streaker:

Was that the time they took him out full frontal nudity past the student section and someone threw a towel or something in his direction? He couldn't catch it because he was handcuffed.

I was LMAO.

JaMarcus got some reps that game. He couldn't throw with touch for shite. Everything came out hot.

As bad as my vision is I figured if I could see it from the stands he had to be.

That Oregon St game was weirder than you described. They actually missed 3 extra points that night. The last one in OT to eke put a Tiger victory
What makes it weirder, it wasn't just some random scrub kicker.

That OSU guy was All Pac 10 that year, All American and won the Lou Groza award the next.

Some good ones mentioned, Oregon State probably my choice.

Did anyone mention the Bama game when we finally won at home? 2000?

Our fans and scoreboard operator convinced the ref to change his call late in game but don’t remember many other details of game.

Weirdest game I ever saw in person was the Auburn game where their kicker (a really good one) missed 5 FGs leading to an LSU win.

I mean if you want to get pissed about the cancellation go ahead, but it stormed hard on campus after the teams went in for the delay.

One that hasn’t been mentioned yet, 2015 South Carolina. Half empty stadium, we were the “away” team and Spurrier quit when it was over.

Most here are too young for this one. 1982 Florida State. The fog rolled into Tiger Stadium and you couldn't see the field if you were half-way up in the stands. Winning that game sent us to the Orange Bowl. Oranges were flying out of the stands onto the field. Following week we were upset in the last game of the regular season by Tulane.
