Yep. I remember thinking teams have done this (tight end over the middle) to us for decades and now we hit the tight end for a dramatic td. One could sense the atmosphere had changed for the better.

The best feeling that I ever had was the 2001 SEC Championship Game right after when more than 50,000 Rocky Toppers had left the stadium as the time counted down.

My girlfriend, now wife, and I were in the East Upper deck. It was so load, that my ears rang for 2 days after. I remember saying how it was so cool to be at an overtime game with the new rules in place. Little did I know that I would see another one in a few weeks when MSU came to town. What a great time to be a Tiger.

I lost my ticket somewhere between the parking lot and the stadium. All the money I had was a $10 bill (no baller). I found a guy willing to part with a ticket for that much and got in 5 minutes before kickoff.

I was there and it was incredible. Not many can top that. From the games I was in TS, I will say:

00 Miss St
00 Bama
03 UGA
07 UF

97 UF is probably the best overall ever, with 95 bring back the magic vs Auburn being close

I ran on the field after. Was very excited and remember seeing Lsu fans running out the stadium with Vol helmets. I was so jealous. Just got out the military and was my first game in a few years

was and went on the field. Was the second time in my life after the 97 Florida game.

I think the Tennessee game was the turning point in my life where I think that we can achieve greatness and that if it is achieved, we need to act like we've been there before because we have.

Hence no rushing of the field when we beat Ole Miss at home.

Wasn't there, but when Rohan took off on that first play and scrambled for about 10+ yards I said, damn, we gotta shot.

Yes I was, it was the first time i truly thought, wow this is what it feels like to be a fan of a winning football team. GEAUX TIGERS! I had season tickets for 5 years at that time. The Florida win was great, but this game proved we were ready to take the nest step.

I was there. Don't remember too many leaving at halftime. I think I still have some grass from the field somewhere in a ziplock bag.

Still '79 USC is the undisputed champ, and still nothing I've witnessed, and I've witnessed pretty much all the storied ones since...still nothing compares.

I was there. Pretty special. 97 Florida game has to be mentioned as well.
