Only ones that come to mind, since I don't go to a lot of games are:

1)BCS NC game vs Bama this year-nuff said

2)Auburn vs LSU 1997. I remember that game cause Cecil the Diesel was unstopable, but we couldn't convert on 3rd down and had to punt to Auburn. I remember the QB Dameyune Craig drove the team all the way down to the LSU goalline and then scored with little time left. After that game I decided not to go to the Florida game. Big mistake there.

Didn't realize he was a GA with LSU in 2004 and went with Saban to Miami.

(3) Virginia Tech 2002. The night before the game, the rarely used Virginia Grenadiers appeared in flimsy riot gear (maybe just Walmart track suits with ironed on patches) and treated the LSU faithful like G8 hooligans. Apparently because we drank their shockingly limited supply of beer. The day of the game, I sat in an endzone upper deck with the approximate slope of Mt. Everest's north face. Two very corpulent VT fans were perched just above me like menacing boulders. Early in the contest, we returned a punt for a TD, which was called back due to some mysterious penalty. The rest of the afternoon was a numbing marathon of offensive (both senses) ineptitude, high altitude sun stroke, and self-pity, interrupted only by the unspeakably disturbing sight of sixty thousand hillbillies doing the hokey pokey in unison;


well written and funny.

Bama 02 was damn miserable. And freezing

Tenn 05 next

I agree. Both of these were pretty terrible.

04 Georgia was bad too. My roommate's brother got bitten by a snake and some UGA fans burned our flag. The game sucked too of course.

Also 04 Florida just for the student bus trip. Before we went to the buses, my roommate and I drank tons of beer and ate 2 boxes of Zatarain's red beans & rice. Pretty much the whole ride to Gainesville was a prolonged misery of gas and sweat as we sobered up. At least we won.

For me, it was the ride home after an LSU win over a decent Rice team, that had made it close for a half.

I was passenger in the Cadillac of an oil rich coonass rice farmer.

We did not slow down below 100 all the way back to Lake Charles.

1985 I think. Beat Uk 10-0 one of the worst football games I have EVER watched. 21 totals punts plus it was raining.

Haven't seen this one yet, but I'll throw in the Jan 1, 2005 Capital One Bowl.

There's nothing worse than being so high emotionally after what should have been the game winning score, and then all the air being taken out of your sails because of one defensive miscommunication that resulted in the game winning score.

Then, there was another element. There were about 57 cases of holding, Offensive pass interference, and the like. FLAGS WERE THROWN...and then Iowa rushes the field, and the refs pick up the flags like they accidentally fell out of their pockets.

and Finally, Iowa fans are assholes.


Honorable mention goes to 1998 vs. Kentucky...watching Tim Couch arse rape us up and down the field.

2008 UGA. Giving up 50 points to that team. We should have taken them to the shed.

1998 Kentucky. Couch

1999 State Gibson didn't score.

UAB in 2000 was a rough one. I was only a kid at the time and thought we were on another track to no where afterthat loss. I had season tickets and just kept thinking, we will never be good in my lifetime. Little did I know one week later an overtime win against Tennessee would turn the program around.

Vanderbilt, 1990.

We got arse raped by that option and by the refs on the hail mary.

They only won one damn game that year.


Seriously though, Arkansas 2007 was the worst. My buddy and I drove all the way back to Shrveport and hardly said a word.

How bad was Ferentz's clock management in that game. Left timeouts on the table, but lucked out. Like 2007 Auburn. He escaped criticism because of the outcome. Ronnie Prude

I blame Saban for that one.

He sends arguably our worst DB (Keron Gordon) out for the final play, and then jumps Ronnie for not communicating with him???

YOU'RE THE COACH. Why don't you just send the call in with the new player.

Oh and Yes...Ferentz would have been lynched if it wasn't for Drew Tate.

Yeah. The side judge and Umpire both threw flags, and quickly picked them up.

They scored that fricking TD right in the endzone where I was sitting. We rained mardi gras beads on those players from Iowa. They started picking up the beads and ripping them apart like Hulk Hogan.
