2007 SEC championship game

LSU beat Tennessee 21-14 but it was the aftermath that made it so memorable. Went to Hooters after the game and was able to see the finish of all of the other games which allowed LSU to play in the BCS championship game.

While the 2012 SEC Championship between Alabama and Georgia might be the best of all of them, my favorite will always be the 2009 game between #1 Florida and #2 Alabama. Two undefeated juggernauts playing for a spot in the BCS National Championship Game. High drama and actual stakes.
if you can be bake and eliminate the losing from the equation 2008 sec championship was better. #1 Bama (but everyone kinda thought Florida was) and bama played a hell of a 3 quarter game carrying 20-17 into the fourth before Tebow took over. It hanging with that Florida club let me know it was only a matter of time

Well obviously your memory isn’t that great since you said Tennessee was trailing in the third quarter.

While we ended on the losing side, Auburn vs Tennessee in 1997 was an incredible game. Dameyune Craig vs Peyton Manning.

On the good side, we had an all-time great rushing performance vs Mizzou in 2013.

I hate to see the game go but it hasn't been the same since the SEC expanded and did away with Divisions. The traditional East vs West Champions was what made the game fun.

In the late 00's and early teen's it was a defacto Playoff/Play-in game for the BCS and later 4 team playoff. That really was peak SEC football.

The 2008 game was definitely the better of the two, but it was the historic nature of the 2009 meeting that sells it for me. Obviously winning the game helps, but you had a battle between two undefeated teams (the first and only time that has ever happened in the history of the SEC Championship Game). Winner take all, loser goes to the Sugar Bowl.

People forget that the 2009 game was highly competitive in the first half. It was 19-13 at the break and there was no indication that either team was poised to pull ahead and win the game decisively. It signified the end of one potential dynasty and the rise of the most dominant dynasty college football has ever seen.

Didnt get a first down until the third quarter but still dominated because of special teams and defense.

Jordan Jefferson was 5/13 for 30 yards. Rueben Randle was the only WR to catch a pass. LSU still managed to score 42 points!

Morris Claiborne had an interception return for 45 yards and a TD.

Tyrann Mathieu had a 62 yard punt return TD

Alfred Blue/Kenny Hilliard:
Combined for 166 yards on only 16 carries.

Favorite was the only one I ever went to, the 2019 game during LSU's perfect season.

Found out a couple of weeks before the game that I had to take a weeklong class in Marietta (for work) the week before the game.

Was able to get two tickets, and my younger daughter (a freshman at LSU at the time) flew up Friday night. Extended my hotel by two days; we went to the game together and had a blast. Moved down after halftime and sat with the family that has season tickets next to us; after the win we all went out to dinner together and celebrated.
