Looking back at last year, what game result do you think was the biggest fluke, based on lucky/unlikely breaks, calls, etc.?

My guess would be South Carolina-Georgia. Georgia really outplayed them, but South Carolina got FOUR non-offensive touchdowns (fake punt TD, fumble return TD, interception return TD, and fumble return to the 5 resulting in a TD technically scored by the offense). What easily could have been a 42-17 Georgia blowout was instead a 45-42 South Carolina win.

The first time LSU - Bama met up.

Bama looked the stronger team through four quarters, blew it on special teams.

I was at this game and it was such a bizarre game to watch in person.

Walking out of Sanford, all the UGA folks had the same WTF look on their faces.

Wow, I'm not even going to get into this. That's like me picking the 9-6 game. I mean Alabama went TWO for SIX on field goals. They had more yards and first downs.

But my serious pick is probably Auburn over us. Not to say they weren't good or anything but there was no excuse for us to lose that at home.

Auburn beating USCe last season shouldn't have happened. AU didn't have business beating many ppl last year The fact AU won 8 games is still mind boggling

Aaron Murray blew that game. He was careless and lost his team the game. I lost a lot of respect for him as a QB after that game.

La Tech vs. State - State won in overtime (that should be enough proof).

Definitely Au beating USCe in Columbia. Kept them from going to the SECCG but (if I'm not mistaken) it did get rid of Garcia as their starter, which was a good thing in the long run.

Bama fans are impressively thick-skulled.
