LSU fans. More satisfying upset, 93' Alabama or 97' Florida?

Both Alabama and Florida were coming off national titles those years, undefeated, and were heavy favorites.

Easily 97 UF because thats the only time Spurrier lost to LSU while at UF

97 UF.
Coach Stallings was a class act and UA was a fine team. Great 'when pigs fly win'. But I really hated Spurrier/UF....really, really, really hated.

97 Florida went to where the belong - the Citrus bowl

Hmmm tough call
I'll go 93 cause that team had no chance to win that game
97 LSU had turned it around in 95-96

Watching the '97 Florida game right now on CST.

2013 Bama, aTm, UF, UGA, Ole Miss, MSU, Auburn, and TCU will all be pretty satisfying upsets as well.

'97 Florida easy
ETA: Spurrier raped us every year. Brutal rapes.
Knocking that fricks #1 team off was so awesome.
I got drunk, pilled up, and laid that night. Great night

I'm biased by my personal experience but 97 Florida is the answer.
Florida beat LSU 13 of 14 times in the 14 year stretch between 1988 and 2001. All of the LSU losses between 1993 and 2001 were by more than a touchdown (five by three or more touchdowns). The combination of LSU being down and Spurrier being at his peak made most of those games massacres. The one upset, the one saving grace for LSU against that team was beating them in 97.
Obviously as a LSU fan you love beating Alabama and beating them in 1993 coming off their NC was special (considering how terrible LSU generally was) but it isn't nearly the monumental upset that the LSU win was in the LSU vs Florida series.
For reference (1988-2001)
LSU vs Alabama
5 wins, 9 losses. Four of the five wins @ Alabama. Average score in the 14 games LSU 16.3 Alabama 21.6
LSU vs Florida
1 win, 13 losses. Average score in the 14 games LSU 11.7 Florida 32.6

That's not legit. The Bama game was just freakish, but it meant NOTHING. The UF game was actually significant for the program. Dinardo, in retrospect, achieved some key milestones. Hallman just sold his soul to the devil for that one game. Seriously, how did that illiterate shitstain ever beat Stallings in Bama?

97 Florida and its not that close. We Were gettin an annual arse rapin from Visor boy every year prior to that game. One of the best times I ever had at a lsu game. Still have tr field grass in my office from that game

28-21 wasn't that the score of the 97 UF game? I have always hated UF, my Hate for Bama does not compare!

Since I didn't follow college football closely till the 94 Arky game, and more so the 95 season, I will go with 97 UF. I remember tossing my crutches to side and hopping around on one foot in my basement. Did enjoy watching the replay of the Bama win a month ago or so.
