2004 Music City Bowl. Went to the game.
Lost to Minnesota. Albeit they had 2 great running backs. We lost 20-16 and it was just the perfect miserable way to end that season.

BS. 95% of the posters on this site gave Boise shite for years. Including many UGA posters and fans. Don't act like you guys gave them credit. They were looked at like a little piss ant team that could not play with the big boys.

i was one of them for a long time.

More Georgia fans back peddled once Boise thumped them

BCS Era is from 1998 - 2013.

1996-1997 was the "Bowl Alliance"

Dude, your delusion on this topic is borderline hilarious. Boise had already beaten Oklahoma, Virginia Tech, Oregon, Oklahoma State and countless other good teams before playing us at the start of 2011 and we were coming in with a miserable 7 loss team from the previous season. I think they had already proved they could hang with the big boys and anyone who thought otherwise is kidding themselves.

For LSU, its obviously UAB, but for me personally the '02 loss to VA Tech, since I have hated them since I heard of them in '95, and was at the game.

These type threads piss me off,making me think about losing to the teams we lost to.
La Tech
La Monroe
To me those arn't that bad cause those La.rednecks can be a handfull.
Utah
Oklahoma
Those were bowl games,if you are not up to it physically and mentally,these rated types will whip your arse.

Now losing to hawaii is the fricking pits,I would have left that team stranded there,never to return to the state of Alabama.

UCF, Louisiana Tech, ULM, and Northern Illinois.

2000-2007 was rough. The Louisiana Tech loss was in 1999. Alabama defeated Arkansas and Florida in consecutive weeks after that and won the SEC. That made it bearable.

Boise St certainly wasn't a "bad" loss. They were legit with Petersen and Kellen More, and they proved it time and time again. I can understand it being "disappointing" from a SEC talking points standpoint.

For LSU, I'd say the most disappointing is the Clemson game. It obviously wasn't a bad loss with them being 11-2 on the season, but all we had to do was stop them on 4th and 16 to win the game. That was tough to watch.

Idk if I should be glad or sad to see my undergrad school getting some mentions from UGA and Bama fans.

1999 Orange Bowl v. Michigan/Tom Brady. Games that awesome should never be won or lost based on a missed extra point in OT. I hate the extra point. Such a ridiculous play that can only hurt you. Football should be a one point play from the 2 or a 2 point play from the 5. Looks like the NFL will eventually do something like this.

That Colorado loss on the road was pretty pathetic for UGA.

The Auburn one that pissed me off the most was the Outback Bowl in Tampa against Penn State in the rain back when baby Bowden coached at Auburn. We got HAMMERED by Penn State. Like we were totally unprepared.

Last years BCSNCG had me the most disappointed. Auburn should have won that game for any number of our own reasons.
