Only attended one year: 2010. 4-8 sucked but watching Masoli was a real treat. Guy doesn't get near the credit he deserves for keeping that team floating (barely)
Without Masoli, Nutt would have been fired one year sooner.

2006-11.
It was a roller coaster. A pretty good one. No loops. More like a good wooden coaster.

2010-present:
First SEC East division championship, Haven't experienced a loss to Clemson, UGa, or Tennessee. Beat the #1 team for first time in school history. First (and 2nd) 11 win seasons, including 2 bowl wins. Got/get to watch some of the best players in school history suit up each week (Alshon, Latt, Clowney, etc.).
Bonus: Baseball dynasty

During that 8 year period... it was decent but nothing exceptional. Archer/Hallman/Dinardo

I feel like there's one thing Aggie and Bama fans will always agree on...

Ole Miss 2005-2009. Endured the Coach O years but was able to experience back to back Cotton Bowls in my last two.
Favorite memory: Winning down in Tiger Stadium in '08 and taking a bus straight to Bourbon right after with about 5K other Rebels. Ridiculous day.
Worst memory: we were losing to Northwestern State at halftime my junior year. Me and my friends looked at eachother, decided to leave this godforsaken excuse of an SEC football game, and piled 8 deep into our friends Tahoe to head to Tuscaloosa for Bama-LSU. Also, a ridiculous day.

He was bad, but far from the worst. Whitworth and DuBose are the two worst coaches we've ever had

Talk about a rollercoaster
Two awful LSU teams.

(1980) 7-4 and the team voted to NOT go to a bowl game
(1981) 3-7-1 and the worst LSU team in 25 years
(1982) 8-3-1 They started out the season 7-0-1 after beating Bama and were ranked in the Top 5. before losing to MSU in Starkville. MSU QB John Bond was 4-0 vs. LSU in his career. We beat FSU the following week to get an Orange Bowl invitation onlt to lose to Tulane in the season finale and Nebraska in the Orange Bowl.

Came in with high expectations for what turned out to be DuBose's last season and left with high expectations for the wet-behind-the-ears Shula.
Good times.

1975 10-2. Good on paper, but huge disappointment. 10-0 and if I remember right ranked #2, then got stomped by Arkansas, then by USC in the Liberty Bowl.
1976 10-2. Beat Florida in the Sun Bowl. I had forgotten that.
1977 8-4. Stomped once again by USC, this time at the Bluebonnet Bowl.
1978 8-4. Lost to texas, which lost my guy Emory Bellard his job.
1979 6-5. Just terrible, but ended on a good note by beating heavily-favored texas.

Looking back on it, Shula did a much better job than it looks like. We really could've become the next Pittsburgh. He did a good job at not letting us get any worse. Don't get me wrong, he needed to go, and he needed to go when he got fired.

We won a Heisman and a Natty my freshman year in '10. Since then we've kind of been a dumpster fire...
