Man, that game is what CFB is all about. Smash mouth offense, great defensive plays, big time moments at pivotal points in the game. Best game in the last 15 years in the SEC IMO.


To all the Georgia fans, I would not feel the slightest bit butthurt if y'all beat the shite out of us this year. It was a real heartbreaker.

Best game I've watched other than USC-Texas. Also the most miserable sports moment of my life.

I rooted for Bama but that was a great game. I felt awful for Murray on the hit as I respected the hell out of him as a player.

Probably the most painful loss I can remember. I thought we were really going to win after Ogletree returned the blocked FG for a TD.

After that game a friend and myself went to the bar. I posted up beside this fella who looked to be 80 years old. He said to me that he has been goin to bama games all of his life and that was the best one he had ever saw. I've been to a lot of games myself but that one may never be topped.

I knew I had turned a corner as a fan and a man when I was able to go to sleep exhausted and defeated but still in awe of that game while my wife just stayed up playing the whole damn thing over in her head. She'd never been to a football game until she met me. I like to think that I brought her up in her fandom correctly and the 2012 SECCG proves it. Poor girl is still scarred by it

As bad as 21-0 was I would take a loss like that over having my heart ripped out like UGA did

That game was truly a classic. And believe me, we went through the same heartbreak a year later with Kick Six.

For excitement and tension, that was probably the best SECCG of all time. Better than the first one, IMO.

I wanted both teams to be sucked into a black hole.

I would too if both teams had their way with us they way we did with Auburn that year.

I was in shock when we tipped that final pass in UGA's end zone. I was SURE they'd get another chance at it but then I heard people counting down, and I knew that was game.

Still one of the best games I've ever attended.

That game was the last straw for Todd Grantham as our DC
...too bad it took a whole year to can his arse.

The worst part of that game was when Alec Ogletree returned the blocked kick for a TD. That's when we actually let ourselves believe that it could happen.

Actually, I take that back. When Murray started hitting Lynch deep down the middle to put us in scoring position was the worst. I just wanted it to be over but they made me believe. And then they didn't.

After that interception was ruled an incomplete pass. I was going wild, Murray and the offense was driving the ball with force. Felt like I was finally going to see our title drought end. Then in one play I didn't feel like doing anything for a long time

About how I felt when Jarvis Jones stripped UF of the ball at the goal line to seal the win for UGA over #2 UF that year. Everyone was going totally apeshit around me in the stadium and I just couldn't process the thought in my head.

Was an awesome game. Two heavyweights slugging it out to see who got the privilege of crushing leprechaun nuts.

You mean like the 12 and 14 games where we vomited up the game?

Probably the best game I've ever been to in terms of good football (2013 LSU was just fun as shite). And as has been said before, after the returned blocked kick, I really let myself believe. I don't think I spoke more than a few words for at least 24 hours after that. shite hurt, man.
