Correct. The LSU upset of Florida was in 2001 in BR when the Gators were No. 1.


No, they kicked our arse in 2001.

1997 was the year we beat the Gators in BR when they were #1.

Florida was ranked #2 when they came to Baton Rouge and beat us 44-15.

Perhaps y'all are referring to this game in 1997?

Good read, yes he missed a few facts and "dominant team"..I don't think so. I admire the grinders. They pull hard for their team and realize they don't have the resources to compete near the top for extended periods. Other than OM they don't troll much(this week being an exception ).

MSU was the best team in the West for four years


When was this magical 4 year period because I'm looking at the standings since 1992 and I see a whole lot of Alabama, Auburn, and LSU. I also see the occasional appearance of Arkansas.

The only time I see Mississippi State is 1998, a year in which they went to Atlanta but had neither the highest national ranking nor best overall record in the west.

So we got the title to the MSU football team in 2000? Feels good to officially own the mule you were renting....makes the beatings a little less fulfilling, but fun when you can't find anything that will fight back

You seriously expect people here to read that novel? I tried to read it, got about halfway through, and said frick the rest of it


I read it and thought it was great.

The story of the division champ State team getting crushed by one of LSU's worst 90's teams (and there were certainly some real bad ones) was new to me and made me

Great read and thanks for that perspective. I think the game will be fantastic and will come down to how LSU's young talent measures up to MSU's experience and maturity. It should be a great atmosphere. Best of luck to State.
