1997 Iron Bowl - Ed Scissum fumbles late in the 4th quarter when all we needed to do was get a first down and run the clock out.

2003 UT game - Most people remember this as UT converting a 4th and 19. I remember because Bama had 1st and 5 and couldn't get a first down to run out the clock. UT won in 5 OTs

2003 Arky game - I think we were up 38-17 with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. We had the game won about 3 different times. Biggest thing I remember from this game is Bama picking Matt Jones off in OT and the guy fell down and everybody was celebrating. One ref is telling them to get up and another ref comes all the way across the field and flags us for Unsportsmanlike. It was a bullshite call. We would've been in easy field goal position, instead we started on the 40.

1998 LSU - One positive one. We had no business winning this game. Kevin Faulk had about 1200 total yards. Two tipped passes and an onside kick later and Bama comes out of Death Valley with a win......again.

That one sucked beyond belief.
