That 2000 USM loss was miserable. They DOMINATED us that game.
However, we had played USM many times and they were generally tough and had beaten us before.
I would go with 2003 NIU. Yea, the back, Michael Turner I think, was good but their team was castoffs and rejects from ILLINOIS, Eastern Illinois, Miami of Ohio and Ohio U for crying out loud. Remember too they controlled that game. We needed a stop at the end and couldn't get it and I remember watching our players laughing as they came off the field.
Miss State in 2006 was bad. We left with 5 minutes to play in the 2nd qtr. Michael Henig was hitting passes like he was in a 7 on 7 drill. It seems we were down 17 or 20 points at halftime.
Fans weren't even mad anymore. Just ready to move on. Saban's name started in force after this game.
ULM was bad but it was his first season and Jimmy Johns played because Darby was dogging it in practice. We lost but that game was to save the herd by killing the calf. Saban made his point in the press conference after when he said they're gonna get it even if we lose every week. It's gonna be done one way and that's my way. Once they bought in and stopped trying to sabotage his style, well...

Tennessee, 2010... wait...
But seriously, I've never been more enraged after a victory.
