Sorry if my memory is foggy, but what about Arizona 2006? I know that was a total arse kicking (esp. LSU's D), but how was the offense?

The offense was good in that game, but again so was our offense for the season. We got shut down by Auburn's 17 defensive players (mainly the ones in black and white stripes), and killed ourselves with 5 turnovers, a blocked punt and a fumble into the end zone for a safety against the national champions on the road, yet still stayed somewhat competitive at 23-10. We put up 28 and 31 (albeit with a TD KO return) in our other two road games against top ten opponents (both wins).

Jamarcus Russell made himself the #1 overall NFL draft pick with his performance that season, and we had two (or three?) receivers also taken in the first round that year.
