Eh, it's been hit or miss for the better part of a decade because it used to get one OOC cupcake and one SEC game, and it rotated between LSU and Mississippi State until recently. The "best teams" were usually just LSU when they're good.

We had LSU in 2010 (they were #6, finished 11-2) with a Sugar Bowl berth on the line, and 2006 (they were #9, finished 11-2) in terms of great opponents in the last decade.

I'm only 29, but some of our older fans remember some great Texas teams of the 1960s (specifically the '63 NC team) coming into town, as well as the '87 Miami Hurricanes team that won the NC.

One of my earliest memories of a good victory at WMS was when we played Southern Cal in 1974 and beat them 22-7. They were ranked #5 and we were #20 and no one really gave us a chance to win that season opener. USC had the All-American RB Anthony Davis (dude was on 2 NC football teams and 3 NC baseball teams) and they went on to win the Rose Bowl and finished first in the UPI poll that season.
