1997 when LSU beat then #1 Florida. A lot of emotion bottled up by terrible football teams was released that night. Plus, micro dots are fun at football games.
I remember that game. it was a huge win for LSU...what happened the next week?

Hill with a 1 yard run with :15 left. It was my last game as a student and it was an amazing game. It was hard to leave Death Valley.
Ole Miss played so hard that game. Comletey overmatched talent wise, they left everything they had on the field that night, and came up short. Hurt me bad, yet I was proud at the same time.

LSU got their asses to handed to them by the Rebs. Classic case of a team not knowing how to handle success while another team played a great game and deserved to win. I was quite pissed in the stands though.

I witnessed "The Prayer in Jordan-Hare" and "The Kick 6".

Both from '98.
Florida missed field goal in OT and the goal posts came down
Stoerner stumble and fumble, Vols score to win and kept the national championship season alive.
I was fortunate enough to be in the stadium for both.

Honestly can’t remember a lot of games during my time at school. A lot of drinking before and during, but Jonathon Banks’ pick six against Tebow right before half. Place went nuts.

Seen a lot of good games over the years but one that doesn’t get a lot of talk was Bama’s comeback win over Eric Zier and UGA. Stadium was rocking and afterwards was a blast

Easily Marcus Lattimore’s career ending injury against Tennessee. The most memorable and the saddest.
Perhaps the most beloved Gamecock in recent memory; a young man of stellar character finally coming back strong after his first bad injury. Probably the HBC’s favorite player here.
I saw the play and saw his leg swing awkwardly through the air. Turned to my wife and said: “Marcus is down. It looks bad.” It took a few more seconds for the play to finish and the people on the field to react. Marcus knew it. Jeff Guy, the team doctor (a damn fine Orthopaedic surgeon and a helluva nice guy) ran out with the trainers.
You could hear a pin drop. Both teams - Gamecocks and Vols - went on the field and took a knee together. People held hands or put their hands over their mouths in shock. Many prayed. Although obviously really bad, it wasn’t the worst injury I’ve seen - that was a UVA player who broke his neck — it was the most emotional because of who it was and how hard he had worked to come back.
Marcus was taken off on the cart with a towel on his head and Dr. Guy comforting him. The crowd applauded and there were a few desultory cries of support but no cheers. Everyone there knew what it meant- that there was no hope this fine young man blessed with incredible talent and purpose would suit up for us again. That we would never again see the special power and grace with which he ran the football. That his dream of the NFL was gone.
I’ve seen wonderful moments too - the goal posts coming down in rapturous joy when we ended the 21 game losing streak (something those poor suffering Alabama fans will never experience). But that awful day Marcus went down — yeah, that’s the one I’ll always remember.

Dexter McCluster fumbling going into the end zone to end the game against Vanderbilt. It was my first conference games as a student I think.

2007 beating #1 LSU in Commonwealth was pretty special. Tigers still went on to win the Natty. Atmosphere was amazing that day.
