This right here.

2012 LSU vs Alabama.

Awesome game in Tiger Stadium, then Dumbo Miles with a big ASSIST from John Chavis blew it.

Bama Offense held in check all game, then they decide to all of a sudden go into the infamous "3rd and Chavis" prevent defense in OT.

It worked marvelously. It prevented us from winning. Bama marches right down the field and then the "Yeldon Screen" ended it.

9-6. 2011. Every single play felt like it could win/lose the game.
People forget how absolutely INTENSE that game was

Every play seemed like everything was on the line.

Both coaches had fully puckered assholes for the entire game

People forget how great Jeremy Hill was and how brilliantly Zach Mettenberger played

because at the end of the day, all that matters is the score

Johnny Football game in Tuscaloosa.


Funnily enough mine would be 2013 when Alabama came to College Starion.

It was a shootout with 91 total points (49-42) and just shy of 1200 total yards.

Nick looked like he saw his own ghost at the end of that game, despite winning. Ags had one of the worst defenses I’d ever seen them put on a field that year.

He was the best RB that I have ever seen in person.


Whenever the bo/herschel topic comes up you get a handful of AU fans or young people that will naively try to say bo was better. Yet anyone that's old enough ot have seen both of them actually live in person, almost to a man every one of them will say Herschel was the best they've ever seen with their own eyes.

2002 UGA.

David Greene threw a TD on 4th and 15 to put the Bulldogs up 4 with like a minute to go. That clinched the SEC East for them. Happened right in front of me.


are you one of the military guys they show on the replay in that endzone that looked like the Scream painting by edvard munch?

Quincy Carter and Champ Bailey were unbelievable in that game. It may be the best game I've ever seen in person.


Quincy started the game 15/15 which was a record at the time, I can't recall if it still is or not. Man, UGA fans were on cloud 9 thinking about our future with Quincy after that game yet he got worse every season.

Nah, but I wasn't far behind them. I was maybe 5 or 6 rows up in the student section right behind where he caught the ball. I have picked myself out in pictures and highlights that are from the UGA offense POV.

Absolute heartbreaker.

We outplayed them that whole game.


that's a bit of a stretch. AU outscored us in 2 quarters and we outscored AU in 2 quarters. Yall outrushed us by a good bit, we outpassed you by a good bit (btw, our top 2 WRs were out that game due to injury). We outgained AU in total yards.

UGA receiver pushed our DB down by the shoulders as he went up to get that pass.

Should have been offensive PI.

1994 Cotton Bowl. Notre Dame and A&M were both 10-1. Depending on what shook out, Ags could have been named a national champion. It was tied, we were driving, but fumbled and let them kick a field goal to win it.

Brutal, soul crushing loss.

I've been to so many UK football games and seen us lose in just about every possible way.


Same. Most recently it was Texas. Tennessee in OT and Arkansas in 7 OT comes to mind. Chris Doring and Florida. On and on and on….

I was there. We couldn’t stop them. But they couldn’t stop us. The difference was turnovers.
