After the 2012 SEC CG, I avoided any show that showed college football highlights until the next September. I watched only UGA's bowl game and exactly one drive of the national championship game before I turned it off and went to bed.

2012 SECCG.
Only thing that hurts more was 2017 Super Bowl.

Auburn being tired or something against A&M,
This is what you may not understand coming from the Big XII. It happens all the time. SEC teams (not named Bama) only have a certain amount of depth, and when you are I a slugfest like that Ole Miss game in 2014, it takes a toll the next week because you have to turn right back around and play amother tough SEC team. That is why the SEC is so tough because the teams wear each other down. That's what happened against A&M in 2014.
On a side note, Bama wins the SEC most years these days not necessarily because they have better coaching or game planning or even a better starting 22, but rather they win a war of attrition over the course of an SEC season. If you're going to get Bama, it's going to have to be in the early part of the year (see Ole Miss 2x) or in a bowl because the chance of you beating them late in the regular season when your team is banged and they can just plug in another 5* All-American is slim.

Miami 2013 beginning of the end of the Muschamp era. First loss with 7 more to go.

We are seeing this at play in another sport with baseball this year. There are so many dangerous teams in the SEC that no one has the truly dominant looking record.
Speaking of Bama... let me say that as a Razorback fan you learn to develop a thick hide when it comes to losses, but the 2014 game against the Tide (14-13) still stings to this day.
Wearing our classic throwback jerseys we throttled Bama on offense only to fumble going into the end zone. Untouched. No one around him. It just jumped out of his hands.
It was like Bear Bryant came back from the dead and kicked us in the balls one more time.

2012 SEC championship game.
No other game has ever made my drunk arse go outside, walk around the neighborhood, and yell obscenities at everyone I saw.
Honestly was surprised I didn't get the cops called on me.
And the prayer and Jordan hare, the Tennessee game last year, fjdksjfjwksjrkskskfjdhw.
Sometimes it's really hard to be a Georgia fan.

It was a reply to TailbackU's comment about Auburn being tired or something against A&M, but you're saying it was because you choked.
It's pretty obvious that we choked against A&M. We lost because of a damn butt-fumble. Maybe Auburn was tired against A&M that year but I'd think the other SECw teams were tired as well.

If USC beats UTK, they go to Atlanta. Winner of Carolina/Auburn plays FSU for natty.
Hence, that loss cost him a shot at a national title.

Not CFB related, but the worst feeling I've had after a game was Game 6 of the 2011 World Series. The Rangers were 1 strike/out away 2 different times.

This thread was made for Georgia fans. Way too many to count over recent memory, but I'll echo the sentiment that the 2012 SECCG was the worst. Just walked out of the stadium in dead silence along with everyone else.
Other nominees include:
2016 Tech
2016 Tennessee
2014 Tech
2014 South Carolina
2013 Auburn
2009 LSU

1/9/12 Should've played Oklahoma State!

2006 Arkansas and UGA. Just another example of Tubs playing down to the competition. We had already beat UF and would've beat the brakes off of Ohio State.
Arkansas ended up being really good that year and I highly doubt they would have beaten Meyer in a neutral field rematch game.

Beat Meyer in the swamp with a lot less talented team the next year. That 2006 Auburn team was really fricking good.

13 vs FSU - If Mason doesn't break all of those tackles on his late TD, we kick the game winner as time expires.
We were down by 3.

Are you kidding me, making the boast about Aubie being the best in 1988? You lost to LSU and FSU in your bowl game! You got literally raped by FSU at home in 1987, and lost 1989. That was a trifecta.
As for games that crushed me, wide rights, all of them!

Wasn't really a spanking though. Just a really good game from both sides.

Nope. I'm not kidding you. Can you believe that? I believe Auburn was the best team in the country in 1988 top to bottom. I believe Auburn was the best team in the country in 1983 and again in 2004. I believe Tennessee was the best team in the country in 1985, and I believe Georgia was the best team in the country in 2007. Isn't that something? Crazy how's this opinion thing works, huh?
Not sure what 1987 or 1989 has to do with 1988 but then you are a Bama guy so you're not very smart.

You guys had us in Baton Rouge, let it get away. You lost your Bowl Game. No one can stake a claim losing a bowl game
