2013 LSU/UGA is one of the best games that I've ever witnessed in person although we were on the losing end. I can't imagine how awesome that trip would have been had we won. Athens is a great college town and I can't wait to go back

Favorite? None.

There are plenty of games that were just excellent football games, speaking from an impartial point of view where it was just a great, great game. But I would never go as far as saying I have a "favorite" loss. There's nothing good about losing.

Good thing he is gone and Steele the Savior is now there.

1979 USC.

At the time the capacity was 78,000. It was deafening the whole game.
If McDaniel makes one of those Hail Mary catches in the back of the NEZ at the final gun, they may very well have had THE earthquake game....

Probably the A&M game, possibly the 2013 Iron Bowl.

don't forget his counterpart Grantham was trying to do the same thing on our side.

What lousy DCs that game, and great offenses.

I see you edited.

Ya know I started to list out most memorable losses, games in which I distinctly remember lots and lots of details about them because they were either very important to me or they were big for our season, and after I got to about 10 I decided it wasn't worth listing them all.

We've lost some crappy games I'll just say that

2014 South Carolina/Auburn game. Went back and forth the whole time and Spurrier pulled out a few of his tricks. It was a great game and I thought we might...just might...beat 'em. Guess that's what I get for thinking.

Maybe "most memorable" is still bad wording. 21-0 will forever haunt me along with 2010 Arkansas

oh no you're wording is fine. I starting listing memorable games (to me) since I've been following the team and just realized it'd be way too many to list.

Arky @ Ole Miss 2001... 7 over times... It was like watching 3 halfs.

Easily the 9-6 game.

Two of the greatest CFB defenses of all time and every foot gained was an accomplishment.

Agreed on that game. Instant classic. I wasn't even really that mad. Nothing but respect for Mett for life after that one.

2003 game vs Arkansas.

First game that I took my son. He was in awe of it all. When we walked through the tunnel to the stands and he saw the field I heard him say "Wow".

Kickoff was delayed by a thunderstorm. We were in the first row of the South endzone. It rained so hard, the aisle was about foot deep in water. We couldn't get in the tunnel because it was so crowded. We just sat there and were drenched down to our underwear.

I looked over at my son during the 2nd quarter and he was shivering a bit. I asked if he was okay or did we need to leave but he said "No way dad, this is the best day of my life".

Bama lost to Arkansas in double overtime but was one of the most memorable days of my life.

1969 GOTC with Texas.

More recently, '98 Stoernover against Tennessee.

I could name several that are even more recently, but I couldn't pick one over the others.

UGA at UT 2013.

UGA had the clear talent advantage and jumped out early to a big halftime lead. Then, the turf monster of Shields-Watkins field took out some knees and the comeback was on. A sack and blocked punt for TD later, and UT was about to give Mark Richt another trademark loss to an inferior opponent.

But it was to no avail. Our defense somehow made Aaron Murray look like Mike Vick and the talent advantage UGA had was too great to overcome.
