re: What was the most satisfying win for you as fan for your team

I was kind of rooting for Florida in that bc I thought if we lost there was no way they would make O the coach

Any self-respecting Bama fan should have to qualify his answer. Of the Nick Saban era, 2009 SECCG vs Florida. The Gators were going for historic great with 3 championships in 4 years. They openly acknowledged they wanted that first undefeated season as well. Many first-round picks came back for their senior season, along with Tebow, to get it all done. That loss broke Urban Meyer.

And most of all, it resulted in our first NC under coach Saban and started the dynasty that continues to this day.

Go back folks to 1992 and just stare at the SECCG all-time appearances by SEC teams. Alabama and Florida have owned this game since it's inception.

Most Gamecock fans (myself included) would say that was the loudest and most intense atmosphere Williams-Brice has ever seen

It was all over for Georgia when they did that surprise military homecoming before the game. Other than maybe the punt return, the stadium has never been louder than when SFC Faile came out of the tunnel

“1981- Mississippi State in T'town....
1984- Auburn-first losing season in my lifetime, but beat AU
1990- Tennessee- nobody gave Alabama a chance”

1981 State - Bama was a gut wrenching loss for us. It was 13-7 late and we had a first and goal at the one yard line. One of our lineman jumped pushing us back five yards to the six and Bama held on for the win.

For me it was 1980. Bama had an overall 28 game winning streak, a 26 game SEC winning streak and a 22 game streak over State. It was absolute pandemonium at the end in Memorial Stadium.

so like...every year?

It was pretty loud that year we played #4 Ole Miss on a Thursday night. I ran from the class my professor let us out early from and made that run from Gambrell Hall to the stadium and didn't miss kickoff.

Remember Jevan Snead? Underrated game that people overlook sometimes, it was LOUD. I'm also biased because I was a student then. I was at the 35-7 UGA beating in the 'old people' section and I was dying to be sitting with the students.

Edit: Damn I just looked up Snead and didn't realize he committed suicide.. frick.

2014 was a great year for MSU wins—but I think they’re more satisfying when you don’t expect them. In 2014, I didn’t expect to beat LSU or Auburn, so those were especially great.

Outside of that, I think the 2013 egg bowl was satisfying. We were in trouble of not making a bowl, Dak had a nerve injury, and Hugh Freeze was riding pretty high that year. It was great to see the melt from Ole Miss fans after that.

46-41 was cathartic. It just felt like a huge weight was lifted and we could finally enjoy the season.

But on a satisfaction level, I have to agree with you about A&M 50-7. Death Valley was amped up, Burreaux, and the the fact that our best team ever was supremely motivated to destroy A&M completely made that a night to remember.

I knew the beatdown was coming but it was even more savage than I could've imagined.

Also on the satisfying list was the Peach Bowl last year. Just so much fun to witness.
