Missouri - 1960 Kansas?


It ended up being a win. But yes, that is the correct answer as it cost us the national title.

Yeah, I know it was forfeited just a few days later and Missouri was Big 8 champ in the Orange Bowl but both the AP and Coaches had already voted Minnesota #1.

What is it with schools associated with the military?

Navy cost us a national title.

Citadel is something we will never live down.

Our most devastating loss happened a week after yours.

Either one of us could have beaten Miami too

Yep, Miami hadn't seen a run game like UT's nor an air attack like UF's. Either one could of whooped that arse.

Our team that year was bad on the D-line. FSUs offense would have eaten us alive.


Wuuuut

Slow your roll daves. We would've given FSU all they could handle and probably come out on top.

FSU squeaked be a number of shitty teams that season.

Auburn beat us on 2 fluke plays.

2011 LSU, in the moment, felt more devastating to me.

For me it's "run badword run" I was there and was a witness to the horror. One minute euphoria, the next the darkest of dispair. It sucked.

2001 Tennessee, or Georgia Southern. 1999 Alabama was pretty bad too. It ended a long home unbeaten streak.

Kick Six - killed a chance at a historic 3-peat. Put me in the group that thinks we handle the Noles.

You nailed it. The damage was already done.

Shoulda beat them anyways though. Can only blame ourselves.

Losing to Georgia as the #1 team in 85 likely cost us the AP national title. We would've been the only undefeated team in the country otherwise.

Stoernover was heart breaking, 1969 was devastating. Had we won that game we would have had two national championships within 5 years, who knows where the program would have gone from there!

Good to see Georgia on the giving end of a couple these. But seriously, that 02 Florida loss was a killer. That being said, we weren't jumping OSU or Miami that year.

2014 A&M. Got our head out of our arse for one drive only to butt fumble and send the season in a nose dive

For the dawgs, every Florida game is a killer. There have been some bad, bad losses (cue we beat auburn). Seriously though, UGA has to start beating those guys

That Arkansas team probably would have won a national title if they had won that game. I know they eventually lost to State, but you gotta believe that loss was deflating.
