We always talk about WTF losses on here, but what about games that you went in giving your team zero chance and they somehow pulled it out? For LSU I would have to say both the Florida and Auburn games in 2017. Florida was a week after we shite the bed against the mighty Troy Trojans and a revenge game for that disgusting hurricane debacle and we win on a missed extra point from Eddie Piñeiro. The AU game from 2017 is still one of the funniest fricking games I’ve ever seen and all I know is that multiple pieces of furniture would have been broken in my house if I was a Barner.

Would the Northern Iowa game from the 2016 NCAA Tournament 2nd Round count?

Football I would say 2002 Oklahoma.

Man, Auburn fans are going to have a rough time picking just one.

As an Alabama fan? Probably the 2012 LSU game. Not necessarily going into it, but as that game progressed I kept expecting it to go badly. LSU had 100 more yards and was +2 in TO ratio, but a pair of missed FGs and a pair of failed 4th down conversions, followed by the screen pass to Yeldon with less than a minute left. Crazy.

2004 UGA. A week after getting our asses kicked by Auburn, it didn’t seem like we had a chance in hell of winning that game.


Edit: I’ll also throw in ‘98 Arkansas, because all hope was lost

UGA 2006 win over Auburn...Auburn was number 5 and we still beat them as an unranked team in their house

2004 against Florida. We were 1-5 heading into that game including loses to national powerhouses Maine, Vanderbilt and UAB. We averaged a whopping 12.5 PPG in that stretch including a 51-0 shutout against LSU 2 weeks prior but went on to hang 38 on the Gators.

#2 Georgia in 2018 or #10 Auburn in 2017 for me. The way we completely dominated UGA in 2018 was a shock to us all and beating a really good Auburn team in 2017 as well after a loss to Troy 2 weeks prior.

2016 Auburn.

Auburn was Top 10 and they didn't get a first down in the 2nd half.

Georgia's only TD was a pick-six and they won 13-7.

Not exactly what you're asking for, but for me it was watching a Gus Malzahn offense score 56 points in the first half against a decent Purdue team in the Music City Bowl. I expected Auburn to win, but sheesh.

For LSU, I don't know how you look past 1993 at Alabama. That team was coached by Curley Hallman, and ended a very long non-losing streak (Bama went unbeaten the year before, but had a tie to Tennessee I believe earlier in the season). Spread was 24.

Another that comes to mind is the 2001 SEC Championship Game. For me, that is still the single greatest moment I can remember. Yes, that includes the 3 natties since then. It was just so unexpected, and it really felt like that game thrust us into relevance on the national scene. Especially because Tenner was playing for their shot in the natty, and it was referenced over and over during that game. Spread was only 7.

ETA: Honorable mention would go to 1997 Florida, but it wasn't like that was wholly unexpected, other than the fact that Spurrier completely and utterly owned us. Our only win over a Spurrier-coached Florida team. At least we were able to get some wins over Spurrier while at USC. Spread was 15.

2000 vs. UGA. At the time, we were a win against New Mexico State removed from a 21-game losing streak, while UGA had a Heisman candidate at QB (or so they thought). I don't think anybody thought we'd beat the Dawgs that day.

One of the two games that I’m certain Brandon Cox played through still drunk/extremely hungover in (the other being the Cap One bowl against Wisconsin in the prior season)
