The game that broke the ole ball coach.

Was not in attendance for 2012 A&M (vs Auburn) but condolences to those who were.



Dude, it was painful, even for we fans on the winning side. the only other time in my life I have seen a team just give up like that was A&M losing to OU 77-0.

2019 South Carolina - We’d supposedly turned the corner under Kirby but Richt comparisons were rampant after that gutter-ball


I was at that game as well. Complete shocker. SC was 25 point underdogs against UGA that day.

2007 LSU 41 Ole Miss 24. I stayed for the whole thing in the rain. Ed Orgeron would have the Golden Egg wrapped up in Starkville five days later when he decided to go for it on fourth down and hand Sylvester Croom an unexpected victory (we had a 14 point fourth quarter lead). First winless season in the SEC since 1982 for the Rebs. That Eggbowl featured the two dumbest coaches in modern SEC history. Ed had the nerve to complain about being fired after the game. However, he recruited well and allowed Houston Nutt to con the fan base into thinking he was something special the next year.

1. Jville St '10 - coming off two good seasons and just lay a giant egg to start the season and signal the sudden beginning of the end of Coach Nutt.

2. Wake Forest '06 - Drubbed 27-3 at home by a woeful WF program in September. Turns out WF was really good that year and ended up winning the ACC, but we didn't know that would happen at the time and just thought, wow we really must suck.

3. Egg Bowl '96 - last game on probation w/ Tubberville, got shut out 17-0 that featured no offensive points by either team save a 2-point conversion at the end by MSU to make it 17-0. Neither team amassed more than 250 yds of offense in the mudfest.

2016 UGA vs. Nicholls State - it was not extremely hot that day, maybe low to mid 90s, but it felt very hot. UGA pulled it out 26-24, so it was a win, but it sure didn’t feel like it. A lot of anxiety in the student section and the crowd in general.

2016 UGA vs. Vanderbilt - Same year. Wasn’t as hot but it was warm for October. UGA played terrible and lost 17-16 I think. At one point, we had a kickoff return where the returner caught the ball at the 1 yard line near the sideline and then fell out of bounds right after catching it. 4th and 1 at the end of the game, we ran a toss sweep with WR Isiah MacKenzie with Nick Chubb as the lead blocker. Head scratcher.

2019 UGA vs. South Carolina - Terrible game. Probably outgained South Carolina 2 to 1, but turned the ball over, missed field goals. Lost in overtime 20-17.

2016 Tennessee is an honorable mention, but even though it ended poorly for UGA it was a great game, and I didn’t want to include three games from the same season. 2016 GT also. There were some serious growing pains Kirby’s first season.

2010 was painful at DKR. Not only did the right tackle tip off the D EVERY time by how he lined up, you could call the pick Gilbert was about to throw by watching where he was staring.

We literally took turns calling the play before the snap all season to keep from going nuts.

Ole Miss played LaTech in 1992 in a cold, November rain when the team was pretty bad. 22,500 turned out to watch a thrilling 13-6 Rebel victory.

2007 Arkansas vs. Ole Miss--Darren McFadden went nuts his senior year, Rebels lost 44-8.

2011 we lost the home opener in a classic Houston Nutt come-from=ahead defeat after a 4th quarter collapse, 14-13. The crowd was sullen leaving, knew it was over. It was the start of a 2-10 season, with Nutt's sorry 2 wins over Southern Illinois and Fresno State eventually vacated.

I present to you just about every game coached by Chad Morris at Arkansas. We weren't just beaten by North Texas and Western Kentucky... we were bombed by them. The games weren't even competitive.

I still remember talking about Kenny Trill that Friday

I remember when Arkansas got blown out by those teams, especially after the Western Kentucky game, which I think was the second of the two, combined with the losses to Colorado St, San Jose St, and squeaking by Portland St, that Chad Morris had sunk Arkansas to levels almost unimaginable. He has to be the worst head coach in modern SEC history. Between him and Croom.

2014 Mississippi State @ LSU: the final score makes it look like a competitive game, but State completely dominated for 3 quarters until Mullen took his foot off the gas in the 4th and gave Les a chance to get back into it. TS was nearly completely empty when time ran out. Broke a 14 game winning streak against the Bulldogs.

frick that shite. Some State fan was constantly swinging his hat around and he walloped me on the forehead with a mental buckle on the hat. Also, as an LSU fan I will add any game we have ever played against Troy.

Georgia Tech @ UGA in 2008.

Around the beginning of the Paul Johnson era at GT. It was a rainy day and GTech waS hanging around after the first half. Eventually due to turnovers and just bad defense they got ahead and we were playing catch up. We'd score to close the gap then just couldn't get a stop and they'd march down the field. They ended up rushing for over 500 yards and we lost that day 45-42.
It was Tech's first win in the rivalry in 7 years, their fans were very obnoxious.

Chad Morris was easily worse than Croom. Croom at least had a winning season. Morris is the worst head coach I've ever seen. He was even mediocre to poor at SMU before being hired at Arkansas.

Watched Bama stomp a mud hole in us 31-7 at JHS in ‘01 with Andrew Zow at QB. That was a low point.

Watched the entire team quit on Gene Chizik against Texas A&M in 2012 63-21

This technically doesn’t qualify as a home stadium because the Iron Bowl was at Legion Field, but I was at the “Bo Over the Top” IB when Auburn drove the field with just a few minutes on the clock and won 23-22. Bear Bryant’s last Iron Bowl before he died.

The 2012 “John L Season” 52-0 game against Bama. I distinctly remember thinking that Nick was trying not to run the score up on us, but we weren’t having any of that.
