re: Worst Games You've Witnessed in Your Team's Stadium

Way too many to list my friend. One that sticks out is the Temple game right after James Franklin left for PSU. It was Derek Mason’s first game and there was still a little buzz left around the program. We had gotten used to competing and liked it. There was a several hour rain delay and that caused the game to start at like 10pm. It started off with some weird penalty about our illegal uniforms and just got worse from there. Temple beat us 37-7 and we all knew we were back to being a joke of a football program. Derek Mason proceeded to run our football program back into the ground.

AD Jeff Long was fired and Morris was hired by a clown committee a day before the new AD was hired.

It wasn't a great secret that even our acting AD, who was there mostly to hold down the fort, didn't want Morris. But after striking out on stealing Gus Malzahn the big money boosters who were running things panicked and settled on Morris.

It was a brutal time to be a Razorback fan.

When they fired long, they should have hired Yuracheck first and let him do the coaching search but no the big money people had to screw it up and did the hiring themselves.

Yuracheck didn't hire Morris and it was very obvious that meddling was taking place and these dummies had zero clue of what they were doing.

2005, close game but Jay Culter carved up our D, it was a tease for what happened at USC the next week.
2012 Alabama did whatever they wanted 52-0 ugh

2019 vs Portland St. took a late score to win, Chad Morris should’ve resigned after that.

1988 Miami LSU. 44-3 loss in a monsoon. Or maybe it was a hurricane.

This one. I was pretty young and me and my step-dad stayed until the end. It was pretty much us 2 standing in 412 and all of the student section as the ones left.

Cannot believe someone hasn’t mention Texas A&M vs Iowa St 2005 in 2005 where A&M lost 42-14 and some no name Iowa St. WR had 200+ yards and 4 TDs despite behng triple covered. The absolute worst game of the Fran era and the only game I ever left before halftime as a student. Just an absolute destruction and pure incompetence on A&M’s side.

The Appalachian state game was bad but we weren’t dominated and it’s clear the problem was self inflicted.

That was when I officially gave up on Fran and was ready for the next coach.

I had great seats for that game. Cutler was in rare form that night. Surgical shite.

Homecoming against MAINE under Croom. Just how many times can we fumble running to the end zone?
Field Goal?
Forget about it.

1. 2001 LSU 42 State 0. We were supposed to contend for the SEC West. Most had us preseason 15-20 with at least one publication having us 8. Lee Corso called us a National Championship sleeper after beating Memphis on Labor Day 30-10. Then 9-11 hit and we never recovered. Lost to Troy 21-9 (thank God I decided not to go) in the Tornado Game the week before, and LSU fans had Troy stickers on their hard hats and would chant "Troy State...Troy State" when we chanted our "Go State... Go State" cheer. It could've been worse and Saban pulled the dogs off up 42-0 midway through the 3rd. I was in the upper deck and started walking out after LSU made it 35-0 with about 10 minutes left in the 3rd. By the time I got down the ramp LSU had scored again.

2. 2000 Arkansas 17 State 10. We had a chance to win the SEC West. We were 7-2 and ranked 13. Arky was 4-5. It was the Saturday before Thanksgiving and the forecast was partly cloudy and low 50's. Well, I dressed for that, but it ended up being mid 30's with a mix of snow, sleet, and rain. Horrible conditions. I was cold and wet, but State took an early 10-0 lead and with our defense it was as good as over. Wrong. Arky found a running game in the 4th and tied it. We had a chance at a game winning FG from around 45 yards or so(easily in our kicker Scott Westerfield's range) on the last play that was blocked. We lose 17-10 in OT. West is lost. I'm cold and miserable and that began the end of Jackie, as we never recovered or were competitive under him again.

3. 2019 Kansas State-31 State-24. It was freaking scalding hot. The air temp was 99 with a heat index of 115 in the stadium. I was not impressed with JoMo's 2018 8-5 record with one of the best defenses in State history, but was in on giving him a chance. This changed that. KState pounded it down our throats and shoved us around all day. Embarrassing to let a Big 12 team come in our place on a steaming hot Mississippi day and shove it up our arse. Making it worse was their fans mockingly chanting "S-E-C S-E-C" and running around holding up Big 12 signs. Totally humiliating. I told my son leaving the stadium that day that Moorhead was not going to get year three which he didn't.

LSU-Bama 2002. We thought we were "hot stuff" after the Bluegrass Miracle. They came into Tiger Stadium, and whipped our asses from pillar to post.

LSU-Kentucky 1997. Tim Couch vs. Lou Tepper‘s LSU defense. He absolutely torched us in Tiger Stadium.
