The Citadel. 1992.

At Razorback Stadium.

Now I've got to go visit Mr. Woodford, and his reserve.

1. 1992 vs. Citadel loss 3-10. We start off our inaugural season in the SEC with a loss to a D1-AA school. We did go on to beat #4 Tennessee in Knoxville.

2. 1996 vs. SMU loss 10-23. This was the post death penalty SMU. It was also after the SWC folded and SMU was a WAC team.

3. 2015 vs. Texas Tech loss 24-35. Losing to Tech is bad regardless of when and where. Losing to Queensbury is worse.

Homecoming Ole Miss 1988. Did not complete a pass. I think that was the brick through the window game wink wink.

Most humiliating home loss was 66-28 in 2008, but that coach lasted another 3 seasons

Most would probably say it's one of the Lousiana Tech losses, or maybe one of the Northern Illinois, Central Florida, or La Monroe losses.


Not really. Most of those teams were actually better than we were in those seasons, not LaMo, but definitely UNI.

it's when we got shut out at home 21-0 by Southern Miss in 2000.


Not in Tuscaloosa, as it was one of the last seasons that there were games at Legion Field, but this is the one. THIS was humiliating.

Not even close.

Toledo had a good football team.

The Citadel was I-AA.

Southern Mississippi beat Alabama in 1990. I was a student at the time and thought it was damn funny. Southern Miss beat Auburn a few weeks later.

Thank God there was no sec rant then.

That 2000 season in general is the low point of everything for me.


Yep. #3 preseason and we won three games.

Apparently Shaun Alexander and Chris Samuels mattered a lot.

Jax State
LSU when they kneeled like 20 times
Tie: 4th and 25 and the Eli fall down game were humiliating in the sense of not a beat down but the entrenchment of the WAOM factor in respect to winning the West.

Aub and Tubbs return to Oxford: This game I have to mention because even though it was a battle and Aub was leading 28-27 at the end of the 4th, Duece had just returned a kick for a TD and we stopped them. We had the ball and the momentum but then Aub intercepted Romero Miller. Rudi Johnson was given the ball and ran it down our throats AT WILL. The whole stadium knew there was no stopping him. The whole defense knew he was getting the ball and he did every down, one after the other. Death, taxes and Rudi Johnson running the ball down your throat to seal your fate. It was absolutely humiliating.

Arkansas kicking our arse and while they're doing it we decide to pop fireworks in the daytime, DAYTIME FIREWORKS, to celebrate our beatdown.

I have to stop. Too many. So much pain. So much pain. I have to go mix a stiff drink.

2008 Bama

The 2015 game was bad too, but 08 was when the Richt era lost its swagger. Just got disrobed in front of God and America.

I wouldn’t wanna tell you dawgs your business, and I realize the final score was closer in the end...


...but i would have guessed dawgs were more humiliated in ‘08 than ‘15 before this thread.

I guess i can see their point about it being the breaking point with Richt, but from a Bama fan perspective, dunking on you guys in 2008 felt way more violent.

2012 vs Texas A&M.

Something like 42-0 at halftime and what humiliated me the most was the attitude of our players on the sideline. They were dancing and cutting up and not giving a shite at all about what was happening to them on the field.

i'll see you and raise you 1988 #5 FSU 59 #15 Carolina 0 (31 seasons ago, so maybe it don't count )

the absolute worst night ever inside W-B, and painfully I was in attendance for the 3 you listed as well.

in typical Gamecock (mis)fortune, we played against a first-time starter/then-unknown backup FSU qb Peter Tom Willis - who promptly threw for 4 TDs. Gamecocks also had a punt blocked/returned for a TD. I could be wrong but it felt like Todd Ellis threw 37 of his 78 career INT's in that game alone. Deion only had to play the first half.

Ole miss on homecoming 1988.....by 10 points. This is always gonna be number one for me.

Southern miss 2000.....21-0 and we didn't sniff a td.

Central Florida 2000....not that we lost but we're down like 37-17 in the 3rd qtr.

That was the day scheduled for the Bear Bryant museum ribbon cutting. Bama brass did push it back a week as a result of that loss, but know and remember this:

Every time you walk into that museum and cry over your deity, we beat your arse the day you were to honor him, and those tears you cry, are delicious.
