Can think back to at least 1-2 games vs Oregon State & Kentucky leading up to Omaha in 2023, where we won.

** Zenon’s pick-6 TD vs Tenn in the 2007 SEC championship doesn’t get mentioned enough

Looking back on the 2010 season, it’s wild how many 1 score games this team played in
2010 was special. Patrick Peterson’s last year & Tyrann Mathieu’s first year included dozens of big moments. That 2010 Freshman class on offense and defense. was special. Steven Ridley pounded the rock. Drake Nevis & Kelvin Sheppard played extremely well.

Memorable, last-second wins @ Florida & the legendary Tennessee game. Beat Bama in Tiger Stadium and…need I mention when Pat Peterson struck the Heisman pose?!

How much sweeter does it make winning the national championship knowing we plowed through Tennessee in two CWS games and eliminated them?

I’d say a lot.
Getting to attend the 2021 Eugene regional will forever be one of my favorite LSU sports experiences. That weekend, LSU got shutout by Gonzaga to start the tournament and then came back to beat Central CT State in extra innings in the loser's bracket before beating Gonzaga in a rematch and then winning back-to-back games against Oregon to give us one last winning memory with Paul Mainieri.

While attending those games, I could not get over how special Dylan Crews and Tre Morgan were. There were other big moments from Dugas, Doughty, and some really clutch pitching performances that propelled us to winning that regional.

It was abundantly clear that we had talent lined up, and although we didn't know who Jay Johnson was at that point, you could see how this group could really develop back into a national championship contender with the right guy at the helm and some arms.

When LSU lost to Woke Forest and was sent to the loser's bracket, I have no doubt that the players referenced their experience winning 4 games in 3 days to come out that regional alive.

It's been such a joy watching this team get back to the mountain top, and I consider myself lucky to have witnessed the genesis of watching this team win big tournament games! :geauxtigers:
2003 - they went for it on 4th down at their own 30 in the first quarter, and the LSU D-line led by Chad Lavalais ate up Cadillac! Remember the stadium getting real loud for that Devery touchdown to start the game!

crazy how so many discredit the fact that Mainieri, although it may not have been full, left the roster with some key players for Johnson.

Quite the difference from how Orgeron left the football team for Kelly.

best Alex Box Stadium win since 2017 MS State Super Regional? Can't think of a better one
The boys really did hold the rope last night.

biggest 3 outs of the season

After Floyd gave up the the homer, he allows a double. Then another reaches base. Strike-‘em-out-throw-‘em-out. Then that fly out to left to send us into the delay with momentum, despite a 1-0 deficit. I know they scored 2 more to make it 3-0 in the 4th, but if we go into what became a nearly 3 hour delay with a larger deficit, I’m not sure we come back out with the same juice.

Although Floyd only gave us 3 innings, those 3 outs in the 4th could not have been any bigger.

Love to see this team not just slug their way to victory, but find different ways to win. Small-ball won + dominant pitching won us Game 1. Big outs and the long-ball lead us to victory in Game 2.

Absolutely love where this team is at right now. They’re locked in and playing like a fearless, tough baseball team. LFGEAUX!!!
Would love to see Jordan Thompson get hot! We're going to need the bottom of the lineup to produce for us if we're going to contend for the biggest prize.
