The guys today never made a final NFL roster. One never practiced due to injury and received $190 for gas. Bedico made the roster in the G League and played in 5 pro games. Texas brought a player back that participated in 2 NFL minicamps. Not a word. Bunch of hypocrites.
re: Best Game You Ever Saw Not LSU

Best attended. 1977 Ole Miss vs Notre Dame in Jackson. Ole Miss dominated the game but only won 20-13. ND was loaded Joe Montana, Ross Browner, Vegas Fergason, among others. 15 players from ND went on to play in the NFL. Their only loss of the season and they went on to win the national title. I still have the program from the game. Same year LSU was down to Ole Miss by 21 in Jackson and game back to win 28-21. Ensminger and Charles Alexander went off. Best game not attended would be like many here have listed, OU vs. Boise.

Not even close. I had season tickets in the South Endzone for 40 years, but had friends in both upper decks. I have sat in both several times. Been covered thoroughly. Sun is horrible on the eastside. Last post brought up escalators, but did not mention the express elevators on each side of the West deck. which are staffed by LSU and the lines move through theatre style ropes to avoid chaos. Lines move quickly. Another factor is the concessions and bathrooms are much better on the West Deck. I would rather sit at the top of the West than at the bottom of the East. Very high but the big screen TV in the North endzone and at each corner of the South endzone insure you won't miss the action.

Give his "team" what they want. Too late to do anything with current publications. As far as the website goes, scrub his name from all stats. Same for future media guides and programs. Instead label them as Jonh Doe QB 5. No pictures of him. No history before LSU. Just Label him as a transfer into the program. Cover his name on the LSU Heisman trophy with John Doe. No credit to Identify him. No alumni rights to athletic facilities or sideline access. Totally osctracize his arse unless he comes out with a full apology for his butt hurt childish antics. BTW one of my favorite LSU players of all time, but this BS changes everything. What about Matt Mauk or Matt Flynn. Not even close on the QB stats, but they managed their team and delivered National titles. JD didn't even have the balls to play in the bowl game after he won his reward.

40 year season ticket holder. Graduated from LSU. Living in OKC at the time. I got my tickets for the game from a broker for $750 each. I hate those car flags for the noise. But on the return trip to OKC, I stopped in Gainesville, TX just south of the border and put my LSU flags out. The last 130 miles into OKC I drove the speed limit for the first time in my life. Returning OU fans on the same route. I bet I might of set a record for the number of middle fingers and horn honks I got from the OU fans on that stretch. They were still waving their weathered championship flags from 2000 before the game. Didn't see one after the 2003 game.
re: Weirdest game you ever seen in Tiger Stadium?

Most here are too young for this one. 1982 Florida State. The fog rolled into Tiger Stadium and you couldn't see the field if you were half-way up in the stands. Winning that game sent us to the Orange Bowl. Oranges were flying out of the stands onto the field. Following week we were upset in the last game of the regular season by Tulane.
I had had my tickets for 40 years when I finally cut the cord in 2020 because of Covid. 20 of those years traveling from Madison, MS. Eight of those years traveling from OKC. I had BB tickets for eight years and gave them up at the same time. I received multiple calls from the athletic department at the time. Not having tickets doesn't keep you from tailgating if you want to. It's easy to leave campus prior to game time and make it home if you live in BR to watch from the comfort of your media room. Bathroom, bar and food. Easy to get tickets for most non-conference games. Pick one good conference game and pay a premium. Still way cheaper than the season tickets.

Too many great ones during the season. But this says it all how he won over his team and the fan base.

Team built for a small ballpark. Won't cut it in Omaha.
