I actually agree with the OP's top ten

I think the rule is ridiculous. I do think there are racist owners still (totally opinion), but making them interview minority candidates does nothing. After the interviews they are still racist and still won't hire the minority coach.

The rule needs to go.

This was not Miles first game, but yes that Tenn game was awful. It was also my first game in Tiger Stadium. One play for me would be the PP7 non-interception. Any play from the 50 burger Florida put on us could apply too. I try to forget that game even happened.


We must be around the same age because these were my three exactly. My first game in Tiger Stadium was the Florida game in '93 (Fla 58-3).

The worst I ever felt after a game was the Tenn. game after Katrina.

The PP7 non-interception stuck with me for weeks. I would say this was the worst single play I can remember.

Chad Jones is my second favorite Tiger of all time behind Kevin Faulk and Laron Landry is also very high on the list, but Ryan Clark was a better safety than they were. I'm too young to know many before them.

Obviously you haven't seen McCarrons chest tat.....
Matt Flynn was definitely cocky after he became the starter. Him and his friends came to a restaurant I worked at all the time and he was an arse. Before he was a starter he was nice though. At that point he was just part of Andrew Whitworth's entourage.
The Tennessee game after Katrina was by far the worst experience for a gameday. My little brother came to stay with me after the hurricane and he was 15 at the time. I let him have a tall boy, but didn't want to get him drunk. My dumbass roomate fed him shots of vodka right outside of the stadium without my knowledge. We had to go in through separate gates and by the time I caught up with him he was trashed. We stayed through the middle of the second quarter and then I took his drunk arse home. Needless to say, the second half meltdown and my puking 15 year old brother made for a terrible terrible day.
Kevin Faulk. Not only for what he did on the field, but his role in bringing the program back to its current status.
Football: Kevin Faulk; began the resurrection of LSU football

Basketball: Garret Temple; him shutting down JJ Reddick to get to the Final Four was fantastic and he's a hometown guy

Baseball: Wally Pontiff; went to the same high school he did and was a great example of how student athletes should carry themselves
I used to tutor athletes and believe it or not the football players were the ones that gave me the least trouble. They may not be able to speak proper English, but they aren't as stupid as most people think....and they also aren't taking the hardest classes.
That was the third year I remember being a Tiger fan. The Poulan Weedeater Bowl was the bigtime then.
O- Kevin Faulk
D- Chad Jones
ST- Eddie Kennison
2002-2009 (Undergrad and grad school):
53-19 (.7361)
2 National Championships with student tickets
Bar fighters- 31
Couch burners- 17
The Hat- 34
The bell- 14
Of course Cuban picked Oregon. He's a businessman and he has his Nike contract to think about.
If Corso and Lou Holtz pick LSU its the kiss of death!
Even if A&M leaves the Big 12, I seriously doubt it will happen that quickly. If they do break from the conference that quickly though, I'd imagine Towson would get the ax.
