    1963 or 64. Both teams highly ranked. Myself and two friends had three tickets for the game at Tiger Stadium. (teen years) Two together and one alone in the endzone. When we got to the stadium, we flipped coins. Odd man had to take the separate ticket. The guy who took his NEW Mustang lost. When he saw TS and lost the toss, I thought he would cry. He didn't want to sit alone. I told him I would sit there and we would swap at halftime. We met at the half and he still looked scared. I laughed and said I would not make him trade. OM was leading 10-3 late in the game. LSU scored with little time left. LSU decided to go for two and the win instead of a tie. (no OT at that time) A LSU player caught a "deflected" pass as he laid out to make the reception. LSU wins..........11-10. One fine game.

    The NCs. After that, the Arnsparger resurgence, and the falloff thereafter. You said Top 5 moments, not top 5 GOOD moments.

    One of the greatest are moments i have seen personally, it just means so much more.

    1) being there to see LSU's epic win over Florida completing 4/4 on fourth downs
    2) skipping night class and driving 5 hours to see LSU wipe the floor with MSU 45-0 in a game where it stormed the entire time, driving back right after the game and getting back at 6am, waking up and going to class at 9am
    3) 03 national championship
    4) LSUs come back win in game 1 of '09 CWS
    5) screaming myself hoarse watching the blue grass miracle live

    Championships are too easy to list as 1 and 2.
    so top 5 (non titles) of my lifetime in no particular order
    • Hodson to Fuller '88
    • Twillie int in '95 (vs Auburn)
    • Hester plowing into endzone vs Florida
    • Mauck to Skyler/Webster's pick to seal it
    • Curley Hallman gets sh!tcanned

    I don't know about top 5 in History but 5 of my favs are:


    1. Rohan and Josh Reed show against Bama
    2. Rohan to Royal in OT to beat UT
    3. 97 UF game
    4. Arizona State comeback
    5. Mauck to Skyler vs UGA


    One of my favorite plays in modern history is when Michael Clayton knocked the Auburn returner out cold on the kickoff team.

    Wish I had that one saved on the puter.
