Kinchen sideline reception and spin move vs Florida State in 91. Still run that one in the front yard with the grand kids.

Basketball?
Half-time running off the court 3 pointer by Chris Jackson. Can’t remember who it was against but he never missed a stride was in the hallway when the ball swished through the net. Yes, the kids in the neighborhood call me CJ.

The Kentucky game where we won on the last play of the game when KU was already celebrating. Unbelievable.

3rd down and 17.

Burrow escapes the pressure and hits Jefferson who scores.

That play took the steam out of Texas.

Without that play, 2019 Championship run may not have happened.

For me that was the spark that lit my hopes for the 2019 season. When that happened I thought - 'whoa nellie - we GOT something here!!"

It is certainly the most recent play that I recall vividly

The one that sticks the firmest is the Halloween run of Cannon in '59.

I had that moment that we finally had our guy when Burrow audibled into the Brosette 50 yard TD against Miami in 2018 when it looked like the seas parting.

He was the prince that was promised






After being very confident since his signing, I remember immediately having that Happy Gilmore moment






As for others not mentioned, Ro to Reed for the toe tap in the back of the end zone against GT in the 2000 Peach Bowl was a Eureka moment.

Eric Alexander scoop and score against Arkansas in 03 made me realize we were out to give the voters something to think about that game, and boy did we ever.


Keiland hurdle over V Tech in 07, that team was out for blood.

Peterson punt return TD against UNC 2010, I still don’t think I’ve ever seen someone move that fast. His hamstring never fully recovered I don’t think


Tyrann all over the field and diving for that loose ball against A&M in the 2010 Cotton Bowl made me very excited for 2011


LF getting his facemask ripped off, literally, on that run against Ole Miss in 2014, legend shite. Then murdering Auburn’s whole defense in 2015.


Burrow TD to Dillon against Auburn 2018, just an absolute drone strike of a throw.

Prince that was Promised

Fournette running all over the Auburn player and CEH running over the Bama player. White’s tackling before going to Tampa Bay… you pick the tackle.

Punter Brad Wing taunting Florida as he strolled into the end zone. Does not matter that he was called for it - was the pinnacle of Tiger swag under Les Miles ha ha

Didn’t include this in my first post because it isn’t a “play”, but to this day the most incredible experience I’ve had as a fan was the whole sequence against UGA in 03 from when they scored the 93 yard TD on the late screen pass.

Crowd was great all day, but as that slow arse RB seemed to run in slow motion the entire length of the field you could have heard a fricking pin drop in Tiger Stadium.

But even before the extra point, hell it might have even started before he scored, you heard the L-S-U chant start. It was so quiet the whole stadium could hear it and before you knew it the whole goddamn stadium was erupting in the chant. It was defeaning and it didn’t stop through the whole commercial break until after the ball was kicked off.

The team was going wild on the sideline, then Devery broke the huge return to midfield, and that led to Mauck to Skyler for one of the most amazing sports moments I’ve ever witnessed, that incredible TD throw and catch right in front of the student section, right in front of my whole crew, we fricking went ballistic.

The crowd never let up even as Greene drove them past midfield before Corey Webster batted the ball up with one hand and picked it off with the other to end the game.

Just a whole series in a game I’ll remember as vividly as ever until the day I die.

At Florida 1982. Alan Risher to Dalton Hilliard screen pass. Dalton hurdles a diving florida player and does a classic Walter Peyton high stepping into the endzone from 40 plus for a TD.

The play in the back of my mind is one that hasn't been run before.
I would like our OC to figure out how to get JD on a fly route with someone in the game that could throw it far enough and let JD show everyone his fastest on the field speed.
Something like faint an injury and jog to the sidelines but not actually leave the field. Nuss goes in for the one play with a receiver overload on the opposite side of the field. JD takes off and Nuss lobs it up and JD runs under it. That would put a big smile on my face, because it is so HS, and would probably work. Preferably against Bama or A&M. I am just having a bit of fun!

The one that haunts me, and damn near cost us a natty, was Early Doucet lining up wrong against Arkansas 2007. We hit Hester on the wheel route for a 50 yd or so TD that would have won the game and saved us from having to go into OT. That's probably the most crushed I've ever been after a loss. But then, the wildest season of all time still had a few weeks to go, and the rest is history. Thank God, ending with LSU hoisting the crystal ball in New Orleans. 2007 will forever be the wildest season of all time. Undefeated (in regulation) National Champions LSU!

Well i cant remember the year outside of it was an away game at Arkansas and Karnell Hatcher took out his teammate on a tackle leading to a score...for maybe the third time in his career.

In honor of this weekend's game against the Rebs : the 72 game where Bert Jones got off 2 plays, including the game winner, with only 8 seconds remaining. Tiger Stadium had hedges all around the stadium then & sitting behind the Rebs' bench, I can still see their entire bench screaming & throwing their helmets into the hedges, kicking the water coolers over...while Johnny Vaught just stood there, in shock, frozen like a statute. Never saw so many post game fights out in the parking lots. That was back in the days of The Old Miss Riots.
