That was the week after SC upset #1 Alabama too. I was so pissed watching that game on TV.
up like 28-10 and Spurrier quit running the ball with lattimore.

Agree with the top 2. Might move up Arky 2021. Auburn 2007 belongs in there somewhere but that 2016 DSOR was strangely memorable. 2004 LSU also gets an honorable mention.
In the neutral category, 2012 WLOCP was as intense a game as I’ve seen in Jacksonville and it manifested within the crowd energy. Just felt physically spent after that one ended and couldnt speak for a few days after.

If you don’t have a good time at a LSU home game with all of the tailgating you are probably just an a-hole or an Aggie.

Iron Bowl 2008-Never saw BDS sustained noise that long. There was never a lull that day.
Iron Bowl 1989- first at JHS. The got dam earth was vibrating. Never ever heard a stadium that loud. Never forget the next season Bama went to Knoxville to play 4th or 5th ranked UT and before the game the late Kevin Turner was asked if he thought the noise would be a factor. He said nah, we played in Jordan Hare last year.

Mind boggling. As good as Spurrier was he had an uncanny ability to lose games he shouldn't while at SC.

I used to have an aunt & uncle that lived just outside Plaquemine. Holy cow they spoiled us rotten :) Not only their spread, but some of their friends as well. Man those were some great times, nothing came close. Sadly they've passed away but those memories are some of the best I have

The 2015 Oklahoma game was a really special atmosphere. This past seasons Ole Miss game was close. Went to Death Valley in 2010 and it was impressive. All three games were utterly heartbreaking

'74 Texas-OU in the Cotton Bowl; Earl & I were both freshman.
Walking into the Stadium, the hair stood up on the back of my neck. Seen it on dogs before, never on a human.

2. 2016 Alabama - an EXTREMELY underrated noise game. Two of the loudest moments I've heard in that stadium were the Jamal Adams pick on the opening possession and the 4th down stop. We were just arse and the final was 10-0, so it gets forgotten.

I was sitting in a section near the endzone when Cam broke off that long TD run. I think that was also the game where Garcia imploded in the 3rd quarter with multiple fumbles and got benched.

I’ll hit on one you didn’t mention. Ole Miss at home 2009. Crazy atmosphere for a Thursday night game. I had a test the next day… studied my arse off before that night and didn’t miss a second of the game. Professor for a 5:30 PM class let class out early after 30 minutes and I ran my arse from the Gambrell Hall area all the way to the stadium. Good times.
For those that don’t know that’s almost 2.5 miles which I think I ran in 25 or so minutes.

I was there as a senior. I'll never forget the atmosphere for both sides.
Some of you lament the loss of games in Legion Field but Bryant Denny wouldn't be near the place it is now without that game.

Unfortunately, I was also at the ‘89 Iron Bowl. It was a crazy atmosphere for days. I don’t think anyone could have beaten Aubie that day. Bama didn’t play poorly but couldn’t convert fourth downs.

Notre Dame was not ready for that. They were noticeably rattled by the crowd noise all night.

agree with Auburn and A&M, but that LSU game was away that year. Dan got cute and almost let them come all the way back

I've been to most SEC stadiums - not all, but by far my best experience was in Gainesville ... Folks in the bars were nice and courteous ... The tailgates were friendly and very accommodating to us as visitors. The previous year we beat Spurrier in Starkville so maybe the fans just knew what was coming ... and they were right (52-0)... Still the courtesy that was shown to us remains with me today.
Auburn for me seemed to be the most obnoxious time and time again but they also had their share of class fans - it was just fewer and further between

I’ve never had more satisfaction in a slaughter than that day, I think the same for the entire crowd. That game had a feel to it i had never felt at that point, because obviously we’d never had that long of a losing streak to them. Everyone knew we were going to end 6 years of misery to barn, the only question was how much of a beat down it would be.
Pregame was electric, Siran Stacy got us all jacked, then that fog descended around the top of the stadium and made it feel almost like a dome. Such a fun game, frick auburn
