Remember last time we faced LSU at home?

[John Clay Rice Jr.]

I was ticked when that happened!!!:mad: I Was all "We won!" to "BULL CRAP!"

[blueshock]

i have erased that moment from memory. the last thing i remember is guymo getting dowsed with gatorade, then it all goes blank from there...

my wife went with me to that game so i've never allowed her to go to game with me since:icon_lol:

As an LSU fan, it was one of the greatest endings to a game I've ever seen.

Unfortunately, a similar ending happened at the end of the season, with LSU on the short end of the stick, so I can empathize with you Wildcat fans! :)

I remember that day all too well. I was at work and couldnt watch the game. My dad calls me and explaims that we had won the game. A few moments later, he calls back to tell me that we didn't win it....he was much less emphatic at this point...disgust is the only word that comes to mind when thinking of how he said it to me. I had a tape set up to tape the game to watch after work (normally I'm HIGHLY irritated when someone tells me the score, but I worked in retail so I had gotten used to overhearing scores if I was at work...I'm gald I got the heads up on this one though, I don't think i could have taken it).

It's time to exercise that demon!

[leroybyrd]

I turned the TV off and laid face down in the floor for at least an hour after that game. Total shock.

[bret1555]

No. . . No, I don't remember what happened. Did we play LSU at home, before?

[Josh]

I try to forget that it ever happened.

[CoquieKat]

I was in grad school at UK at the time. I remember just sitting in front of the TV for like 5 minutes after the game ended with my mouth hanging open. Once I gained my composure, I called my dad in Louisville and asked him, "Did you see that? Did you see that?" He didn't even have to ask what I was talking about.

I wish I could forget it.

I remember.

I remember screaming at Teflon Guy for pulling the bonehead move of not letting the clock run down to 3 or 4 seconds before calling the timeout.

I remember everyone celebrating and cheering when we kicked the field goal to go ahead but I didn't.

I remember stepping over to my brother's seats and hearing him ask me why I wasn't celebrating.

I remember remembering at that moment all the close football losses that were snatched from the jaws of victory in the past that I had witnessed as a UK fan.

I remember telling my brother there was too much time on the clock and that watching UK football will tear your heart out (making the motion of pulling his heart from his chest).

I remember sitting for what seemed like hours (just minutes) totally disconsolate after watch the ensuing debacle.

I remember just last week in the stands at SC just knowing in my heart that up until the Gamecocks scored that final TD that we were going to find a way to come back and win that game.

I remember that I am a fan of the greatest University in this land and our teams will no longer be like I remember.

I remember. I was on a flight from Atlanta to Lexington on one of those puddle jumpers. People kept asking the stewardess, who was British, what the score of the football game was. She kept saying things like, "Umm, American football or British football? Oh, um, a university team? Is it the Lexington football team?" It was driving us crazy, but people were smiling. She had to go up to the cockpit to get the score, and she came back every time with UK ahead. People were clapping.

Well, we landed, and I went to wait for my wife in the front lobby. The next bench over, a lady waited for her husband. As he walked up, she asked about the game. He spoke really, really slowly every time with a big country twag, as did she:

"Well, did the Cats win?"

"Well, we kicked a field goal with seconds left to go ahead. We had it won."

"So we won?"

"Well, now you didn't let me finish. They dumped Gatorade all over the coach, and fans were rushing the field. LSU tried a hail mary pass with no time left on the clock."

"So we won?"

"Well, now, I'm not finished. The UK guys deflected the pass right into an LSU player's hands, and he ran into the end zone and beat us with no time left; last play of the game."

"oh."


This was the most agonizing conversation I've ever eavesdropped upon.

[poodoo]

I remember.

Oh, YES to that last statement. RV!

Too, I've taken this thread back to the top so we can remember LSU's Hail Mary pass completion and all those other close losses and SEE and ENJOY the difference. Yes, that memory and the others other make yesterday's victory over LSU all the sweeter.

These past couple of seasons, we have some quite different last-second moments to REMEMBER, and I LOVE it! Too, I agree our teams are now NOT going to be like some of those some of fans REMEMBER. :)
