When LSU and Auburn get together, crazy things happen. From an entertainment perspective, few rivalries across the sport can compare to this one.
Six of the last seven games have been decided by one possession and the margin of victory for the winning team in those six is just 3.6 points.
But here, we’re going back a bit further. All the way to 1988 for the game that’s now known as “The Earthquake Game.”
After a one-loss season in 1987 and entering 1988 ranked, LSU lost two straight.
LSU fell from the AP Top 25, ending a streak of 65 consecutive polls that LSU found itself ranked, a stretch that began in Week 4 of 1984.
In honor of Auburn playing at LSU tonight, in what will be the last annual meeting between the two before the SEC changes its schedule format, let’s go back to one of Tiger Stadium’s most memorable nights.
