I think it is fair to say that the end of the 2004 LSU football season sucked. Not the whole season mind you, just the ass end of a promising season that was derailed in early October. As the season played out, that ridiculous penalty against LSU in the Auburn game loomed larger and larger. Now there was no guarantee that LSU would have won that game, but…had LSU survived overtime and finished 10-1, the Tigers would have made their third appearance in four years in the SEC Championship.
What if…what if…what if!
Saban’s departure was inevitable and only a matter of time. While I was not as upset as some other folks, his announcement definitely put a damper on Christmas. The Capital One Bowl was a stinker for the first three quarters before the Tigers woke up only to give up a last second hail-mary to the Hawkeyes. (Remember UK in ’02? What goes around comes around…blah, blah, blah.)
Good riddance to 2004!Hello 2005!!
