Was the last time we made a game winning FG the 2007 Egg Bowl?

[Tater]

I think teams (both us and our opponent) are on like a 1-15 streak since that game with GW FG attempts. 2016 UK is the only one that I can remember since 07 Egg. Someone double check my memory.

St. Petersburg bowl win over Miami (Ohio) in 2016, and I think that's it.

It's pretty crazy looking back over our scores the last decade plus just how few have been decided by 3 points or less, or even by a TD or less. We tended to win fairly comfortably and lose big.

Well we lost the Egg Bowl in 2007. But I did a google search and man all I saw was heartbreak and sorrow in that department. Arkansas this year, South Alabama, LSU, 1983 Egg Bowl. All lost on last-second field goal misses.
I remember Arkansas spoiling two or three attempts in 2000 during that Godawful sleet storm. That was the worst.

The last time I remember a kicker winning a game is in 1999 against Kentucky. I'm sure there are others but that's the last I remember.

Didn't we block a field goal against Miami Oh. to win that game?

Definitely won the Egg Bowl in 07 on Adam Carlson?s GW kick.

I thought we also beat Arky on a FG in the Sleet game!

1999 Ole Miss game too - the Tip/Pick/Kick game

Yes, you're right. I wasn't even looking at the time left, we kicked our FG with 12 minutes left in the game. So it doesn't really apply here.

[msudawg1200]

Miami, OH and Arky both mentioned. We blocked FG's to win both of those. If the Arky sleet game you're talking about is 2000 not 2015, Westerfield actually had A FG blocked which sent it to OT where we lost 17-10.

If memory serves the DOGS beat #4 Tigahs in the first night game (portable lights) at Scott Field on a last second FG by a kid from La. The coldest game I remember and probably one of the five best......John Bond at his toughest......

1982. I remember watching that on TV as a 9 year old. That was a big deal.

Weird year. We were decent. Started 3-0, lost 6 straight, then beat LSU and Ole Miss.

We hit our FG well before it was game winning. I guess I could have specified as Game ending.

We definitely won that one as CC said it got O fired.

[QuadrupleOption]

Definitely won the Egg Bowl in 07 on Adam Carlson?s GW kick.

Sigh. I was thinking about the 1997 game we lost on the last second two point conversion.

Jeez I'm old.

[Gypsy_RoadDawg]

No, we lost. It was the start of the downfall in the JWS era. We were never the same after that game. The downward spiral continued on in to the next two seasons (01-02). I may be wrong but that is how I remember it.

[Maroonthirteen]

I can't think of a game ending, winning FG for State since the 2007 Egg Bowl. We had a game tying, pressure kick that we made vs Arkansas in 2010 to send the game to OT.

The St Pete bowl we blocked a kick at the end to win, just like at Arkansas 2015. But our winning points in the bowl game, off a FG, came with 12 minutes left.


The only game winning FGs made by State, that I can think of...... are 2007 EB, 1999 v UK and OM, 1998 Arkansas, 1997 v Memphis (which there may have been some time left but it was very close to the end of the game). I may be missing some. I don't have very good recall on the Croom era for whatever reason....ha. Also, Artie Cosby hit a 54 yarder v Memphis around 1984 or 85. THen someone mentioned Dana Moore's winning FG v LSU at home.


Oh, didn't we MISS a game tying or winning v LSU in 2015? Early in the season at home.

Maybe, I remember that game.

The start to me was 2001 and 9/11. We had started season well but that home loss to USC really did us in. The 2001 O had every starter returning except the center Fair. The O just never got going after that.

The other problem in 2001 was we lost another NFL entire DL. The JUCO fills ins were too big a drop off and several were busts.

2013 didn't we hit the game tying FG to send to OT?

[Tater]

2013 didn't we hit the game tying FG to send to OT?

Hit a 36 yd FG with 2:21 to go to tie it and then missed a 39 yd fg to win it as time expired.

Yeah I was thinking we tried two. Wasn't the second one a long one though? That game was the legend of Dak born.

I think the field being a quagmire had more to do with missing the FGs than Arkansas's defense did. The Hogs must have felt right at home in the pig pen though.
