We don’t have to reach too far back in the memory bank for this one. Georgia ran over the Vols 41-0 last season, Tennessee’s second-worst loss in series history. Again, a team was shut out at home during a coach’s farewell tour, this time Butch Jones. Would you believe this is in the middle of another season under a coach on the way out?

Versatile backup Charles Turner also could play after a two-game absence. The first-year offensive staff should improve with experience. The coaches have emphasized pad level and aggressiveness this week, trying to help the players knock defenders off the line of scrimmage. NIU lost two “home” games that were played at Soldier Field in 2011 and 2012. So South Carolina claims those ended the streak for NIU even though the games weren’t on campus. Northern Illinois hasn’t played a ranked team at home since 2003, when it beat No. 15 Maryland in the season opener.
When was the last time LSU lost a game..
As a matter of policy, Sports Reference only reports the results of games as played on the field. See our list of forfeits and vacated games for more details. No one knocked off coach Ed Orgeron[/autotag] and LSU that season as the team finished 15-0 and earned the program’s third national title this century. The Tigers are still searching for their first win over ‘Bama since. Alabama has fairly inarguably been LSU’s biggest rival in football over the last 15 years since the program hired former Tigers national title-winning coach Nick Saban. But LSU hasn’t struggled to run the ball this much since the 1999 season.
Neither team has won without eclipsing the 100-yard threshold. Even when LSU changed its offensive philosophy in 2019, Clyde Edwards-Helaire sealed a win by rushing for 120 yards in the second half. The Buckeyes’ only two home losses in the last three years both came in 2011, when interim head coach Luke Fickell led the team its first losing season since 1988. The two defeats were to No. 21 Penn State (20-14) and unranked Michigan State (10-7).
LSU: Saturday
While LSU ranks 122nd in the country in rushing yards, Auburn (3-1, 0-0 SEC) averages 257 yards rushing per game. The last time LSU lost at home to an unranked opponent was in 2008 when Ole Miss came to Tiger Stadium and won 31-13. The sole home loss for the Bears in the last three years came in 2012, when unranked TCU strode into town and slapped them with an ugly loss. The Tigers haven’t lost a game to an unranked opponent in Memorial Stadium since 2008 when they fell to Georgia Tech.
No. 2 Alabama currently owns a six-game winning streak against LSU as the Crimson Tide hosts the No. 19 Tigers Saturday night in Tuscaloosa. The hope was that a night game would attract the people of Louisiana who would be finished with their work on their plantations and refineries. Many couldn't attend afternoon games, but they could easily make it to evening games. Kickoff provided a way for blue collar workers in Baton Rouge to kick back and relax while taking in some college football. The idea not only paved the way for the Tulane Green Wave football game but an opportunity for more fans to attend home games.
Auburn: 2012
No. 1 Alabama and No. 4 LSU meet on Saturday with major SEC and College Football Playoff implications on the line. These teams are no strangers to each other or to big stakes–the West division rivals have been going at each other for over a century.

In 1931, the Tigers had scheduling conflicts with Tulane, one of the country's best programs out of New Orleans and a regular rival. We have tools and resources that can help you use sports data. I think tha last loss at night was to Florida when we were shut out , I believe that was 2009 and the last back to back losses was in 2008. Authorities say they have a narrowing 48 hour window to find survivors of a Thai warship that sank.
The best home team in the Pac-12 over the last three years, Stanford’s only hiccup came in 2011 when it lost to No. 6 Oregon. The Cardinal are 14-0 over the last two seasons at home including wins over No. 2 Oregon and No. 9 UCLA last season and No. 1 Oregon and No. 2 USC in 2012. The first of three teams with a 20-1 record at home since 2011, South Carolina’s only home loss came three years ago when it got nipped by unranked Auburn 16-13. The last time the Ducks lost more than one home game in a season was in 2007, when they fell to both unranked Oregon State and No. 6 Cal. The last of the four FBS teams with a 19-2 record at home since 2011, Clemson’s most recent home loss came in 2013 when it was ranked No. 3 and got drilled by No. 5 Florida State.

Still, LSU rushed for 63 yards on 27 carries in the SEC opener as the offensive line struggled to create holes. LSU also realized it had to use different running plays after the season opener, when the Tigers mostly utilized inside zone because of UCLA's pressure. They have added more sweeps, counters and pre-snap motions.
Almost lost quite a few, the Auburn game in 2005 when their kicker missed five field goals comes to mind as well. Obviously, LSU fell to Tennessee in 2005 but that was a Monday night. So I guess the 2002 Alabama game (31-0) was the last time.
While it’s possible, the defense has to play a lot better than it showed vs. Oregon and in the winning effort vs. Minnesota in the opener. Ohio Stadium hasn’t seen too many losses from the Ohio State football team. This post was originally published on July 25, 2019, but football season is upon us, which means Saturday nights in Death Valley are returning. Although, if we're honest, there's one thing we want to see. A home-and-home series with the Clemson Tigers to see which team's stadium truly earns the nickname "Death Valley."
This was important because each school was much closer geographically and saw football as their most important sport. West Coast game between Rutgers and USC on a Saturday morning? In a duel between future top-10 NFL draft picks in Joe Burrow[/autotag] and Tua Tagovailoa, the passers combined for more than 800 yards and seven passing touchdowns.

It's averaging 2.9 yards per carry, and it has faced three non-conference teams. The most difficult portion of the Southeastern Conference schedule hasn’t started. You have to say that Boise State has a great home record! Only lost two games in that span by last-second missed field-goal attempts.
Georgia: 1995
Jimbo Fisher's Texas A&M Aggies and the Georgia Bulldogs are always a strong choice for a primetime night game in SEC Country. Then, of course, there's any visit from former LSU coach Nick Saban and his Alabama Crimson Tide. Some school's results have been altered by retroactive NCAA penalties.

Before this you’d have to go back to 1979 against Virginia (not counting a 27-0 loss to UF in Jacksonville in 1984). Scoring is so sky-high in college football nowadays that shutouts are rare. The last time LSU beat Alabama was on November 5, 2011, when the Tigers were the No. 1 team in the country.
