Yeah, I was at the State game too. It wasn't a blowout, but it wasn't exactly a nail-biter either. They were clearly the better team, and they went on to beat Florida State and a pretty good BC team over the next few weeks.
Later in the year, with Armanti at QB and State quitting on a lame-duck coach... now that might have been a different story.
If you could "have one back"?

A win over Tennessee, especially in Knoxville so early in our FBS transition, would have really propelled our program forward onto the national stage...so Tennessee.

Tennessee without a doubt. Beating them on a national stage in prime time to open last year would have taken our program to another level.
The Auburn game is second for me.
The Montana game is up there too but it would have put us in a position we'd been in 3 of the previous 4 seasons.
