I have to agree this was #2 as Texas USC was mega awesome. But being a Tiger fan was very difficult in the aftermath of the NCG debacle. Was LSU really that good, undefeated in 2011, yet they lost to their most hated rival, a team they had beaten in Alabama, coached by their ex-coach in the biggest game of the season. If you look back in history, LSU has been shut out in the Sugar bowl more than any other team. Alabama is not unbeatable as we have seen recently. I believe this year in Baton Rouge it will LSU's time to shine.

Texas vs USC
Oklahoma vs Boise
2012 SECCG (Even though it had a shitty ending it was still an amazing game)
West Virginia vs Pitt
App State vs Michigan
2013 Alabama vs Auburn
2103 Georgia vs LSU

Also a couple personal favorites of mine Georgia vs Auburn (Blackout) and Georgia vs Florida (2007)

Won't be a choice many would pick but the Arkansas Ole Miss 7 OT game. Just because nobody had seen that many OT yet.

The Alabama Michigan Orange Bowl

The hidden gem I believe though is Fresno USC it was a game nobody really saw coming

I think Fresno not backing down is what made it more impressive as they needed Bush to win it. Nobody in their right mind thought Fresno would keep playing like that. Pinengar thought he was Joe Montana.

UNC/Miami. Chad Scott

Oregon/Stanford 2013

KSU vs OU. Darren Sproles went ham

Boise vs OU

Tex vs USC

Miami/FSU. Pick any year

Pitt vs WVU 2007

Any year since 2004 vs UT. Last year was the sweetest watching their dreams crash.

Even though Oregon lost, the 2012 game with Stanford was a gitty game.

Wisconsin Oregon is a good one too. Russell tried spiking the ball under 2 seconds right after the rule was put in that you can't anymore iirc
