I don't think Auburn 07 can be considered in the same class as Florida 07. Auburn 07's ending was spectacular but honestly the entire game just wasn't as ridiculously awesome as the Florida game.

Yea, I too am an old timer, and I totally agree. That Notre dame game, Bert Jones - it was a lifetime memory.

88 Auburn
79 USC
97 UF

I know it's hard to swallow that the Best game ever in Tiger Stadium was a loss, but hands down it's '79 USC game. That said, here goes:

1. '79 vs USC
2. '07 vs FLA
3. '71 vs. ND

I have only been to three games in Tiger Stadium. Two of them were blowout victories over Miss. St.

The other (my first) was the Earthquake Game against Auburn in 1988. I was a teenager and it was unbelievable. The reason that the crowd was so loud at the end is because the game was so frustrating. You had so much pent up emotion and it just exploded when Hodson threw that pass to Fuller on 4th down.

Amazing.

2004 Oregon State

Probably one of the most entertaining games ever. Heavy rain with a delay. Multiple fans running on the field including the famous streaker. Then the beaver Alex Serna missing the extra point in overtime.

UGA 03 was great for the "L-S-U" full on chant after UGA tied the game on the OMG screen pass. TS potential realized.
