I say yes.

I would still go with the pick six from Dareus against Texas, if not the hit against McCoy that knocked him out of the game. Still as this one is fresh on my mind, I can't think of a bigger throw.

I said it was 5 seconds after it happened.

Ive always said the Kick was #1 but this surpassed it by a mile IMO.

Still think Clemson win in 2015 was a better coaching job with more improbable plays to win though this was awesome.

Drakes return is up there too.

Top 10
As was the onside kick vs Clemson...and KD’s kickoff return.

Considering the situation, I would probably say yes. There have been others in recent memory like Rocky Block, Dareus breaking McCoy, Yeldon's TD against LSU, and Drake's KO return against Clemson, but given that we had just eaten a 16 yard loss in OT after watching their kicker drill a 50 yard go ahead FG? Yeah, that was probably the best of the bunch.

All hail Seattle.
(in case you missed it. That is the name of the play in the playbook per Saban)

Someone might come up with something that changes my mind, but off the top of my head I can not think of anything else.
I can think of lots of good plays, the strip against Miami for example and a few others people have mentioned.
But it's overtime in the national championship game, we get sacked and it's 2nd and 26 and a true freshman backup who comes in for the 2nd half leads a comeback and finishes it when he throws a TD pass to win the game.
People would call it too over the top if you scripted it for a movie.

It's def. on up there on the mount rushmore.
The goal line stand against Penn State.
Teague running down and stripping the Miami WR.
The kick.
The onsides kick and kickoff return against Clemson in 2015.
And now Tua's throw.

In a big picture sense, I'd say no.

Nice list. I'd include the "Make a man miss" screen pass to Yeldon vs lsu.

Can’t think of how any other play could be bigger. OT walkoff TD for the National Championship.

The only one that could be bigger is the "Goal Line Stand"

It might not be the BEST single play, but yes, I think it was the BIGGEST single play. My dog thought I'd lost my mind when Smith caught that ball.
