that's actually a really good topic that could use its own thread. They probably would get the nod though if I had to guess
2001 Tennessee, 2005 LSU, 2012 Florida would probably be the top 3. I'm sure I'm missing one somewhere (2006 Auburn had a good record but I never really considered them in the same level as those three).
2001 Tennessee/Florida was arguably the best game in SEC history from start to finish considering they were probably the second and third best teams in the country, how well played it was from start to finish, and the ending. Those were two ridiculously loaded teams.

Yeah I considered 06 AU as well. We may not remember them as being good becuase we had our way with them but they got as high as #2 that season, ended up beating a #2 ranked and eventual national champ florida, and if they had beaten us it's possible that they're playing for a NC berth against UF in the SECCG.
But yeah the others you mentioned are up there. 2004 LSU was pretty good, aside from the beatdown we administered their 2 other losses that year were by 1 to national champ auburn and by 5 in the bowl game on a freak hail mary. 09 Tech would have made a case if not for their collapse down the stretch.
they don't belong at the top of the list, but I think 02 alabama is pretty underrated, maybe due to their postseason ban. Their 3 losses were to us by 2, @#2 Oklahoma by 10, and by 10 to auburn. 14 Clemson was solid other than us beating them down, other losses were in OT to #1 FSU and a head scratcher to tech.
