2005 Miami game is the perfect answer to the OP.
They were in the Peach Bowl back before it was a big time bowl game. They had already slipped a few notches. IMO, their slide started when they lost at unranked UNC (I believe in 2004). Whatever aura of invincibility was left from the Butch Davis recruiting classes went away that night. They also lost at home to unranked GT in 2005 that knocked them out of the national title race.

You can make a very compelling argument that Nick Saban broke texas.
Since "Colt got hurt", they've gone 43-36, had 3 losing seasons, gone 2-2 in bowls, have not won or shared a single conference title, are on their third athletic director, second football coach, and second university president.
Before "Colt got hurt", they had 26 losses between 1998-2009. They have 36 since.

agreed. As another guy pointed out also, lsu absolutely drove the nail in the coffin that night for miami, but anyone that was paying attention could clearly tell miami was trending down. Coker was an awful coach, and the Davis recruits were finally gone.
someone mentioned colorado beating nebraska in 01.... thats a good call.
