My favorite one was 1985. That was the first time I went to a UGA game. We had great seats. I remember being a kid and shocked at how hard the college kids were partying. My Dad's friend was in Phi Delta Theta so we went by the house before the game. Georgia won 35-21. 2nd favorite was 1986. The year James Jackson put the ball down on the field to end the game. Technically it was a fumble and SC ran it back to win the game. For some reason the refs blew the whistle. From recent memory, the Grayson Lambert completion record game was awesome. For one brief shining moment we thought we were heading for greatness(only to have it shattered later in the season).

The other one someone mentioned - the David Pollak strip/interception TD. That game really set the stage for the season.

Back then, a fumble couldn't be advanced if it occurred behind the LOS for some reason. It was blown dead immediately upon recovery. Since the clock had run out, the game was over.
About 20 years later, I met James Jackson; had a co-worker who was his cousin. The co-worker was a big FSU guy, but he knew I am a big UGA fan, so he introduced us. The first thing I did was ask him about that play. Jackson claimed that he knew the ball couldn't be advanced. I think he was bullshitting me, but I laughed and went along with him.
