Greatest ending to a college football game? 2013 Iron bowl or last years natty?

Kick six was during one of the biggest rivalries in all the land. Everything on the line for both teams. The underdog versus the giant. Slugfest all the way to the end.
One second left, game tied, and the underdog takes a FG to the house untouched down the sidelines in front of their home crowd. The whole world cheered except for Bama fans and maybe a few Dawgs. Epic fricking ending.
Auburn goes on to lose the National Championship in heartbreaking fashion. I add this in there because I do believe it takes away a tit bit from the kick six greatness. And if any Auburn fans tells you they don’t think about that natty after remembering the kick six, they are lying.
Then you have last years National Championship. UGA trying to dethrone the king and claim their spot as the new dominant program in College football. Bama goes down 13-0 at the half. Nick makes one of the greatest coaching decisions ever made. Goes with a true freshman Hawaiian at QB.
He leads us all the way back for a game winning FG and we miss. Head to OT. Then down three dead in the water on 2nd and 26 throws a game winning walk off rope to win it ALL.
Both games are EPIC no doubt about it, (top two finishes of all time I believe) and before you let your Bama hate decide for you just think, which game would you rather your team win?

Kick 6 may be second only to Cal/Stanford “The Play.” Kick 6 will forever be a top 3 finish in college football.

Last year’s nattie was literally the most important play in college football history

Let’s see, one of the rarest ways to score a touchdown going the full length of the field with no time left on the clock, in the biggest rivalry in college football, to decide the SEC championship (lol Missouri), and who would play for the national championship, where the losing team was going for a 3 peat, and the winning team went winless in the conference the prior season, plus all the drama of having 1 second put back on the clock at the behest of the greatest college football coach ever

Freshman completes long pass in overtime to wide open receiver on busted coverage to win the national championship

This must be one of those "in my lifetime threads"
Kick six could go in there but also
Cal-Stanford 1982
Flutie Hail Mary
Kordell Stewart to westbrook
1980 Holiday Bowl (BYU was down 45-25 with 2 minutes left and won on hail mary)
1979 Cotton Bowl (Notre Dame trailed 34-12 with 6 minutes to play and won on a last play Montana pass to Kris Haynes after Montana had left the game earlier suffering from hypothermia)
Harvard Yale 1969

Last year’s NC game was one of the greatest games I’ve ever seen.
The 2013 Iron Bowl is, objectively, arguably the greatest college football game ever played.

Well it all depends on one’s perspective. Hated kick six, loved 2nd and 26. For any Bama hater, they are going to pick the kick six. It’s really not complicated.
