Dareus sacking McCoy and putting his helmet in McCoy's shoulder.
Rocky Block
AJ to Cooper in SECCG
Yeldon Screen
Onside kick. In a vacuum, Drake's return is a better play. But with everything surrounding the onside kick, it was more important to the win, and Saban having the balls to call it ups it's value as well.
Top 5 favorite plays:
Drake go route on first play from scrimmage - Florida '14
Lacy's TD run from the 9 yd line in 3rd Quarter of 2012 SECCG
Lacy's 1st touchdown against ND in the Title game
Griffith's 50 harder against AU. Simply because he kicked it so hard it would have been good from 70 after getting pissed when he saw Gus had sent out a returner.
Tied for fifth, Griffith's 57 yd fg, Richardson's run against Arky as a freshman where he bounced off the entire defense, and Yeldon's superman impression against Mizzou.
*reserve the right to change list at any time upon remembrance of other plays.

Rashad's interception in the end zone in OT against LSU in 2009.
Blake to Cooper against Auburn in 2014.
J Harris forced fumble on the goal line against LSU in 2013.
Just a few that come to mind for at least honorable mention.
The Rashad Johnson play was in 2008.
And Tana Patrick forced that fumble on the goal line.
Mine are:
In terms of importance
1. Yeldon Screen Pass
2. Rocky Block
3. Drake Kickoff Return
4. McCarron to Coop SECCG
5. Mcelroy to Upchurch
In terms of actual impressiveness
1. Julio outrunning the entire LSU defense in 2009
2. Eddie Lacy catch and double spin move into the end zone against ND
3. 99 yard TD pass McCarron to Cooper
4. Ashawn hopping over the center to block xp against LSU
5. Clinton-Dix ridiculous interception against ND.

The NCAA said that game didn't happen. I know I watched it like everyone else. But the NCAA supersedes what my eyes tells me is real.

So many great selections in this thread. I think yall have touched on all of them. Probably a few more key defensive plays that warrant mentioning, considering Bama's dominance on defense over the years.
But an important stop on 3rd down to kill a drive will get forgotten in the grand scheme of things.

My personal favorite from 2015 was the Coker scramble/rocket TD to Stewart in Jordan-Hare.
I also loved Coke completely destroying Debo Jones near the goal line vs. LSU.

That last fg block by Cody will always be number 1 to me.
Yeldon's screen pass was the closest to that feeling ever since.

The final drive of the LSU game in 2014.
After the fumble, I had basically conceded the loss. I mean I thought we were legitimately done for the game. I was sad, my wife said - maybe they will come back and I was like - no honey, it's over.
And then magic happened. I still can't believe it.

The Ragland interception against A&M comes to mind

Top 5 Significant Plays
1. Anders sack/fumble against Texas. People forget how nervous we all were at that point of the game. It won the first title and avoided a terrible loss and subsequent doubt.
2. TJ Yeldon first down run vs UGA at midfield (prior to AJ to Coop). That won the game. Without it, we lose and UGA wins the national title.
3. Drake KO Return
4. The Yeldon screen pass @ LSU
5. Oklahoma State wide right vs Iowa State

#5: McElroy rollout TD pass to Upchurch vs Auburn 2009
That whole drive leading up to that play was masterful.
Also, this list could easily be a top 20.
Then you have plays like this one below. While the play itself isn't that memorable, the aftermath of it and the picture it provided perfectly captured what it's like when playing against a Saban led team that's clicking on all cylinders.
