1990's, 2000's, and 2010's. Pick 1 from each decade. Like I said, your favorite games they were involved in. You MUST include one game they lost.
I'll start.
Alabama
1999: 40-39 win vs Florida in the Swamp.
2002: 27-25 loss to Georgia in Bryant-Denny.
2012: 32-28 win over Georgia in the SECCG.
I'll start.

2013 Iron Bowl
2010 Iron Bowl
2013 DSOR
2010 National Championship
2006 vs Florida (Tre Smith flipping in the endzone after recovering blocked punt)
2010 vs Clemson
I could probably go on and on.
ETA: I didnt read the rules and I'm not changing my list. Your rules are stupid.

Shouldn't you wait until the 2010s are over before you decide?
1980s: Earthquake Game
1990s: 1993 Alabama Game
2000s: Bluegrasss Miracle
For the loss: The very next week 31-0 to Alabama in 2002. Didn't matter. Bama was on probation, and we got to steal their Western Division title.

I sat here and tried and can't do a best I had to do 5 each decade. In no particular order
1990s
1999 SEC Championship Game
1993 Sugar Bowl
1999 Iron Bowl
1994 VS Georgia (My first Bama game, I was 7)
1999 VS Florida (First away game I ever attended)
2000s
2001 Iron Bowl (Probably my favorite Bama game,
I will explain why below)
2002 Tennessee (Bama upset UT the night after I
scored the first TD of my high school career)
2005 South Carolina (Everybody will say 2005 UF
but this game was just as dominant without
Prothro getting hurt)
2007 vs Arkansas (First big game as a Bama
student, BDS was electric)
2008 vs LSU (First trip to Baton Rouge/First big
college road trip, game was an instant classic)
2009 SEC Championship (Dominant performance in
all three phases)
2010's
2013 BCS Title (Beating Notre Dame what else can
be said?)
2011 Cap One Bowl (Still fun to just watch, It
begins to get sad how many MSU players get hurt)
2013 vs Texas A/M (Closest real football to Xbox
I've ever seen, So many big plays on both sides)
2012 SEC Champ (Before the 13 ATM game, this was
the same way. Another instant classic)
2012 Iron Bowl (Least competitive I've seen
either team in the Iron Bowl, first time I've
seen a team quit)
Why the 2001 Iron Bowl is my favorite Bama game. I had typed out the entire story but it was very long and depressing. Basically my father had a stroke after open heart surgery a few weeks before the game. He was barely conscious when the game was played and the Doctors thought there was a good chance he wouldn't make it. They let me (I was 14) sit in the ICU unit and watch the whole game with him. Alabama happened to win, and one of our hometown guys a family friend was an Alabama walk on got to actually play in the game. Weeks later he visited Dad in the hospital. Anyway after that my dad's condition improved somewhat. Despite their predictions he probably would not live, he did end up making it through. Despite 13 years of fits and starts, complications etc my Dad is still alive (still bitching at the refs haha). In fact he got to see me (and my sister this spring) graduate from Alabama. And now he gets to bitch at the refs at the games I coach.

Going back 30 years, the first game where I started to follow Tennessee football as my family had just moved to TN was the 1986 Sugar Bowl victory over #2 Miami. 35-7 Vols victory.
I would have to say the loss in 1990 against #1 Notre Dame in Knoxville was a great game. Rocket Ishmail had been held to -1 yards on five carries before he scores from about 45 yards out on the game winner in the fourth quarter. ND wins 34-29.
My first Alabama game was the 1990 debacle. This is where I learned to hate Alabama with every fiber in my body. 9-6 Tide.
In 1991, UT trailed #5 Notre Dame 31-7 in South Bend only to come back and win 35-34 in the Miracle at South Bend.
I was a UT student in attendance for the 1995 Alabame game in Legion Field as Peyton led the Vols to a 41-14 victory to end an 0-8-1 streak against the Tide.
I was in Row 1 of the South Endzone for the 1998 overtime victory over Florida. The first football game I attended with my future wife. Can't believe she stuck around after that one.
2003 road win against #6 Miami
2005, the Rally in the Valley as UT stuns #3 LSU by overcoming a 24-7 fourth quarter deficit
There are a lot of other great games but I was in attendance for these and I think you have to be there for it to be a favorite game.
I can't remember the last six years due to heavy drinking in the fall on Saturdays.

1990's: Ricky suttons sack of Casey Weldon in 1990 against fsu. Almost like the Bama kick six this past year. Fsu was trying to convert a short 4th down to set up the game winning fg on the AU 38. Instead AU got the greatest sack in AU history where FSU lost almost 30 yards and we kicked the game winner in a tie game instead.
2000: Fourth down conversion against UGA by Brandon cox in 2006 in athens that was fumbled then recovered in the emdzone setting up the game winner at the one.
By the way, I did my three favorite plays. For three favorite games, it is the same except my favorite game of last decade was the 2006 lsu game.
2010s: There goes Davis!!

2011: Sugar Bowl loss to OSU. Hated the ending, but the comeback was fun, and it was cool being on the big stage.
2007: 3 OT win over #1 LSU
1999: 28-24 win over #3 Tennessee. Some revenge from the heart-breaker the previous year.
ETA: Just saw that I'm supposed to include a loss. Updated.
