Under your current head coach?

Ole Miss
Most important win: 2012 41-17 vs #25 Miss. State. State came into Oxford at 8-3 looking for their 4th straight egg bowl win. Ole Miss was 5-6, needing a victory to quench their 2 year bowl drought. Dr. Bo fed Moncrief, won the egg, went bowling and then hauled in a top 5 recruiting class. I had trouble choosing this over Alabama, but this game was the foundation that 2014 Bama was built on.

Worst loss: 2013 17-10 OT @Miss State. Ole Miss came into Starkvegas at 7-4 looking to lock up the golden egg, a national ranking, and a quality bowl game. State was struggling at 5-6 and desperately needed a win to go bowling. Both teams played like shite to overtime. Dak back from injury scored the go ahead in OT. Bo Wallace fumbled his chance into the endzone. Bullies use the esteem boost and bowl practices to help themselves to a monumental 2014. Hugh Freeze had Mullen under his boot, and let him escape. Runner up: Peach Bowl blowout

For Bama under Saban it's hard to determine which win was most important, but the most devastating loss has to be 2013 Iron Bowl.

If you're talking all time I think Alabama's most important win was the 1925 Rose Bowl, because that's what put the program on the map. The most devastating loss was either 1972 Iron Bowl, 1973 Sugar Bowl, or 2013 Iron Bowl.

In terms of the most disappointing loss for me personally, I'd say it was probably 2003 Tennessee, 2010 Iron Bowl, or 2013 Iron Bowl.

I think that the Ole Miss win over Texas was your most important win

It was your 1st big win over error a name brand opponent and that game did more than anything to change the perception of your program

LSU last season was pretty rough, just because of how big of a hole our special teams put us into early on that made it absolutely impossible to make the game competitive.

Most important thus far? May have been last night against USCe. Broke a 22 game SEC road losing streak and it's the first time they've beat an SEC team not named Vandy in consecutive seasons since the 90s. It was one a lot of folks didn't have as a win on the schedule because of it's road status. Hopefully we see some more important wins this season.

Loss: For me, it's The Auburn kick-6 game. It cost Bama the chance to play for a 3rd straight championship.

Win: The victory over Tebow and Florida in the SEC Championship Game. It was the hump Bama needed to get over to start playing for National Championships again.
