Favorite National Title Game

For me it's 2015 vs. Clemson. That was one of the most enjoyable football games to watch in my memory. Alabama was in control for most of the game, but had to play their best game of the season, leaving everything on the field to hold Clemson off.
Classic plays like the onside kick and Drake kick return seal the deal.

The '92 thumping of Da U will always have a special place in my heart.
Of the Saban years, 2012's Notre Dame beatdown in the Orange Bowl because I was there.

It's hard to pick, but I must say that this year's was pretty dman good.

That I can remember in my lifetime (53 years), easily 1992.
Of the Saban titles, 2009 is so very special because it was the first but in terms of pure enjoyment it has to be last year. Utterly demolishing tOSU was pure joy to watch.

I really enjoyed the 2009 game because Bama was finally back and 9 year old me had not really appreciated the 92 game like I should have back when I watched it. However I can pick things from all of the Saban era titles that give each an argument for being the best one.

Im not sure Ill ever be at a watch party that mimics the energy and atmosphere of the 2nd half of the Georgia NCG. Nothing to lose and clawing back with just enough roadblocks to make you think it just wasnt our night. Then the final four plays (sack by Terrell Lewis, 50+ yard field goal, Georgia sack, and 2nd and 26) providing a final emotional roller coaster

2021 LSU easily. That gift is still paying.

The effect that 2011 had on CFB and the complete disrespect of LSU is unmatched by any other game. Favorite by far. LSU fans have still not recovered from 1/9 after 10 years. It's beautiful.

1978- The Goal Line Stand- One of the cleanest, hard-hittingest games you'll ever see between two legends both on the field and on the sidelines.
1992 was special. Don't EVER count out Alabama!
2009- Got the Texas monkey off our back and shut up an awful fanbase. But if only Colt....
2012- Easily one of the most fun NC's I've ever seen and was privileged enough to watch in person. Most of the Irish fans were conceding before kickoff and just happy to be there. Then we proceeded to stomp the shite out of them.
2018- The most entertaining natty I've ever seen and a classic for the ages.
2020- Arguably the best team to ever take the field and a juggernaut that would not be denied. Also some classy, memorable, lovable players on that squad: The Slim Reaper, Macsiah, Big Dickerson. Just a great bunch of guys.

What year in the future were you born? When does Nick retire?

Love em all but probably 2009. I was too young to remember 92. That 2009 team was just so damn special. They came back from 2008 on a mission to be undefeated and to beat Florida in the SEC CG.
I always liked how Saban compared that team to the 1980 US Mens Hockey team that had to beat Russia in the semis and then beat Finland? in the finals

That's the one that makes me hesitate to say 2009 is my favorite. I remember the hour leading up to that game. It seemed like it was a media lovefest with Notre Dame. There were Rudy commercials going, ESPN talking heads were giddy about ND, it just seemed to me like they were saying the king is back. When Bama walked by ND players in the tunnel I knew it was going to be a bloodbath.
Edit: LOL at the truthful Brian Kelly halftime interview.

It’s pretty cool to compare National Title Games. Lol. Roll Tide

Back in the day would be 92.
Canes were in the midst of a dynasty run having won it in 83, 87, 89, 91.
Majority of the media gave the Tide no chance.
With our defense perfectly executing brother Bill's game plan, it was a beautiful beatdown.
More recent 2011 or 18 is close for me.
Redeeming the regular season loss in dominate fashion, breaking corndog hearts, was gratifying.
2018 had ugly championship loss written all over it till Tua was inserted, thus breaking Dawg hearts.

I was born in '79, so it's '92 and '09.
I've felt spoiled like I'm playing with house money ever since.

Y'all. This was 2017. You aren't the only one that's referred to it this way. What am I missing? I know the game is played in the new year but I think that's been true for all of them.
We got our arse kicked in 2018.
I don't care for the "nail biters." For this reason I like the 92, 2011, 2012, and 2020 the best. 92 might have been the most impressive win because of one dimensional offense and elite defense. Barker had a terrible game. If you told me before hand his stats I would have said no way we win.
Like it or not, 2009 got a little interesting at the end. Our offense wasn't all that great that game. 2015 was probably entertaining as a disinterested spectator but that was heart attack city. 2017 had my favorite Alabama moment ever with 2nd and 26, but the first half of that game is unwatchable as a Bama fan.

This may sound weird, but my favorite is which ever one was the last one. I will rewatch highlights, etc, but don't go back and look at older ones very much.
The only one that might be little different was against UGA. Living in Georgia, it is truly a pleasure every time we beat UGA.
Other than that, i will always be down to watch the expert picks and analysts before the game so i can see people like David Pollack and Colin Cowherd look like idiots.
