7. Oregon 2010

I'm going something like that. Obviously the BCS game was huge in the sense that we won, but for drama and joy I have to go with the other 6.
Its like people forgot that there was plenty of drama in the championship game. From Oregon winning right up until halftime. Then Oregon tying the game with a TD and two point conversion after the ref tackled our LB and let their WR convert on 4th down. Dyer rolling over a tackle and running into FG range under two minutes in the game. Game winning FG.

I remember thinking we looked like a much better and more athletic team than Oregon and just played the sloppiest offensive game of the season (at least since halftime of the Clemson game). it was kinda surreal to me that the game was tied late just looking at how our defensive line ate their offense.



Didn't Cam hurt his back at some point during the game? And there was tons of slipping on both sides.

I remember Cam fumbled late which was a rarity. Might’ve been the only lost fumble that season.

Cam was somewhat pedestrian that game.

Cam got hurt early in the 3rd Quarter in that game. People either don’t know or don’t remember.

I immediately started writing a post about 09 WVU game, but realized it wasn't apart of this decade and got sad that I'm old.

YEs, Cam did hurt his back on a hit in the 3rd qtr.

And there was a lot of slipping, as I was there watching, and it was indoors, and there seemed to be moisture and it felt humid to me on their grass field.

Prayer Jordan Hare was a great ending but the game itself was not on my top 10. We blew a 20pt lead with about 10min left in the 4th qtr. it shouldn’t have been close.

I would replace it with 2017 UGa game where we curb stomped them when they were #1 and feeling all high and mighty. For those that live in Ga, that was much better than the tip pass that never should have been needed.

I bought 5 tickets for $5 post rainout* walked in for the kickoff. Awesome game. I think this might be the game Hail spilled like 3 jack and cokes on the folks in front of us.

I was 8 outta 10, too. Missed 2017 iron bowl and BCS title (couldn’t get / afford tickets). Been a good decade though, overall, for sure

They waited too late to replace the turf and combine that with having grass indoors compounded the clusterfrick. It was a disaster. Worst playing surface I’ve ever witnessed

I was at 6 of 10, would have been at 7 except for the military.

I put Camback as #1. That was truly remarkable and to watch McElroy's stupid parents and sister dance in the stands for the first half, only to follow it up by total domination and concussing their off-spring by T-Bell, that was pretty great.

Yep

As far as a purely competitive, entertaining game, that 2013 A&M game is probably in the top 2-3.
