I'll throw in that 2007 Arkansas game, as it was the first time in a long time, that Alabama showed enough metal to go out and win a game on the last play, as well as doing so as an underdog (that was McFadden/Felix Arkansas team).

I always thought the 2008 UGA/Bama Blackout game in Athens. The infamous "you wear black to a phuckin' funeral".

I felt the Clemson game got everyone talking, the UGA game let everyone know the talk was serious and not a fluke. The UF SECCG solidified the talk and confirmed the start of the dynasty.

That was the game that showed me Bama was back. It was the first time in a few years that we came from behind and won. I remember my dad telling me at the end that Nick Saban would win championships at Alabama.

I was at that game...it was a pretty great night...felt like something we could never do in the Shula era: snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
