Most Impressive Comeback Under Saban?

There have been some gutsy comebacks in the Saban era, which one has been the most impressive?
2016 @ OM? 2014 Iron Bowl? 2014 @ LSU? 2013 @ TAMU? 2012 SECG? 2012 @ LSU? 2010 @ Arkansas? 2009 Iron Bowl?
Which ones am I missing?
I think that the Death Valley comebacks were the most intense, but they were one possession games at the time of the comebacks.
The 2010 Arkansas game was wild, and an improbable comeback. Very underrated game. I still can't believe we won that one.
What say you guys?

The best one is when he told Texas to shove it and signed an extension.
The UGA championship game might be my favorite.

Texas A&M 2013
A game that in many programs could have gotten out of hand. Saban's team put their nose to the grindstone and almost put it out of reach of Aggie and Johnny by the end.

'12 SECCG. Down 21-10 against one of the best teams in the country.

Those are all great, but I prefer the games where we take the lead early and pull away.
I'm too old for this come from behind shite!

Could be recency bias but I think 2016 OM is the best overall comeback with 2012 LSU being the best comeback moment.

My "on this day" fb reminder came up for this game a couple days back... i did not hit the share button. I may have cringed a bit, then ultimately laughed.

Alabama historically has never been a come from behind team. The 21 point comeback against Ole Miss ties the largest in school history, so I'll say that. The others barely qualify as comebacks because the deficit faced was so small.

2010 Arkansas and 2014 LSU were probably the 2 most improbable. That late 1st half INT in the end zone against Arkansas was huge, and we probably lose without it. We were dead to rights in 2014 against LSU.
2012 UGA, and 2016 Ole Miss were probably the most impressive. UGA because of the stage and the way in which we won, Ole Miss because it was lead by a true freshman QB making his first start on the road.

Dramatic comebacks, none the less.

The Aggie game was the best for me. It showed how great this coaching staff really was. They pretty much gave in and said we can't stop them so we will just out score them.

2016 Ole Miss game.
Down by 21, 2 game losing streak to them, it's AT Ole Miss, Ole Miss is really good, we have a true freshman QB starting and we come from behind and win. That's the best one I think

2016. Ole Miss. 24-3 deficit nearing half. True Freshman QB had just about had his head taken off. Losing to a team that had beaten us two years in a row. Add that up and that was a whole bunch of adversity to overcome.

Not going to lie, I had a bad feeling about things after Hurts got smashed. Really just felt bad for him. Amazing how he remained composed.
