Offensive play...1978, the great James Wilder's (The Sikeston Train) takes a Nubber LB and THROWS HIM out-of-the-way with one-hand while scoring on 7 yd. TD run. On a darn cold November day in Lincoln, Mizzou beats the Children of the Corn.

Defensive play...1990, the Fifth Down Game v. Colorado. Mizzou's goal-line stand on the TWO YARD LINE for FIVE DOWNS against the 1990 National Champions. Just checked, Charles Johnson still has not scored. Absolute positive bullshite!



And you think the Saints got screwed by the refs??? The refs GAVE Colorado an extra down PLUS a TD when Johnson was stopped short on their FIFTH damn try.

Cynically it's Justin Tucker's field goal in 2011.

Without that, we still have Mike Sherman in 2012 and Johnny Manziel never starts at quarterback.

That Alabama player “Teague” that chased down the Miami player and stripped the ball is still in my memories. I dislike Miami more than Bama so that’s part of it.

I just remember when it happened I couldn’t believe it. Good one to choose.

There's quite a few for LSU.

Cannon's punt return is the one that comes up traditionally. Hodson to Fuller in the Earthquake Game, Bluegrass Miracle also rate right up there.

Just to be different, I would nominate Justin Vincent's run against Oklahoma in the 2003 Sugar Bowl.

For most of my life, LSU had been a "I hope we look good" school. Our great moments have been games where we lost, but weren't embarrassed. LSU-USC in '79, Orange Bowl vs Nebraska in 83, the Sugar Bowls vs Nebraska in the 80's. Heroic in defeat.

We were still a bit in shock going into the Sugar vs OU, did we really deserve it? Remember, no SEC dominance back then. We came into that game just hoping we'd not be embarrassed, in the back of most fans' minds.

First play from scrimmage Vincent rips off a 64 yd run, and LSU forever changed their point of view.
