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.

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

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.

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

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.

Tua to Smith was just so epic, that its hard not to say that one, but honestly they've all been special in their own right.

I was not old enough to remember it, but the '93 Sugar Bowl will always hold a special place in my heart because the VHS tape we had of the game got me through some very dark times as a fan.

This is mine as well. And, with all due respect to Jalen, if Alabama has Coker in 2016, they beat Clemson again..... Probably by a couple scores.

Hmmm........favorite National Title? If I were a Georgia, Auburn or Texas fan this would be easy. But, being a Bama fan not so much.

For me it's the 2009 BCS Championship game because Bama had never beaten UT until that game, the beautiful Rose Bowl setting, it capped a perfect/undefeated season, and I was there.
