I still think "the play" the week prior against UGA was better.

Yeah, if you don't count our last NC, then the one before that one was 5 years ago. Super tough stretch.

If not for the band that play is looooong forgotten.

Kick Six sent Auburn to the SEC Championship then the BCS Championship. The Play had no major implications whatsoever.

The Kick Six was the most embarrassing play for any Ala team I've ever seen. That's when i gave up on Bama and bonehead Saban, then the BLM BS, Voting rights, excuses for losing, and the list goes on and on put me over the edge. Malzahn could get inside his head better than most. The 2010 IB i thought at the time was the absolute worst until the Kick Six.
Freeze will own Saban most likely starting this year and send him to the retirement home. He's beat Shorty back to back years at OM and really had a third except for a questionable penalty on a TD late in the game.

Thank you for comparing me to the center of the universe.

Pretty sure "the play" never would have stood had there been instant replay back then. That one player's knee looks down before he pitches the ball back.
Stanford played one of the nicest pranks on the Monday after the game, printing out a fake Daily Californian that said the NCAA had overturned the play. And having side stories with Joe Kapp's reaction. It apparently fooled a good number of students.

I was at the game, about 18 rows up from where the trombone players was hammered. This was all pre-cellular -- whenwe left the game we really had no idea what the hell had happened. I vaguely remember celebrating with the others after we thought the tackle was made around midfield, and then all of a sudden the Cal fans went berserk. I don't think I saw the actual end of the play in real time.

Kick Six
Cal does not even follow Cal football. They do have good tech folks tho!

The Cal kick return. A LOT has to go into that. The Kick 6 was basically Bama being lazy. Dude ran down one sideline.

Just checked the CFP website and no such asterisk exists. Please tell me where this is located...

Who has the greatest college football play ever
When you have a game played over a century ago that is still talked about today, my guess is this would be up there for "the greatest". A historic Yankee team played at home against a lowly and dismissed team from the South. A single play altered college football forever. I was not alive at the time but knew many of the players later in life. In a game well fought but thought to end in a tie at best (the Yankee team was HEAVILY favored) but the Southern back announced it was time to score and went roughly 1/3 of the field to score on the next play. At least 3 Yankee defenders rose up to stop him but were discarded like dishrags. While the "Iron Men" may be the greatest team ever to play college football, this humble Southern school in a single play redefined football in the South.
It was called the greatest upset of the century by a historic paper this century. I am pretty sure it was in the Top 5 or 10 of all time by ESPN in the history of college football. When the 75th anniversary rolled around the Southern team offered to play a rematch on the Yankee's home field. The Yankee's declined.
