Quite a few. Add the UGA "Blackout" game and probably several more.

The game tomorrow really has the feel of the Arkansas games a few years ago. Lots of similarities

No doubt. The most important game we've played under Saban was Clemson 2008.

Good point. Early in the season, one team experiencing new success, etc.

No, Alabama already had two losses and was only playing role of spoiler. The game this weekend is much bigger because it has SEC and BCS implications for both teams, not just one.

It was important but doesn't really meet the "hype" factor.

The hype was crazy though. Rememeber all the Cam stuff. I do see your point.

Disagree. A chance at beating Cam and ruining Aubies perfect season will always bigger in my mind.

Agree. It started the current run. That game sent a message.

It would have been nice, no doubt. I just don't think it was as big as tomorrow's game since both teams have so much on the line and it has that revenge factor for Alabama.

In hindsight. At the time, it wasn't really a huge buildup.

The 2011 SEC Championship Game was pretty big for them.

Oh wait . . .

Any additional loss in 09, 11 and 12 would have put them out of the NC game so I would say all of them played in 09, 11 & 12 were just as big as tomorrow's game.

Agree to disagree. I would have rather beaten Auburn in 2010 than win a natty this year.
