Is the kick six even the more exciting Auburn Football play from that month?

The bomb to beat UGA that year might have been even better



Had the Prayer in Jordan Hare been a walk off, I'd probably agree. While both were great moments, they were different. Had Louis, not caught that ball, Auburn loses (and I still swear that Aaron Murray's knee was down) so the mood in the stadium flips from despair to ecstasy in the blink of an eye. I love the replay from behind the play where you can see the reaction in the AU student section.

The Kick Six was slower in developing. First, we (Auburn fans) were worried that he missed the kick. Though I'd seen Davis back to field it, I don't think a lot of people (I didn't) realize the play was still live for a couple of seconds. If Davis does not score, we play OT, and I think AU probably wins anyway since they had the momentum and a far better kicker.

Still both were great moments.

Top 3 or 4 for me. Totally unexpected and improbable.

It was definitely the greatest play on Alabama dirt.

was an unreal event but ..no. Not even in CFB history

I think the Kenyan Drake KO return against Clemson is one of that most underrated important plays and greater than k6. Clemson had just scored and Bama was wearing down on D. And Drake, a really good player that struggled at times, was hurt at times, showed brilliance at times, sealed a national championship


Then there is 2nd 26




Jaylen Waddle's facemask punt return for a 89 yd td against LSU to put us(BAMA) back in the game was something words can't explain.
