Disclaimer: The margin of victory for the game in question must be within 1 score

For me:

2010: Oklahoma State 38, Texas A&M 35 (would have been Big 12 champions)
2011: Oklahoma State 41 Stanford 38 (OT) (Stanford should have won that game. This would put to rest any commentary that Oklahoma State had a chance vs. LSU or Alabama that season)
2012: LSU 24, Texas A&M 19 (I didn't choose Florida because the momentum from going from 0-1 to 12-1 would have propelled us to #2 in the BCS)
2013: Missouri 28, Texas A&M 21 (would have prevented them from winning the East)
2014: Missouri 34, Texas A&M 27 (would have prevented them from winning the East)
2015: Louisville 27, Texas A&M 21 (would have halted the rise of Lamar Jackson)
2016: Ole Miss 29, Texas A&M 28 (I didn't pick Mississippi State because we weren't going to win that game after Knight got hurt)
2017: Texas A&M 50, Arkansas 43 (OT) (I would have preferred Sumlin lose to Bert to get him justifiably fired much sooner)
2018: Clemson 28, Texas A&M 26 (would have resulted in the first undefeated home season since 1999)
2019: Georgia 19, Texas A&M 13 (refs completely fricked us in Athens)

Edit: Nicholls was a 10-point win in 2017 so I can't use that one.

Edit 2: For Auburn and LSU fans, you can change the outcome of any 1-score game even if it didn't involve your team from the 2010 (Auburn) and 2019 (LSU) seasons respectively.

Edit 3: I'm choosing not to change the result of an A&M game for the 2011 season, see above

I'm limiting my choices to close games we could have won

2010: UNC (bowl game)
2011: Kentucky
2012: South Carolina
2013: Vanderbilt
2014: Florida
2015: Alabama or Oklahoma
2016: Vanderbilt- would have gone to Sugar Bowl. However, losing that game was a double-edged sword, because it helped put Butch in trouble for the first time.
2017: I guess Kentucky
2018: South Carolina
2019: BYU

You should be embarrassed, but not bring it to everyone's attention.

Here's a game result not involving my team that I would have changed in the last 10 seasons.

2012: Notre Dame 29, Pittsburgh 23

I would have changed it so that Notre Dame was called for a 15-yard penalty in the second overtime for having two players wearing jersey number 9 on the tying field goal which wasn't called. Pittsburgh should have won that game, ending any of the Notre Dame bullshite and possibly resulting in an Alabama/Florida or Alabama/Oregon National Title Game.

Nah. You try that kick 100 times I bet its either simply missed or made 99.

2010: Arkansas. We were 10-1 going into that game and ranked #6.

2011: Bama NCG. Obvious answer.

2012: Bama. Would've finished the regular season 11-1 and could've possibly played for a National Championship.

2013: Georgia. Was a great game but couldn't pull out the W at Athens.

2014: Notre Dame. Was a pretty bad season all around for us, but winning the bowl game would've ended us on a positive note.

2015: Bama. Undefeated going into the Bama game and after that we just fell apart, losing 3 in a row.

2016: Wisconsin. Starting off the season with a L isn't fun at all. Especially since we had a pretty big streak of non conference wins.

2017: Troy. LSU should never lose to a school like Troy...

2018: A&M. Already one of the best games in CFB history. Winning it would've made it a lot better.

Disagree. Win that game, Miles probably doesn't get fired after Auburn (because of yet another clock management gaffe) and might still be coaching. Which means no NC in 2019.

It's easily Florida that year for me.

Since you went 15-0 in 2019, you now have the option of changing a 1-score result of any game, even those LSU was not involved in, last season.

Auburn fans, likewise for the 2010 season.

Edit: You can't use 2011 Alabama or 2015 Alabama. The conditions of the thread specify that the game had to be within 1 score. You're welcome to use any game involving any team for the 2011 season that was within 1-score.

2011: Auburn
2013: Tennessee

These two stand out more than any of our games the past 10 years.

Neither of these choices are valid if you read the original post again. The 2017 Iron Bowl was a 13-point margin, not 1 score. The 2018 Clemson game was a 28-point margin, again, not 1 score.

If you have to use the results of games not involving your team to comply with the stipulations of the topic, than do so.

As a reminder.

If you choose a game to change, the original final score of that game must be within a margin of 1-8 points.
