Anthony Derrick INT when Auburn was at our 10 yardline. He ran it back for a TD and we shut them out 20-0

No doubt "The Hit" was epic.

But, the whole story around Sirr Parker overcoming all sorts of life shite, and having a tough college career where he had to be selfless for the team, all while raising his younger brother, made his final play in maroon and white worthy of legend. That play also won the conference championship over #2 K-State, so there's that.

If I had my way, Sirr Parker would get a statue next to E. King Gill outside Kyle. Who better represents the Spirit of Aggieland than a guy who raised himself by his bootstraps (while carrying his little brother) to overcome an impossible situation and become a champion.

That one play didn't just give Sirr a Big 12 championship win. It sealed his hard-fought and well-deserved victory over some serious life hardships that would defeat 99.99% of others in the same situation.

It was a life-winning play.

That's why they showed it at the end of his movie, They Call Me Sirr.



EDIT: I just can't believe some people are such haters that they down voted my first post about Sirr. What losers.

Not the most impactful...but the greatest individual effort...Condredge Holloway vs Georgia Tech in 1973.

The Artful Dodger

Holloway breaks 7 tackles on the way to the endzone in a 20-14 win.

Cant find the GIF, but up 29-14 in the 4th quarter in 2010 @ the Swamp.
Gamecocks looking for their first ever East title and a trip to Atlanta.
Needed a TD to basically put the nail in the coffin.

Marcus Lattimore with an 11 yard TD to make the score 35-14 and giving us the victory and a trip to Atlanta for the first and only time in our history.

Bo over the top. Kick 6 is close but maybe recency bias. #EmbraceDebate

Great plays, for sure. But...neither one yielded a National Title like Belue to Scott did. Without that play, we lose to Florida and we don't play ND for the title. Auburn and GT the following weeks were really just formalities, as neither were all that good in 1980.

Greatest play in Bama football history: 2nd and 26

Greatest non-play: Teague's strip of Thomas (it was a momentum killer, but it was called back for an offsides penalty)

Runners-up:
Goal line stand in '79 Sugar Bowl
Drake's Kickoff Return
Griffith's Onside Kick
Screen pass to Yeldon in Death Valley
AJ to Coop in the 2012 SECCG
Langham's Pick 6 in the 1992 SECCG
Rocky Block
Cody-5
Hurts game-winning dash to the endzone in the 2018 SECCG
The Kick
The Kick II
The Run in the Mud
Wrong Way Bo

I would contend that the play that re-ignited the post-Bear Bama...would be Antonio Langham's pick-6 of Shane Matthews in the 1992 SEC Championship game.

Florida had scored two TDs in the 4th quarter to tie the game up, and had momentum. Langham stepped in front of the out pass and ran it all the way back. That was it...that play cemented their undefeated season, conference championship and was a springboard to the NC over Miami.

Langham's INT

That is pretty much it folks. For sheer enjoyment factor I'd give an honorable mention to: Jones to Birminham to Atlanta, Joe Adams punt return vs the Vols, and 4th and 25.

Belue to Scott. If that play doesn't happen, Gators win and we don't play for, and win, our second National Championship.

Not the single greatest play but the first that comes to mind.

quote:

It’s been 16 years since Erik Kimrey threw his most famous pass, a moment that lives on in Gamecock lore as its own proper noun: The Fade.

Kimrey relieved an injured Phil Petty at quarterback in the fourth quarter and threw one pass, a 25-yard touchdown on fourth down to Jermale Kelly that helped USC to a 23-19 win over No. 25 Mississippi State at Williams-Brice Stadium.




Kimrey told Holtz "I can throw the fade, coach" and Lou put him in and Kimrey won the game with the fade.

Kimrey now coaches at Hammond, a private school in the Columbia area, and both of Coach Muschamp's sons are on his team.

For LSU it's probably the last second TD that Clemson scored in 2016 to beat Bama...or the Auburn kick 6.
