Those moments that make the SEC what it is are a combination of the action on the field, the reaction in the stands, and the fact that it can never be replicated. Without fans, this season just doesn't feel the same.
Spent many nights in Tiger Stadium from 2006-2015. Single best moment for me was when the USC loss was announced vs Florida in 2007. With 8 minutes left in the 3rd quarter after LSU cut the lead to 3, Dan Borne announced that Stanford had beaten #1 USC by a score of 24-23. There was so much animosity built up from the 2003 season that for LSU fans, it finally felt like a win would validate we were and had been the better team for 4 years. It was during a TV break and for the 5 minutes until LSU lined up for the kickoff, it was the most out of control I have ever seen Tiger Stadium. That moment has stuck with me ever since.
Most impressive part was in all of that chaos, Tebow ran like a 4 play TD drive to put UF back up 10. That moment though, was the spark that kept the crowd alive the rest of the night. Easily the best moment of time I've ever spent inside those walls.
I love watching other team's moments as well knowing what it means to so many people. What's yours?

Military surprise homecoming before the 2012 Georgia game.
Volume warning if you watch.
Georgia had no shot after that

I've never seen this, that's good stuff! Williams-Bryce doesn't get the credit it deserves for environment when it's full bore behind LSU, Auburn, UGA, UF, etc.

Not SEC, but my freshman year.
Did this with a stadium that only seated 72K.
Texas QB just stands there for 2 minutes because the crowd is too loud. Finally runs the play and is sacked before he takes his 5th step in the dropback.
Great night.
ETA: Just listen to the broadcasters for a taste of the genuflecting crap we had to put up with. “Texas is BACK!”, 80’s version.
YouTube: Don’t mess with the 12th man

Never seen that either. That's the most UT thing I've ever seen.

That helped spark this. Buddy and I were driving home from a duck hunt that evening. Listened on the radio. Still a moment we both talk about and I'm an LSU fan and he's a Nebraska fan.

For sure the 2012 UGA game....first game back from overseas, and my ex was calling me drunk saying they were going to crush us. Needless to say she called me at halftime apologizing for what she said. That was honestly the loudest I have ever heard Willy-B.

Palmer for 2 to tie it up against Tennessee at Legion Field is a memory that has always stayed with me.
A cool moment outside of the game was Siran Stacy firing up the crowd before the 2008 Iron Bowl. He had been one of my favorite players growing up and had just been through an awful tragedy. Crowd was already kinda rabid as it sensed an end to Tubberville’s streak, and Stacy just kind of got everyone going nuts.

Are you serious? You and your buddy, a Nebraska fan, still warmly reminiscence about a play in an Alabama game that occurred over 7 years ago?
You, nor your friend, are either an Alabama fan or an auNeck yet, this topic is still glowing warmly in your collective memories of the times you spent together duck hunting?
This is one of the most pitiful, cucked, simple-minded admissions by a poster I've seen here. And you are still so moved by the play that you freely admit that it is the motivation for this thread.
I know many of us talk about people or things being pitiful here a lot and kind of overuse the term but, wow. You must truly be kind of pitiful in real life. I couldn't imagine anything like that.

#1 was a heartbreaker as an LSU fan. #2, remember exactly where I was for that too. Great football game.

There’s many but one that will rise to the top, and that is the FG attempt return for TD vs Bama with the famed 1 second left.

Kenyan Drake Kick return for touchdown vs Clemson in the national title game.

It's bizarre. You and a Nebraska fan relive joyful memories of your time duck hunting while remembering a play in a football game that involved neither team that either of you support that happened 7 years ago.
And it is the admitted impetus for you to create this thread.
Do you consider yourself to be a normal person that has his priorities in order? Remembering the play is not unusual; I'm sure everyone remembers it because it was a monumental play.
But, having a part of your real life identity attached to the play that wasn't related to you, even as a casual fan of either team involved, is a bit much isn't it?

Yeah, I think "Blocked again! Cody again!" was the craziest I've ever seen/heard at Bryant-Denny. The crowd just went up an unbelievable notch.
I wasn't there but they say that Matt Caddell's TD catch against Arkansas in 2007 was incredibly loud also.
