I gotta go with the Fiesta Bowl. That game couldn't have been scripted better by Hollywood.
- Media-friendly defending national champs come in with a 34 game win streak.
- Over-achieving blue collar team comes in as a huge underdog.
- Defending champs jump out early only to find the underdogs have a mean-as-hell defense.
- The underdogs take the lead thanks to the emotional leader on the defense who came back to college just to win a NC.
- The controversial running back making the play of a lifetime by stripping the ball after a HORRIBLE interception.
- The underdogs take control of the game, but the champs fight back by 1) getting away with a defensive holding call, 2) getting a huge punt return in the final 2 minutes, 3) squeaking a FG through as time expires.
- The first OT: 4th and 14, the PI call, premature fireworks,...
- The second OT: The hit on Dorsey, the goal line stand - top offense in the country and top defense in the country. Which team wants it more?
How can any game come close???
