I picked 2006 Fiesta Bowl. Maybe it's because it's more in my remembery. But I think it's more to do with the fact that all three were about hype, but 2006 was also a BCS Bowl game. I know.. there was no BCS in 1995 and 1996. But those games weren't even bowl games. Also, I enjoyed seeing the Buckeyes chop down Weis, who was set to take over for God, when he retires. (Or maybe God is going to take over for Weis, when HE retires.)

No, God has already coached college football, from '51 thru '78 at tOSU!

I went for the 95 win, it was just wonderful watching Eddie, Terry, and Bobby just destroy that ND team with the 3 time Heisman winner....

It was close between 1995 and 2006, but I went with 2006 because of the disrespect Weis indirectly showed Tressel with his "my one SB ring is worth more than his 5 NC rings" comment and media fellatio the Weis was getting every day. Plus the fact that we put up more yards on them than any other team has in Notre Dame's 1119-game history.

Had to be 2006 for me...Notre Dame had lost some of their luster by '95, and though it was possibly the best win Cooper had, I think that sticking it to all the "Notre Dame is back" media whores and the coach who is going to win 100 national championships in a row (and whose QBs will win even more Heismans than Ron Powlus was supposed to) was the best overall...it also proved we haven't gone anywhere since 2002...no light point when you consider what some were saying midseason last year.

To top it off, the next day we had a surprise lunch out for her, and Terry Smith (at that time, "the voice of the Buckeyes" on 1460) walked into the restaurant while we were dining. I spoke to him and he agreed to come over to our table and visit.

I remember that.
Back when airplanes could fly over the stadium, you had a banner made especially for her.
What a swell guy
