The one for UK should either be the stop on the 4th down against #1 LSU that same season or the pick 6 against South Carolina in 2014, since that was the first SEC team they beat in over 2 years and first for Stoops.
@@tiderbean what?? App state has one of the most iconic moments in cfb but wasn’t ranked or even in the fbs till 2014. Iconic doesn’t correlate to championships
People forgot how wild the whole game was. OU trailed the whole game, then tied and pick 6 to lead with like 3 minutes left, BSU does a hook and ladder on 4th and 18 to send it to OT, does the jump pass, statue of Liberty for the win. The whole game was nuts
The Pitt fake slide was probably one of the most entertaining plays of the season and truly one of a kind. Rightfully banned immediately afterwards, but it was such a smart play and really fun to watch.
As a Navy grad, I'd offer another play for consideration for Navy's most iconic play: in 2007, Navy stopped Notre Dame on a compulsory two-point conversion in triple overtime in South Bend to win the game 46-44 and put an end to Navy's *43* year losing streak to Notre Dame.
BYU and SMU in the 1980 Holiday Bowl brings back so many memories. It was the first night of a two week Christmas break from school, so I was excited to stay up late and watch that game, too young to understand at the time that I was seeing one of the greatest college games in history.
My mother worked at UL-Monroe in 2012. My family was watching the LSU game and saw on the score ticker that the Warhawks were trying to make a comeback against Arkansas. We watched the most ballsy 4th Quarter of play calling ever and when Browning broke the plane the whole city of Monroe came together. Played Baylor at home to a record crowd two weeks later and got to a bowl game for the first time in FBS play. It was a wonderful time to be part of that university
I go to ULM now. We still talk about that game haha. That one and the Bama win in 07. 2012 was a great year, too bad La Tech cost us the opportunity of a fantastic bowl game in Shreveport that year.
I know I’ve said this before but, you should totally be working for ESPN. You do so much research and know so much about the sport. This is another amazing video. Good job bro!
As a fan of the lowly UNLV football team since it was established in 1968, the upbeat moments were few and far between. However, as shown here at the 45:42 mark, this was one of them. Playing on the road against the 'almost' nationally ranked Baylor, who were a two td favorite, UNLV held it's own for the whole game- with just seconds left in the game and Baylor inside UNLV's five yard line, and holding a three point lead, instead of taking a knee and winning the game by the disappointing margin, Baylor tried to salvage a 10 pt win, (polls) and tried to run it in for the td. The rb attempted to leap into the end zone, but lost the ball, which was picked off in the air, and returned for a td- end of game; UNLV 27 Baylor 24. Don't get greedy- take your underplayed win, and count the win, instead of a loss.
You guys might just be decent this year. USU, Hawaii, and Nevada suck, SJSU, Colorado state, New Mexico, and Wyoming are ok and SDSU Fresno Boise and air force are very good but bearable.
JMU fan checking in. I was in D-Hall when that play occurred, and the game was being broadcast through the speakers. When the Hail Mary pass was completed, the entire place erupted. I'll never forget it.
...by the time I got to Flutie beating the Miami I had tears in my eyes..! The emotions I felt watching this compilation of some of the most amazing last second game winning plays are feelings that were reserved for the most important and intimate moments of a lifetime... and that exactly what this video provided me..! Thank you and keep up your great work..!
Absolutely. I am in my early 20’s and yet I’ve seen many of these live and am seeing their story grow. I saw Boise State live and Michigan State live. And I really was waiting to see the “big ones.” In all their history and pageantry, what were the biggest moments in Ohio State University’s history? Alabama? Michigan. Woodson’s heisman moment. The usc Texas game. Things like that. Exactly as you said it
Whenever I see a clip from a Hawaii game from 2007, I'm instantly taken back to a time when we didn't totally suck and we even had a ranking in front of our name. Thanks for the memories. Love your videos and keep up the good work.
Wonder who that dork wearing #10 was in the Colorado clip. Bet ya he didn't make all that big a mark on football after that. Poor kid never stood a chance.
Johnny won the Heisman my freshman year of college. That Alabama game was iconic and that play lives forever. But every Aggie knows that the most iconic play in school history was the sack fumble to end the 1999 t.u game. After everything that had gone on that week with Bonfire Collapse. Brian Gamble falling to his knees at the end of that play is a moment that will never be forgotten.
From the Eastern Michigan play, the receivers name is Craig Ostrander. That is the same name as the high school tight end you play with in NCAA 14 Road to Glory.
Really appreciate you putting the "He has trouble with the snap" play in there for Michigan. Literally the most mad I've ever been in my entire life and every time I watch it even now, 8 years later, it still brings back that same rage and disappointment.
As a die hard Kansas football fan(yes we exist) I have to say that Aqib Talib’s pick six against Virginia Tech in the Orange bowl in 2008 and Todd Reesing’s TD pass to Kerry Meier to beat Missouri in 2008 are above the two pointer to beat Texas in 2021.
@@davidallen5068 I’m gonna give the kid a break. He had to look into 125+ teams over more than 100 years of history. That’s a lot of work lol. And it’s not like the play he chose isn’t going to go down as one of the greatest moments in KU history (at least a lot of us hope so). One could argue Vince Young’s 4th and 18 conversion against KU in 2004 is one of UT’s greatest of all time as well. It propelled them to the Rose Bowl victory against Michigan that year and a national title the year after. It’s most definitely believable to think that had VY not pulled that off against KU, history for the Longhorns goes down much differently.
RG3's touchdown to beat Oklahoma at Floyd Casey was a great play and deserves the recognition, but I would say the goal line stand against Oklahoma State in the BIG XII championship game could go there too.
Looking for an ‘iconic’ positive play, I’d go with the ricocheted pass by RG3. The play selected probably sealed RG3 the Heisman which, with everything else that year, led to the building of McLane Stadium and so it is probably the most important. The goal line stop of OSU is a top play but I do not think it represents much more than a quality (rebuilt) program making a really great play to finish off a great conference season and thus is not as iconic long term. But the ricocheted pass defines the seeming inevitably of how that season would go and thus is more iconic of not only its season in total but also what the program’s future was. Our most negative ‘iconic’ play is the one chosen for UNLV. Any long time BU fan still will cringe if UNLV is mentioned in any context.
Your argument definitely isn't unreasonable, that was a big play in a big game. But the Oklahoma-Nebraska game in 1971 was billed as the game of the century, people looked forward to it all year. And it was a pretty incredible play also.
@@zekleinhammer Originally he had planned to retire after the 1998 season, when Tennessee won the national title. For the next seven seasons he did part time announcing duties, mostly on the west coast.
@@johnwiesner9590 Yeah but I knew that was going to be Michigan State's most iconic play from the beginning of the video but it still changed my emotion lol
I submit for Alabama the 4th down goal line stand in the 1979 Sugar Bowl against Penn State. Still, the Devontae Smith OT catch was also a phenomenal play. Just keeping that power running monster PSU out of the end zone from a foot away is epic.
As a die hard Clemson fan. Every time I see that winning td pass to win the natty against bama, i get goosebumps, it also happened on my birthday. Legendary tiger moment . 8:34
as a Kentucky fan I feel like the LSU stop on 4th was a way more iconic and historical moment for the program. however, that pass was definitely a huge moment for the Wildcats.
Indiana's and Illinois's most iconic plays both came against Penn State - both games which pretty much derailed PSU's season in 2020 and 2021, respectively.
The Illinois game was correct, Penn State was shit that day. The Indiana game should've ended in a Penn State win because the ball touched the ground before the pylon.
I noticed that too, though I think the refs made a bad call in the Indiana game. Ball touched the ground out of bounds before hitting the pylon. As for Illinois, the walk-off field goal against #6 Wisconsin in 2019 might have been a better choice.
Is it healthy that I can still recite Sean McDonough’s call of The Trouble With The Snap from memory, six and a half years later? Voice cracks and all?
@@pschighlights It was the greatest moment of my life. Beating OSU and winning the B1G Championship that year? Nope. Winning the Rose Bowl in 2013? Came close. But that? Greatest moment in my sports life.
I almost lost my voice when that play happened. The surrender cobra reaction was perfect, and that guy will have to live with it for the rest of his life.
As a Tulsa fan I gotta say John Flanders interception in the endzone in final minute to beat Norte Dame in South Bend in 2010 is definitely the greatest play in Tulsa history. Great video though love your work!
Good but Chris Penn's catch last minute or so in Texas am upset..1991 just as exciting.wes Caswell 99 yds td right before half vs ou 1996 hurricane victory..my top 3..4 sure
Great video! Keith Jackson, Brent Musberger, Verne Lundquist, Sean McDonough, Chris Fowler, Brad Nessler, and so many others. The passion of the announcers to tell a story, gotta love it.
That Texas vs. USC game is one of the greatest B1G vs. SEC games I've ever watched live. 🙃 Also going to miss all the smaller schools upsetting the big boys when the super conference era inevitably begins.
I see angles for how Scott's TD and Ringo's Pick Six are both deserving of the spot for Georgia. From the purely in-game perspective, Georgia going from a sure loss to keeping their 1980 championship season alive in one pass play was a thrilling moment. For the other play Georgia was ahead and didn't need a TD to secure the game, but that play was a cathartic moment for multiple generations of Dawgs fans tired of seeing another team and their fanbase reach that summit.
Good choice for Nebraska. Though, I'd argue that the "Fumblerooski" in the 1984 Orange Bowl (national championship) against Miami was more iconic, though Nebraska lost that game by one point due to a failed two-point conversion to take the lead.
"Woooaah he has trouble with the snap!... and the ball is free!!!" That shit will NEVER get old for me. I could watch that clip every day for the rest of my life and it would never stop bringing me joy 😂
I would make the argument that the punt return against Tennessee was Arkansas’ most iconic play but this one against ole miss was an amazing one as well!
I was curious how often each team was on the opposite side of the ball the most. Might of missed a few, but ... 8: Alabama 5: Mighigan, Oklahoma, FSU 4: Washington, USC, Miami, Pitt, Penn St., Arkansas 3: NotreDame, Houston, Nebraska, Texas Tech, Boise State
Oklahoma had six. Boise State. Baylor, Florida, K State, Nebraska and Oklahoma State. Wasn't surprised at Boise State and Nebraska. Figured Oklahoma State would have an OU play but wasn't sure which one. A bit surprised that Baylor, Florida and K State had an OU play as their "iconic" play
I appreciate the time stamps and playing the entire radio call for 'The Pick' at Autzen....I was friggin there 17 rows up in the corner where Wheaton intercepted Huard. GO DUCKS!!
The original audio for Johnny Rodgers' TD is much better. I'd also argue that Tommie Frazier's TD run against Florida with Jim Nantz's commentary is just as great
He had three plays to choose from for Nebraska with those two and the miracle in mizzou and I don't think he could have gone wrong with any of them. But ya not having Lyell Bremser's call on the clip he used was pretty disappointing. "Man, woman, and child did that put 'em in the aisle! Johnny the jet Rodgers just tore 'em loose from their shoes!" Classic
Glad to see you got BYU correct. Another acceptable answer for them is ty detmer making number 1 Miami's defense look silly while throwing the game winning touchdown in 1990
It hurts to watch Desmond Howard’s punt return every time I see it, but immediately watching Michigan State return that botched snap for a TD afterwards made me feel good again. Also, Zeke running 85 yards through the Heart of the South is as iconic as it can get. GO BUCKS!
@@pigskin1287 When you have a poor defense that should never come close to being on the same field as an offense like Bama, giving up 200 to a player like him in a single half can happen lol. I obviously wish that game could’ve been more competitive.
As an Oklahoma fan born and raised, I watched the Superman Roy play. As crazy as that was, to me the play I think which is just as iconic and what helped coined the phrase “Sooner Magic” is what I think of in the history of Oklahoma football. 1976 OU vs Nebraska and the hook and lateral from Rhodes to Peacock.
If instant replay was around for that Memphis kick return vs Tenn (22:28) the call would've definitely been overturned. The ball-carrier's elbow was down way back at the Memphis 27 yard line.
The video was an outstanding idea and made even better by telling us in the description where to find the clip from our favorite team! I was a big Louisville fan for many years when I resided in southern Indiana and I was at the game from which their clip is shown! It was on September 26, 2002 and was the ESPN Thursday night game of the week. Louisville was coming off four consecutive minor to mid level bowl games and starting to crack the top 25 once in a while, but still hadn't gotten that breakthrough, program defining win. Furthermore, while we were starting to get road games against marquee opponents, we had a very hard time getting them to visit us. So I was particularly excited about this game when it was scheduled a few years earlier as part of a home and home. We lost 31-0 at FSU in 2000 and entered the game against them in 2002 with a disappointing 2-2 record, but brought out A game that night and pulled off the big upset win in overtime, though that FSU team turned out not to be as good as we expected. They entered the game 4-0 and ranked #4, but ended the season 9-5 and ranked 21. Despite our big win, we finished only 7-6 but have had a lot more good seasons than bad since, and had several periods in which we were frequently ranked, even in the top 10. It rained from start to finish that night, and I never would've even gone to the game, let alone stayed the whole time, had it not been a marquee opponent. It was miserable to watch, but when we won, it was all worth it. It's the only goal post tear down I've ever participated in, and I still have a scar on my left middle finger from a scrape in the huge crowd. I also ended up with a cold and my white T shirt turned red from the sweater I was wearing, but it was all worth it! And making it even more emotional is that it was our first home game since the death of our most prestigious former player, Johnny Unitas. And showing how classy Louisville fans are, at the end of the night, a piece of the goal post was left at the statue of him. Thanks again, and I look forward to watching the other clips also!
Great job on a ridiculously ambitious project. Alabama's got a ton to pick from of course, but I love the goal line stand in the 1979 Sugar Bowl. Bear's last title. But it's impossible to pick just one play from powerhouses like Bama. For Pitt, I love the Pickett play, but I think something from the 1976 national championship team would be "iconic". Disappointed the Maryland play is a no-audio play. The denial of Miami's 2-pt conversion in the crazy 1984 comeback over Miami would have gotten my vote. Major props for putting this together. Amazing job.
The Johnny Rogers punt return TD vs Oklahoma in the 1971 "Game of the Century" is one of the greater plays in Nebraska football history, but I would actually rank it 3rd, behind "The Flea Kicker" by Shevin Wiggins and Matt Davison in the 1997 Nebraska-Missouri game and "The Run" by Tommie Frazier in the 1996 Fiesta Bowl vs Florida.
Nebraska has had some great all-time plays. I think the Rogers punt return may have been more significant. But the Tommy Frazier run vs Florida was unforgettable, even if the score was already out of hand by that point.
You got it right for Iowa State. The local Wing Stop, (owned by Seneca Wallace himself) has a plaque on the wall commemorating that play. Every Iowa State fan remembers "The Run"
Virginia Tech's most iconic play is either the Vick run to get into field goal range against WV to preserve the undefeated season or the punt return by Brian Still in the Sugar Bowl against Texas that basically launched the Beamer era. The play you picked here is the touchdown but the play before it on the catch by Danny Coale was way more iconic to be honest.
Agreed. Weird that the TD was the pick for most iconic, when the pass to Danny Coale a minute before is what most VT fans remember about that game. Your Vick and Still plays are in the top 5 and I'd argue the Druck to Holmes TD in '95 against UVA, Vick's flip against JMU, the Vick run against BC and Logan's run against Miami are more iconic.
1980 holiday bowl comeback was the most insane thing ive ever seen. The challenge on ps2 ncaa football game was impossible. It was even harder to pull off in real life. Love these videos man, appreciate it.
Sooner fan here. I should've known OU's play was going to be the "Superman" play. I have a sticker of that play on the back window of my car. That's how much I LOVE that play! No offense all game, or next to none. You knew someone was going to make a play that would seal the deal. I don't know that I've ever seen a player control a game from the DB position like Roy Williams did. A BEAST!!!
@@coreyorr3819 I forgot it. It wasn't really a beat down considering half of the OSU defense was out with covid. I think if it was a more evenly matched game, it wouldn't have been such a "beatdown".
Without a doubt! The school wanted to drop football in the late 70s but Coach Schnellenberger promised a title within five years. That 1983 season was the fifth year. Not to mention they upset what was considered the greatest CFB team ever, at the time. The Ed Reed play in 2001 is iconic, but Miami was ahead 12-7 when he scored only padding the final margin. And even if they lose at BC that day, they still likely play for a title since Nebraska & Oregon also had one loss each.
Boise State missing 3 consecutive less than 20 yard FGs to choke a 21 point lead and taking them out of a national Championship defineatly pretty high on that list……. They don’t miss just one of them and college football could be such a drastically different sport today….. 1. They’d be undefeated 2. They’d have to take Oregon out of the championship 3. It would be Auburn vs Boise State in the title game 4. Boise State would be statistically the most difficult team Auburn ever played all season, with very limited answer to their offense 5. Boise State would be only team Auburn ever played with experience playing against a running QB 6. Boise State wins that game or even keeps it close, CFP is probably not 4 teams….. in fact it’s probably an 8 team playoff even earlier than 2013. 7. They win that game the entire landscape changes….. A FG has never had such significant implications on the sport before
I think Tommy Frazier’s run against Florida is Nebraska’s most iconic play ever. The man literally broke 10 plus tackles but that Johnny Rogers return is up there. In recent history it’s gotta be the Ron Kellog Hail Mary to Westercamp against Northwestern.
First off, thank you for this amazing video. You do great work & this is the greater of your work. Disagreements, 3 stand out. Nebraska, The U, & Ohio State. Nebraska would be Tommie Frazier’s run, The U would be when they beat Nebraska on that failed 2 point for the chip in ‘84, & OSU would be “Holy Buckeye” or the final play of the 2002 title game. But yea, that’s nitpicking lol.
I don't care who your favorite team is, that Appalachian State blocked FG and that Cal-Stanford ending both got to be on the Mount Rushmore of all-time CFB moments. Also, Johnny Rodgers' punt return against Oklahoma and Tommie Frazier's run against Florida in the Fiesta Bowl are kind of 1A/1B on Nebraska's most iconic plays. Hard for me to choose between one or the other tbh.
The Appalachian State Mountaineers taming my Michigan Wolverines was the watershed moment in college football, where suddenly years later it was the norm to see smaller G5 schools compete with Power conferences 😏😳

The one for UK should either be the stop on the 4th down against #1 LSU that same season or the pick 6 against South Carolina in 2014, since that was the first SEC team they beat in over 2 years and first for Stoops.
@@Michael_H.264 about 2 weeks. It was a grind lol.
Let's be honest. Auburn has one of the greatest moments with the Kick Six of 2013. And "The Play" of 1982 for Cal. ICONIC!
And the “Gift Six” of 2015 for Michigan State.
How national championships have they won again? Iconic don't mean shit if you don't cash in.
@@tiderbean what?? App state has one of the most iconic moments in cfb but wasn’t ranked or even in the fbs till 2014. Iconic doesn’t correlate to championships
Uhh...that's why it's here
@@cartermyers1156 That game was one of the mistakes for both teams, and Michigan had a terrible record that year.
Props to you for puttting in the time to do this video. Must have taken forever
I echo this. Nicely done
Boise State’s win over Oklahoma will forever go down in history as one of the best calls and best football games of all time in my opinion.
No doubt... and the hook & ladder play TD, that set up the Statue of Liberty 2 pt conversion, was just as iconic.
So true
And finding out via phone call that your mom died of cancer will be my favorite.
@@Makai77 forgot about that one. Completely amazing finish.
People forgot how wild the whole game was. OU trailed the whole game, then tied and pick 6 to lead with like 3 minutes left, BSU does a hook and ladder on 4th and 18 to send it to OT, does the jump pass, statue of Liberty for the win. The whole game was nuts
The Pitt fake slide was probably one of the most entertaining plays of the season and truly one of a kind. Rightfully banned immediately afterwards, but it was such a smart play and really fun to watch.
Nobody here is a casual
I'm no Auburn fan but that Kick Six to beat Bama is the best play of em all lol the look on Sabans face is absolutely priceless.
That Georgia Southern Play is known as “The Run” and the way he throws that player is legendary
that he did
Same with the ISU play by Seneca Wallace. He ran a total of 140 yards for a 12 yard TD, scrambled to make it happen.
'The Run' very original
As a Navy grad, I'd offer another play for consideration for Navy's most iconic play: in 2007, Navy stopped Notre Dame on a compulsory two-point conversion in triple overtime in South Bend to win the game 46-44 and put an end to Navy's *43* year losing streak to Notre Dame.
Probably needs to be vs army, but the screen pass for a TD against Notre Dame a few years later at the meadowlands was also good
of course it was 2007
As an ND fan I very very much agree!!!
Man that 2007 season was crazy. Best year I've ever watched CFB.
BYU and SMU in the 1980 Holiday Bowl brings back so many memories. It was the first night of a two week Christmas break from school, so I was excited to stay up late and watch that game, too young to understand at the time that I was seeing one of the greatest college games in history.
My mother worked at UL-Monroe in 2012. My family was watching the LSU game and saw on the score ticker that the Warhawks were trying to make a comeback against Arkansas. We watched the most ballsy 4th Quarter of play calling ever and when Browning broke the plane the whole city of Monroe came together. Played Baylor at home to a record crowd two weeks later and got to a bowl game for the first time in FBS play. It was a wonderful time to be part of that university
They will always be Northeastern State to me though
I go to ULM now. We still talk about that game haha. That one and the Bama win in 07. 2012 was a great year, too bad La Tech cost us the opportunity of a fantastic bowl game in Shreveport that year.
I know I’ve said this before but, you should totally be working for ESPN. You do so much research and know so much about the sport. This is another amazing video. Good job bro!
Thanks man that means a lot ☺️
Totally agree, what you do PSC is impressive
Nah. Fuck ESPN they suck
Please don’t go work for ESPN, they’ll find a way to ruin it
Espn will ruin u
As a fan of the lowly UNLV football team since it was established in 1968, the upbeat moments were few and far between. However, as shown here at the 45:42 mark, this was one of them. Playing on the road against the 'almost' nationally ranked Baylor, who were a two td favorite, UNLV held it's own for the whole game- with just seconds left in the game and Baylor inside UNLV's five yard line, and holding a three point lead, instead of taking a knee and winning the game by the disappointing margin, Baylor tried to salvage a 10 pt win, (polls) and tried to run it in for the td. The rb attempted to leap into the end zone, but lost the ball, which was picked off in the air, and returned for a td- end of game; UNLV 27 Baylor 24. Don't get greedy- take your underplayed win, and count the win, instead of a loss.
I hope y'all can join the Big 12 and play my Coogs. That way we can have the Fertitta Bowl 😂
You guys might just be decent this year. USU, Hawaii, and Nevada suck, SJSU, Colorado state, New Mexico, and Wyoming are ok and SDSU Fresno Boise and air force are very good but bearable.
Fun fact: Suge Knight played for UNLV
As a Utsa fan from the beginning I love unlv! Hope we can stay grow together and get a little rivalry going!
Also, as a Baylor fan growing up, HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT WAS UNLV!!!! IVE SEEN THAT OKAY SO MANY TIMES AND LIVE
JMU fan checking in.
I was in D-Hall when that play occurred, and the game was being broadcast through the speakers. When the Hail Mary pass was completed, the entire place erupted. I'll never forget it.
Awesome story go dukes
...by the time I got to Flutie beating the Miami I had tears in my eyes..! The emotions I felt watching this compilation of some of the most amazing last second game winning plays are feelings that were reserved for the most important and intimate moments of a lifetime... and that exactly what this video provided me..! Thank you and keep up your great work..!
Absolutely. I am in my early 20’s and yet I’ve seen many of these live and am seeing their story grow. I saw Boise State live and Michigan State live. And I really was waiting to see the “big ones.”
In all their history and pageantry, what were the biggest moments in Ohio State University’s history? Alabama? Michigan. Woodson’s heisman moment. The usc Texas game. Things like that. Exactly as you said it
Whenever I see a clip from a Hawaii game from 2007, I'm instantly taken back to a time when we didn't totally suck and we even had a ranking in front of our name. Thanks for the memories. Love your videos and keep up the good work.
Colt took us places we may never see again. REST IN PARADISE #15 🙏🙏
That was a wild year. There was a point where Kansas was ranked #1
@@obijuanquenobi1911 2007 definitely was something. Week in and week out, nobody was safe. And it all started with App. State
@@mycah808 I’d argue that the shitshow started with the fiesta bowl earlier in that year when Boise State defeated Oklahoma
@@obijuanquenobi1911 I believe that too lol.
Vince running to the corner on 4th down to win the Championship is my favorite football memory of all time.
The broken up pass in the 1984 national championship game against Nebraska should’ve been the most iconic play in University of Miami football history
"OH MY GOODNESS! HE STUMBLED AND FUMBLED!"
Never gets old.
Also, let’s appreciate the fact that Michigan is in back-to-back highlights. One highlight and one lowlight 😂
Alphabetical order and a rivalry with MSU so makes sense, but yeah Michigan has some fun ones here lol
Michigan was also in app state’s(duh) and colorado’s earlier in the vid, northwestern’s, and south carolina’s later
Wonder who that dork wearing #10 was in the Colorado clip. Bet ya he didn't make all that big a mark on football after that. Poor kid never stood a chance.
@@goonerbear8659 Tom Brady was #10 for Michigan
Johnny won the Heisman my freshman year of college. That Alabama game was iconic and that play lives forever.
But every Aggie knows that the most iconic play in school history was the sack fumble to end the 1999 t.u game. After everything that had gone on that week with Bonfire Collapse. Brian Gamble falling to his knees at the end of that play is a moment that will never be forgotten.
From the Eastern Michigan play, the receivers name is Craig Ostrander. That is the same name as the high school tight end you play with in NCAA 14 Road to Glory.
i knew i recognized that name
Yep.
It’s the same guy, the EA developer who put himself in the game was a former Eastern Michigan receiver
My homies Alex Howell, Geo Sarria, Thien Nguyen, Craig Ostrander, wouldnt have made it to my school of choice without those ballers in HS
@@andrewwhite1515 I did this thing where I brought Alex Howell with me.
The surrender cobra reaction by that Michigan student at 24:49 is priceless. The Spartans have won 10 out of the last 14 games in this rivalry.
I really enjoyed all the times Bama got owned in this video. You should add in those time stamps as well, lol! Great video!
Really appreciate you putting the "He has trouble with the snap" play in there for Michigan. Literally the most mad I've ever been in my entire life and every time I watch it even now, 8 years later, it still brings back that same rage and disappointment.
Fun fact: Boise St running back Ian Johnson proposed to his gf immediately after that play. They are still married 15 years later.
Yep...all captured on FOX for the nation to witness. 😁😁
Nice. Hope they're still doing well.
As a die hard Kansas football fan(yes we exist) I have to say that Aqib Talib’s pick six against Virginia Tech in the Orange bowl in 2008 and Todd Reesing’s TD pass to Kerry Meier to beat Missouri in 2008 are above the two pointer to beat Texas in 2021.
Sure our football history hasn’t been the greatest… but my lord we’ve had an unfairly high number of epic plays.
Aqib Talib pick 6 and Reesing to Meier are absolutely the first two that come to mind as a Jayhawk fan, 1000%, good call.
Such an L to pick that play against Texas. No research or anything went into that.
@@davidallen5068 I’m gonna give the kid a break. He had to look into 125+ teams over more than 100 years of history. That’s a lot of work lol. And it’s not like the play he chose isn’t going to go down as one of the greatest moments in KU history (at least a lot of us hope so). One could argue Vince Young’s 4th and 18 conversion against KU in 2004 is one of UT’s greatest of all time as well. It propelled them to the Rose Bowl victory against Michigan that year and a national title the year after. It’s most definitely believable to think that had VY not pulled that off against KU, history for the Longhorns goes down much differently.
I love how depressed Brent Musberger sounds for Missouri at 26:14. He definitely had money on Kansas
“He’s going for the corner! He’s got it!” Still gives me chills to this day
I remember watching that game live on TV. It was insane.
Dude this is a labor of love of the game thank you for making this
RG3's touchdown to beat Oklahoma at Floyd Casey was a great play and deserves the recognition, but I would say the goal line stand against Oklahoma State in the BIG XII championship game could go there too.
I would've put the crazy ricochet pass by RG3
Looking for an ‘iconic’ positive play, I’d go with the ricocheted pass by RG3. The play selected probably sealed RG3 the Heisman which, with everything else that year, led to the building of McLane Stadium and so it is probably the most important. The goal line stop of OSU is a top play but I do not think it represents much more than a quality (rebuilt) program making a really great play to finish off a great conference season and thus is not as iconic long term. But the ricocheted pass defines the seeming inevitably of how that season would go and thus is more iconic of not only its season in total but also what the program’s future was.
Our most negative ‘iconic’ play is the one chosen for UNLV. Any long time BU fan still will cringe if UNLV is mentioned in any context.
The fact that you did every FBS team and not just the power 5 teams shows your commitment and we appreciate that and you!
Great video. Not a Nebraska fan, but for me the most iconic Huskers play is Tommy Frazier's run against Florida in the National Championship Game.
Your argument definitely isn't unreasonable, that was a big play in a big game. But the Oklahoma-Nebraska game in 1971 was billed as the game of the century, people looked forward to it all year. And it was a pretty incredible play also.
@@rappmasterdugg6825 it just needs to be lyell bremser's voice to be the iconic clip
Great pic on the Cincy play. I remember watching that live. Insane game.
The Texas moment at 40:38 was the final game announced by the legendary Keith Jackson.
I also like the he didn’t announce his retirement ahead of time. The story was always about the game, not the announcers
@@zekleinhammer Originally he had planned to retire after the 1998 season, when Tennessee won the national title. For the next seven seasons he did part time announcing duties, mostly on the west coast.
Well worth a full watch. 52 minutes and not a single team left out. Nice work.
I will never forget Howard's punt return touchdown and Keith Jackson's call of the play. "Goodbye! Hello Heisman!" Great video from Michigan! Go Blue!
Woah he has trouble with the snap…
I know you weren't happy with the video that immediately followed. The surrender cobra reaction at 24:49 was priceless.
@@johnwiesner9590 Yeah but I knew that was going to be Michigan State's most iconic play from the beginning of the video but it still changed my emotion lol
71-38-5 vs sparty. Enjoy your one play
@@upbeatproductions7614 AND THE BALL IS FREE!
What a great video. I watched from beginning to end. Great job!
I submit for Alabama the 4th down goal line stand in the 1979 Sugar Bowl against Penn State. Still, the Devontae Smith OT catch was also a phenomenal play. Just keeping that power running monster PSU out of the end zone from a foot away is epic.
😂😂😂 @ 3:04
Commentator: "TouchDown No Flags"!!! 🚩 😂😂😂
As a die hard Clemson fan. Every time I see that winning td pass to win the natty against bama, i get goosebumps, it also happened on my birthday. Legendary tiger moment . 8:34
#8 Rice versus unranked Alabama is wild to see. How times have changed
as a Kentucky fan I feel like the LSU stop on 4th was a way more iconic and historical moment for the program. however, that pass was definitely a huge moment for the Wildcats.
Was not expecting you to get my team's play right, but you did. Nice job.
Indiana's and Illinois's most iconic plays both came against Penn State - both games which pretty much derailed PSU's season in 2020 and 2021, respectively.
must be a psu hater saying this lol those are not even close to those teams most iconic wins
@@crackers1033 Agreed, especially for Illinois. The 4th and Inches against Ohio State in '07 is more iconic in my opinion
The Illinois game was correct, Penn State was shit that day. The Indiana game should've ended in a Penn State win because the ball touched the ground before the pylon.
I noticed that too, though I think the refs made a bad call in the Indiana game. Ball touched the ground out of bounds before hitting the pylon.
As for Illinois, the walk-off field goal against #6 Wisconsin in 2019 might have been a better choice.
@@ericdailey8587 that Wisconsin game is a great choice too
Awesome video.
Is it healthy that I can still recite Sean McDonough’s call of The Trouble With The Snap from memory, six and a half years later? Voice cracks and all?
Absolutely
Yea nothing wrong with that lol. It’s one of the most famous announcer calls ever.
@@pschighlights It was the greatest moment of my life. Beating OSU and winning the B1G Championship that year? Nope. Winning the Rose Bowl in 2013? Came close. But that? Greatest moment in my sports life.
I almost lost my voice when that play happened. The surrender cobra reaction was perfect, and that guy will have to live with it for the rest of his life.
Absolutely, because so can I
Hell of a compilation. Well done!
Great video. I'll add an honorable mention to the Alabama file...George Teague's run down/strip of ball in '93 Sugar Bowl vs Miami.
That should the play, no debate
I'm so happy Oregon's was The Pick by Kenny Wheaton. It was the defining shift in turning the football program around. Also, huck the fuskies!
*KENNY WHEATON'S GUNNA SCORE, KENNY WHEATON'S GUNNA SCORE!!*
Still gives me chills!!
I knew IMMEDIATELY the Iowa Hawkeyes play and can remember watching it live!
You sir, are a legend. Best highlights video creator on TH-cam!
Nebraska, I think you made the right play, but I 100% would have done the more famous Lyell Bremser coverage of it.
Yea sorry about that I couldn’t find a version of the high quality one with the better announcer call.
I also wouldn't expect non-nebraskans to understand or always know our attachment to that specific call on film
You crushed this!!! Great job!
As a Tulsa fan I gotta say John Flanders interception in the endzone in final minute to beat Norte Dame in South Bend in 2010 is definitely the greatest play in Tulsa history. Great video though love your work!
Good but Chris Penn's catch last minute or so in Texas am upset..1991 just as exciting.wes Caswell 99 yds td right before half vs ou 1996 hurricane victory..my top 3..4 sure
Great job. I grew up going to Air Force games and seeing that blocked punt to steal the win against the Irish raised the goosebumps all over again.
I'm a Boise native. If you think you were excited for us, I can't even begin to describe how we felt.
All time play in an all time drive. Maybe one of the best endings ever. Had hook and ladder and then the statue of liberty.
Ripped my sooner heart to pieces. Lol
yep even as a child it was so exciting
Great video! Keith Jackson, Brent Musberger, Verne Lundquist, Sean McDonough, Chris Fowler, Brad Nessler, and so many others. The passion of the announcers to tell a story, gotta love it.
Whoooooa Nellie
Gus Johnson, Sean McDonough, and Joe Davis are the top 3 right now in any order.
Sean McDonough is so underrated and has been for a long time
Got the Iowa State one dead wrong. Them beating Oklahoma State in 2011 literally shattered the BCS era of college football.
That Texas vs. USC game is one of the greatest B1G vs. SEC games I've ever watched live. 🙃
Also going to miss all the smaller schools upsetting the big boys when the super conference era inevitably begins.
Its basically already super confernces
Troy Aikman... legendary Pac 10, B1G, SEC, Big 8/XII QB.
Texas is Big12 and USC was PAC10
@@15blackshirt We know. That was the joke.
@Will Muny, I said USC was PAC10 and am well aware it's the PAC12 now, thanks to Colorado and Utah. USC and UCLA are joining the BIG in two years
I see angles for how Scott's TD and Ringo's Pick Six are both deserving of the spot for Georgia. From the purely in-game perspective, Georgia going from a sure loss to keeping their 1980 championship season alive in one pass play was a thrilling moment. For the other play Georgia was ahead and didn't need a TD to secure the game, but that play was a cathartic moment for multiple generations of Dawgs fans tired of seeing another team and their fanbase reach that summit.
Good choice for Nebraska. Though, I'd argue that the "Fumblerooski" in the 1984 Orange Bowl (national championship) against Miami was more iconic, though Nebraska lost that game by one point due to a failed two-point conversion to take the lead.
"Woooaah he has trouble with the snap!... and the ball is free!!!" That shit will NEVER get old for me. I could watch that clip every day for the rest of my life and it would never stop bringing me joy 😂
I'll say it, I've never gone from as happy I can be to p!$$ed so fast😂😂😂
I would make the argument that the punt return against Tennessee was Arkansas’ most iconic play but this one against ole miss was an amazing one as well!
Loved Joe Adams's return against TN, but I knew immediately that this was going to be 4th & 25 or Miracle on Markham.
I was curious how often each team was on the opposite side of the ball the most. Might of missed a few, but ...
8: Alabama
5: Mighigan, Oklahoma, FSU
4: Washington, USC, Miami, Pitt, Penn St., Arkansas
3: NotreDame, Houston, Nebraska, Texas Tech, Boise State
Shows how big it is to beat Bama these days.
Can’t have an iconic play without an iconic opponent 🤷🏻♂️
OU at least 7. I agree with the point, shows how good you are when beating your team is such a huge deal for the other team.
Oklahoma had six. Boise State. Baylor, Florida, K State, Nebraska and Oklahoma State. Wasn't surprised at Boise State and Nebraska. Figured Oklahoma State would have an OU play but wasn't sure which one. A bit surprised that Baylor, Florida and K State had an OU play as their "iconic" play
lol Michigan
I appreciate the time stamps and playing the entire radio call for 'The Pick' at Autzen....I was friggin there 17 rows up in the corner where Wheaton intercepted Huard. GO DUCKS!!
The original audio for Johnny Rodgers' TD is much better. I'd also argue that Tommie Frazier's TD run against Florida with Jim Nantz's commentary is just as great
He had three plays to choose from for Nebraska with those two and the miracle in mizzou and I don't think he could have gone wrong with any of them. But ya not having Lyell Bremser's call on the clip he used was pretty disappointing. "Man, woman, and child did that put 'em in the aisle! Johnny the jet Rodgers just tore 'em loose from their shoes!" Classic
I suppose there's room to argue........but thanks for all the WORK on this...... Every team TIME STAMPED in the description... good job.
Glad to see you got BYU correct. Another acceptable answer for them is ty detmer making number 1 Miami's defense look silly while throwing the game winning touchdown in 1990
Thanks for posting this because I never saw the Central Michigan play before. That was great.
Pitt: the Dan Marino pass to win the sugar bowl, not Kenny Pickett's fake slide
daren sproles really a special talent.18:30 . glad he was able to show the same abilities in the league he really one of a kind
It hurts to watch Desmond Howard’s punt return every time I see it, but immediately watching Michigan State return that botched snap for a TD afterwards made me feel good again. Also, Zeke running 85 yards through the Heart of the South is as iconic as it can get. GO BUCKS!
Almost as iconic as the Slim Reaper going for 200 in the first half.
@@pigskin1287 When you have a poor defense that should never come close to being on the same field as an offense like Bama, giving up 200 to a player like him in a single half can happen lol. I obviously wish that game could’ve been more competitive.
@@brock_decoy70 ⭕️-🙌🏻-🙏-⭕️
Oh how I hate Ohio State.
42-27 (:
As an Oklahoma fan born and raised, I watched the Superman Roy play. As crazy as that was, to me the play I think which is just as iconic and what helped coined the phrase “Sooner Magic” is what I think of in the history of Oklahoma football. 1976 OU vs Nebraska and the hook and lateral from Rhodes to Peacock.
If instant replay was around for that Memphis kick return vs Tenn (22:28) the call would've definitely been overturned. The ball-carrier's elbow was down way back at the Memphis 27 yard line.
The video was an outstanding idea and made even better by telling us in the description where to find the clip from our favorite team! I was a big Louisville fan for many years when I resided in southern Indiana and I was at the game from which their clip is shown! It was on September 26, 2002 and was the ESPN Thursday night game of the week. Louisville was coming off four consecutive minor to mid level bowl games and starting to crack the top 25 once in a while, but still hadn't gotten that breakthrough, program defining win. Furthermore, while we were starting to get road games against marquee opponents, we had a very hard time getting them to visit us. So I was particularly excited about this game when it was scheduled a few years earlier as part of a home and home. We lost 31-0 at FSU in 2000 and entered the game against them in 2002 with a disappointing 2-2 record, but brought out A game that night and pulled off the big upset win in overtime, though that FSU team turned out not to be as good as we expected. They entered the game 4-0 and ranked #4, but ended the season 9-5 and ranked 21. Despite our big win, we finished only 7-6 but have had a lot more good seasons than bad since, and had several periods in which we were frequently ranked, even in the top 10. It rained from start to finish that night, and I never would've even gone to the game, let alone stayed the whole time, had it not been a marquee opponent. It was miserable to watch, but when we won, it was all worth it. It's the only goal post tear down I've ever participated in, and I still have a scar on my left middle finger from a scrape in the huge crowd. I also ended up with a cold and my white T shirt turned red from the sweater I was wearing, but it was all worth it! And making it even more emotional is that it was our first home game since the death of our most prestigious former player, Johnny Unitas. And showing how classy Louisville fans are, at the end of the night, a piece of the goal post was left at the statue of him.
Thanks again, and I look forward to watching the other clips also!
Colorado's most iconic moment was the time the refs forgot how to count downs.
Great job on a ridiculously ambitious project. Alabama's got a ton to pick from of course, but I love the goal line stand in the 1979 Sugar Bowl. Bear's last title. But it's impossible to pick just one play from powerhouses like Bama. For Pitt, I love the Pickett play, but I think something from the 1976 national championship team would be "iconic". Disappointed the Maryland play is a no-audio play. The denial of Miami's 2-pt conversion in the crazy 1984 comeback over Miami would have gotten my vote. Major props for putting this together. Amazing job.
The Johnny Rogers punt return TD vs Oklahoma in the 1971 "Game of the Century" is one of the greater plays in Nebraska football history, but I would actually rank it 3rd, behind "The Flea Kicker" by Shevin Wiggins and Matt Davison in the 1997 Nebraska-Missouri game and "The Run" by Tommie Frazier in the 1996 Fiesta Bowl vs Florida.
I thought the drop by Irving Fryer would be the one for Miami.
Frazier is the clear #1. Video also missed the better commentary for Johnny the Jet Rogers. Fumblerooski is also up there, great history for Nebraska
I think the Kellogg Hail Mary to Westercamp is up there too. Top 5 for sure
Nebraska has had some great all-time plays. I think the Rogers punt return may have been more significant. But the Tommy Frazier run vs Florida was unforgettable, even if the score was already out of hand by that point.
I'm just thankful they didn't pick the Northwestern hail mary
This is so great! Thanks for putting this together!
Boise State's statue of liberty vs Oklahoma and Auburn's kick six vs Alabama are the best imo.
You got it right for Iowa State. The local Wing Stop, (owned by Seneca Wallace himself) has a plaque on the wall commemorating that play. Every Iowa State fan remembers "The Run"
Virginia Tech's most iconic play is either the Vick run to get into field goal range against WV to preserve the undefeated season or the punt return by Brian Still in the Sugar Bowl against Texas that basically launched the Beamer era. The play you picked here is the touchdown but the play before it on the catch by Danny Coale was way more iconic to be honest.
Agreed. Weird that the TD was the pick for most iconic, when the pass to Danny Coale a minute before is what most VT fans remember about that game. Your Vick and Still plays are in the top 5 and I'd argue the Druck to Holmes TD in '95 against UVA, Vick's flip against JMU, the Vick run against BC and Logan's run against Miami are more iconic.
1980 holiday bowl comeback was the most insane thing ive ever seen. The challenge on ps2 ncaa football game was impossible. It was even harder to pull off in real life. Love these videos man, appreciate it.
I went to bed when SMU was up big. No one woke me up. I found out the next day.
Sooner fan here. I should've known OU's play was going to be the "Superman" play. I have a sticker of that play on the back window of my car. That's how much I LOVE that play! No offense all game, or next to none. You knew someone was going to make a play that would seal the deal. I don't know that I've ever seen a player control a game from the DB position like Roy Williams did. A BEAST!!!
I’ll never forget Zeke’s TD run🤩🤩
You’ll also never forget the 52-24 beat down.
O-H
@@coreyorr3819 I forgot it. It wasn't really a beat down considering half of the OSU defense was out with covid. I think if it was a more evenly matched game, it wouldn't have been such a "beatdown".
The perfect way to describe college football. Love this.
I’m so glad you did the end of the 1980 holiday bowl for BYU, pretty much anything else would be wrong (beck to Harlene is close)
Zekes run against Alabama was so iconic I miss that man
I think Miami’s most iconic play was that deflection against Nebraska in the 1984 Orange Bowl that gave Miami their first title
Without a doubt!
The school wanted to drop football in the late 70s but Coach Schnellenberger promised a title within five years. That 1983 season was the fifth year. Not to mention they upset what was considered the greatest CFB team ever, at the time.
The Ed Reed play in 2001 is iconic, but Miami was ahead 12-7 when he scored only padding the final margin. And even if they lose at BC that day, they still likely play for a title since Nebraska & Oregon also had one loss each.
That G** Damn BSU play over my Sooners. That play still gets under my skin to this day
That was such an incredible game. Having no horse in the race, I loved every second.
A lot has happened to Tennessee since the stumble and fumble but that’s what made us National Champions.
I cant be the only person that heard Craig Ostrander and immediately thought of NCAA 14 RTG
Yeah, that's the same guy. He was on the dev team so they put him in as a generic HS player. Never forgot him.
How about a compilation of each teams most embarrassing moment or play? I’d love to watch that
Boise State missing 3 consecutive less than 20 yard FGs to choke a 21 point lead and taking them out of a national Championship defineatly pretty high on that list……. They don’t miss just one of them and college football could be such a drastically different sport today…..
1. They’d be undefeated
2. They’d have to take Oregon out of the championship
3. It would be Auburn vs Boise State in the title game
4. Boise State would be statistically the most difficult team Auburn ever played all season, with very limited answer to their offense
5. Boise State would be only team Auburn ever played with experience playing against a running QB
6. Boise State wins that game or even keeps it close, CFP is probably not 4 teams….. in fact it’s probably an 8 team playoff even earlier than 2013.
7. They win that game the entire landscape changes…..
A FG has never had such significant implications on the sport before
I'll nominate one for Oklahoma State. They gave up a 33 yard 2 point conversion to Colorado in 2001.
This has to be the greatest football video on TH-cam. This is too epic.
I think Tommy Frazier’s run against Florida is Nebraska’s most iconic play ever. The man literally broke 10 plus tackles but that Johnny Rogers return is up there. In recent history it’s gotta be the Ron Kellog Hail Mary to Westercamp against Northwestern.
What a awesome video I got goosebumps watching some of the clips..
First off, thank you for this amazing video. You do great work & this is the greater of your work.
Disagreements, 3 stand out. Nebraska, The U, & Ohio State. Nebraska would be Tommie Frazier’s run, The U would be when they beat Nebraska on that failed 2 point for the chip in ‘84, & OSU would be “Holy Buckeye” or the final play of the 2002 title game. But yea, that’s nitpicking lol.
Epic compilation. You also nailed Purdue's best moment...kudos!
I don't care who your favorite team is, that Appalachian State blocked FG and that Cal-Stanford ending both got to be on the Mount Rushmore of all-time CFB moments.
Also, Johnny Rodgers' punt return against Oklahoma and Tommie Frazier's run against Florida in the Fiesta Bowl are kind of 1A/1B on Nebraska's most iconic plays. Hard for me to choose between one or the other tbh.
I'd add the Flea Kicker from the 97 Missouri game and Crouch's big TD catch from Mike Stuntz in the 2001 Oklahoma game to that list as well.
@@DamonNomad82yes along with Boiste State 🗽💙🐎and as for the 4th...too many are so worthy
The Appalachian State Mountaineers taming my Michigan Wolverines was the watershed moment in college football, where suddenly years later it was the norm to see smaller G5 schools compete with Power conferences 😏😳
