Chicken Soup Bowl. Wrong team won, but it was a landmark game in the career of a QB who many consider the GOAT.
Here's a list of a few (some may be repeats apologies, I haven't read the whole thread). These are from my old NCAA games college classics mode.
December 19th 1980 SMU-BYU Holiday Bowl- Known as the "Miracle Bowl". Monster Comeback from BYU. Down 45-25 with 4 minutes left. BYU had a huge comeback to win the game 46-45 on a last second hail mary.
November 20th 1982 Cal-Stan The Play- The miracle kick return where the band runs on the field. We all know this one don't we?
November 23rd 1983 BYU-Mizzu Holiday Bowl- BYU down late calls a run play, running back throws it back to Steve Young who runs for the winning td to give BYU a 21-17 win. Young scored a rare combo of running receiving and passing tds.
January 1st 1984 Miami-Nebraska Orange Bowl- The game that started a dynasty. A classic back and fourth that came down to nebraska scoring late to tie it. Tom Osborne decides to go for the win with a 2-pointer. It fails and canes win their first national title.
November 23rd 1984 Boston College-Miami The Hail Flutie- Doug Flutie gives Boston College a huge win over their rival with a last second monster Hail Mary. Flutie goes on to win Heisman.
November 30th 1985 Auburn-Alabama Iron Bowl- Known as "the kick", this was one of the greatest iron bowls ever. Great back and fourth game. Tigers held a 23-22 lead late. Alabama needs a 52 yarder to win, the kicker makes the field goal as time expires to win it. Bammers go wild :P.
January 2nd 1987 Miami-Penn State Fiesta Bowl- The unofficial first "national title game" pitted number 1 Miami and number 2 Penn state. Miami shows up to the game in military fatigues, brash and confident, Penn state buttoned up and disciplined. Game was actually moved to prime time on jan 2nd to give it stand alone time. Penn State upsets Miami, picking off Vinny Testaverde to win the title! This game began the scramble for an annual 1 vs 2 matchup. (also, halftime show featured an interview with Ronald Reagan).
Will be continued.
Oct 6 1990 Colorado vs Missouri 5th down
Sept 16 2006 Oregon Oklahoma on side controversy
also that day 7 games involving top 25 ranked teams playing each other (I dont remember a day since that had that many ranked matchups)
That game won't register with anybody except for ND/Michigan fans.
You're probably right, but I never get tired of watching the last 1:21 of that game.
