I don't even know where to start...

Putting 200+ yards on the ground against Texas - the so called best rushing D in the nation.

Running the corners on Miami in the NC game - all that crap talk prior to the game, easily one of my favorite Alabama games, as tidentrue suggests above.

Have you seen the Documentary about that "The Takeaway"? Really great stuff.



Some of my favorites...

"The Run in the Swamp" (Shaun Alexander in OT in '99)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DyPK5hYfbY

"Rocky Block" (Cody's blocked FG against Tennessee in '09)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5El03CbLam0

"Rocky Stop" (Roman Harpers forced fumble then Brodie's heave to DJ Hall, plus kick)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBGbnUAqfqc

"The Catch" (This one still pisses me off because I didnt get to see it live. I was a senior in high school and was working at Movie Gallery at that point, they made me work that day. I was listening to it on the radio as it happened and got like 100 calls from ppl with the "DID YOU SEE THAT CATCH?!" Had to wait until I got home that night and watch Sportscenter to see it).

"The Sack" (Even tho I wasnt even alive, that hit is just nasty)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_p-UNbQsCE

"The Strip" (You definitley gotta see the documentary "The Takeaway" about this. Its so great. Everyone played Willie Gaston for the long pass to Lamar Thomas but it was actually Teagues fault because Gaston was supposed to be playing underneath with Teague helping out over the top but Teague was as he called it "loafing on the play" and got caught inside. He said that the strip was 100% a result of a combination of fear and panic. Panic of letting that big play happen in what could have been a turnaround play and fear of what Coach Stallings & Oliver would do/say to him when he got on the sideline. Stallings said he doesnt quite know what he would have said to Teague but "we would have had a talk" lol Teague said that Stallings still told him that if he hadnt screwed up in the first place he wouldnt have had to make a great play like that.

"the Championship drive"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6JZlE7dp98

I really could to this all day tho lol too many to pick.
 
There is no way to narrow down the list, but here are SOME of the favs:
The Sack ( biscuit levels the ND QB )
The Catch ( behind the USM defender's head )
The Strip ( showing UM who's faster and better )
Dareus taking it away from Longhorns and scoring
Richardson's stop-on-a-dime run vs Ole Miss
The AJ to Yeldon screen vs LSU
Snake's run in the mud vs the barn
The Stand ( stuffing Penn St on the Goal line )
etc, etc...

Great history = too many great plays to list.
ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!
