With all the hype, big name players, streaks on the line and overall game itself, there will never be another National Championship game like the Texas USC.
Yeah, that was awesome - back and forth - then SC scored TD's and UT scored a couple field goals but you never thought they were out of it. And when they got that defensive stop I knew Vince would win it (BTW I'm a Hog fan - lol). If you remember that season, both UT and SC absolutely dominated everyone so it really was Clash of the Titans!!
Vince Youngs performance against USC in the greatest I've ever seen in a college football championship game. Over 500 yards total offense. It was spectacular.
But people still talk about the knee. As a clemson fan, trust me, all I hear to this day is “illegal pick play”. I was a freshman, having only gone to 3 football games total, when I watched the UT-USC game. That, and the Geriatric Bowl, got me hooked on CFB.
The team that got hosed the most was Duke. Despite one of the players likely being down and one of the “backwards laterals” not being so backwards, there was literally a player off the bench, on the field with his helmet off for the last twenty yards of that TD run. Play should’ve been dead there and Duke should’ve one. That was one of the worst officiating jobs I have ever seen.
Hello! Tommie Frazier's run in the 1995 National Championship? Johnny Rodgers punt return against OU? Man, Woman and Child how could you not have those on this list.
Being a Texas fan, witnessing Vince Young score that touchdown in arguably the best college football game ever played was one of the most exciting things I’d ever seen in sports.
Johnny "The Jet" Rodgers' return touchdown against Oklahoma, Cory Schlesinger's two touchdown runs against Miami, Tommie Frazier's touchdown run against Florida, The Miracle in Missouri and Jordan Westercamp's touchdown against Northwestern
And yet, it’s great to be a Georgia Bulldog my brother! I’ll never apologize for barely winning. We’ve been on the wrong side for far too long. It’s our turn now!
This is the greatest sport to ever exist. It's so amazing that a byproduct of its own existence is the NFL and other pro leagues. It's not a minor league but the major league.
Not having Utah beat Alabama in the 2008 Sugar Bowl is criminal. Utah at the time was the only group of 5 team to go fully undefeated and they probably could’ve won the title that year.
@@lukeslc-xd8ds what do you mean? If you’re talking like currently, I guess? They’ve struggled in the rose bowl for a couple years but this was constrained by opt outs and late game injuries from key players. But they’re highly consistent. They’ve won big games before though 04 and 08 were highly notable seasons. No one had us winning those years but they won pretty big BCS bowls going undefeated too.
All these peeps wanna boo-hoo about their team. This isn't about teams at all; it's about great plays. No one is a victim here & no one cares about your team & its history, W/L record, or bad calls. Great plays. That said, VY rightfully deserves the Heisman Trophy that RB had to forfeit & eventually return. VY made Madison HS, the Hiram Clarke/Brentwood folks & all of H-town.proud. "...and goodness shall prevail over evil."
I wish sports videos never had titles which include the phrase "...in history". Because they never go back more than a few decades and actually IGNORE most of the history of the sport. Same thing here, unfortunately.
Let’s just talk about the first clip, this might be the perfect American football play, the national championship on the line, don’t get 5 yards and the best team in the history of the sport (until 2019 LSU) is gonna win another championship, get 5 yards or more it’s 1st and goal and the window is still very much alive, it’s touchdown or nothing, and there’s only 26 seconds left, so big time players have to make big time plays, so the underdog Texas longhorns best player takes matters into his own hands and delivers Texas the chip on a do or die play. You can’t write a script better than that.
I always appreciate anyone who takes the time to put these videos together...another wonderful job but not sure why Texas A&M vs Tennessee is included....that's a fairly routine interception....some amazing choices and well done but not sure what made that one special
Central Michigan has the "greatest" moments against Oklahoma State, thanks to the error. The referees give Central Michigan the football untimed after Oklahoma State penalized for intentional grounding, the game is supposed to end on a offensive penalties not defense, the refs and crew who got involved got suspended. Miami is not supposed to have the greatest moments either against Duke, because of the referees made 4 errors, knee on ground prior to releasing the football, illegal block in the back was penalty and refs say no, no penalty for a player leaving the bench, Duke was supposed to win, the refs cost them, and got suspended afterwards.
I was at the game, such a load of crap. When I see that play or (let’s be real) the Cal Stanford kick return it just kills a list. That kick return would’ve been rightfully blown dead or overturned about 47 times today
college football > any other sport
It’s minor league for the NFL
Wrong.
@@ayadali9112 nope. American Football on top.
@@irvingr.fatback886 depends on who you ask. College football environments far better than NFL. Regardless, American football>

Boise State beating Oklahoma in the bowl game with the final play being the Statue of Liberty play... greatest game I've ever seen!
"He's going for the corner." Still gives me chills.
Where was Johnny Rodgers' return in 1971? I mean it was the Game of the Century.
Miracle in Missouri 1997
Matt Davidson catch
I will always remember the Kick Six. My dad and I were flipping through channels and found this just as the kicking team was going onto the field.

16:20 the way it bounces to him perfectly in stride really makes it look like that’s how they drew it up

3 missed calls IIRC. Both teams were horrendous that year, so it was just some Globetrotter-level entertainment for the reels.
Those 2 plays that included Nebraska don’t even make the top 50 of greatest plays in Nebraska history alone lol
Hello! Tommie Frazier's run in the 1995 National Championship? Johnny Rodgers punt return against OU? Man, Woman and Child how could you not have those on this list.

Nebraska eeking out a win over McNeese State is one of the Greatest Moments in College Football History LOL
8:51 The Blue Devils will forever regret squibbing that kick. It's in every single one of these compilations
Best game in a championship hands down Texas VS USC
Hearing Rod Bramlett call the Kick Six.....emotions!
Johnny "The Jet" Rodgers' return touchdown against Oklahoma, Cory Schlesinger's two touchdown runs against Miami, Tommie Frazier's touchdown run against Florida, The Miracle in Missouri and Jordan Westercamp's touchdown against Northwestern
I’m guessing this guy is a Missouri fan from the lack of Nebraska plays lol
Couldn't agree more - those 5 were truly "great" moments, and some of the included plays in this video were merely "good".
150 years of history and they show Michigans worst moments. Unreal
lol i never noticed they put up the wrong final score for a quick second during lsu vs. tucky
As a Georgia fan, I’m reminded how many horrible things happened on the long road to back-to-back national championships
And yet, it’s great to be a Georgia Bulldog my brother! I’ll never apologize for barely winning. We’ve been on the wrong side for far too long. It’s our turn now!
We’re going to 3 peat my Dawg!!!
@@roberthulen Delusional but funny, LOL. Their luck will run out.
White people need to get away from football and basketball and watch hockey and baseball
As a Michigan fan it makes me sad to see us on the wrong end of 5 of these
UGA fan bro I get it
This is from 2005 or later. Michigan has plenty of monumental moments, like the 1969 upset of OSU
Denard Robinson to Roundtree for the win against Notre Dame under the lights at the Big House should have been on here.
Same as uga fan even though Kirby the first assistant to do that to nick but whatever
Couldn’t even put the Kelee Ringo pick 6?
I remember celebrating when vince scored on usc in the championship game 😂
One of the most remembered games ever for me. You could see the momentum for Texas ESPECIALLY Vince young.
"Touchdown Alabama wins" not even a Bama and it gives me chills everytime
This is the greatest sport to ever exist. It's so amazing that a byproduct of its own existence is the NFL and other pro leagues. It's not a minor league but the major league.
12:51 that “oh my gosh!” Will always be funny to me
"He's going for the cornerrrr, hes got it!" Chills
Great moments in Michigan Choking History!!!😂🤦🏼♂️👍🏼
Most overrated program in college football history.
It's today and Michigan still sucks.
@@Daniel-cu8ztdelusional take
No other sport is more electrifying
I love this game! The Cal/Stanford return is probably the most memorable in my lifetime. The band is on the field!!
the vince young game was one of the most impressive performances Id ever seen
Not having Kelvin Benjamin's 2013 Rose Bowl catch on here is criminal
That Miami lateral was some Madden coding ass bullshit 😂
Nebraska going for 2 and the win was a great call. I’m so happy they failed.
AWESOME CHANNEL DUDE
Not having Utah beat Alabama in the 2008 Sugar Bowl is criminal. Utah at the time was the only group of 5 team to go fully undefeated and they probably could’ve won the title that year.
It seems utah can't win the big ones.

5:46 And this is why tackling drills are important, boys and girls.
Vince Young was the best player in the planet that year. 🤘🤘
Naw just that night
@@bloodvillain31Bush got stripped of his Heisman. Young was second in the voting. Like I said he was the best player on the planet that year!
@@Metalhead4EVR u was scared too that night look at what was made after
There is something so unmatched to watching the refs fall in a moment of pure chaos and college football history😂😂😂
I don’t like Texas and I despise USC, but, when I think college football, I hear this call from Keith Jackson in my head.
Watching ttun lose in the most bizarre ways......priceless!
Tommie Frazier vs Florida? Great highlights on this video but that play probably should have been be included.
The night the lights went out in Georgia, as bama has done several times 😂😂😂😂
I had Texas on the ml.and the over thanks Pete for taking Bush off the field in 4th down to give the ball to lendale white 👍👍
There goes Davis!
The one by the Canes shouldn't be here
That CMU OK State should've had the 30 second runoff for the penalty. But it was still a great play.
I think I bet the wrong side of every one of these games lol
The Baylor Vs OSu Big 12 champion ship game should be on this list!!! Frfrfr
Don’t understand why 2011 Michigan vs Notre Dame Under The Lights game highlight wasn’t on here.
Beck to Harline to beat Utah in the closing seconds belongs on this list.
Gotta show the WVU orange bowl 🤞🏾
The Clemson play was the most egregious pick play I have ever seen. Their natty should be revoked
Dude you gotta show the Kentucky coach reaction on they LSU hail may
Go Dawgs!!!
Yo what year was that game on when Baylor ran into the marching band on the field? 😂😂
That was Cal you uncultured swine!
No flea kicker? That’s one moment missing from this list.
Apparently college football only began 30 years ago.
Jesus is coming back soon and we need to share the gospel before it’s too late. Jesus loves you so much and is with you forever, no matter what ❤

I'm an OKST homer, I admit, but that final play should have never happened per the rules.
The Boise state fiesta bowl needs a movie or something
Before the transfer portal. When college football meant something.. I never missed a Saturday, now I don't watch.
They are only the greatest moments from a neutral perspective. If your team was on the losing end than these are the worst moments ever 😂
Oct 15, 2022. Tennessee vs Bama
Still waiting for the refs to throw a holding flag on Texas. 😂
Bob Griffin Kendall Wright. I remember those losers.
How about when the Refs won
The game for Colorado by giving them 5 downs against Missouri !
There's some REAL underwhelming plays in here for them to be considered "greatest moments" in history.
Fr not a single moment from the 2017 rose bowl between okla and Uga that’s just one example
Just need the clip of VY slamming his knee to the ground and the cheating refs refusing to call him down.
Let’s just talk about the first clip, this might be the perfect American football play, the national championship on the line, don’t get 5 yards and the best team in the history of the sport (until 2019 LSU) is gonna win another championship, get 5 yards or more it’s 1st and goal and the window is still very much alive, it’s touchdown or nothing, and there’s only 26 seconds left, so big time players have to make big time plays, so the underdog Texas longhorns best player takes matters into his own hands and delivers Texas the chip on a do or die play. You can’t write a script better than that.
This is a fan test. If you don’t click like, you’re not a fan. If they showed this video every Sunday, that would be my church.
Boise State -- Oklahoma, the best game is college football history. MOOC
1990 USC 45 UCLA
I always appreciate anyone who takes the time to put these videos together...another wonderful job but not sure why Texas A&M vs Tennessee is included....that's a fairly routine interception....some amazing choices and well done but not sure what made that one special
Why wasn't Arkansas vs #1 LSU game ending play. No time on clock.
no cal stanford of 1982 what a joke the greatest kick return ever the band is on the field
Fumbleruski should be on here
Yes I am biased but should have had 1976 Oklahoma vs Nebraska and 1977 Oklahoma vs Ohio State
Was Johnny Rodgers in here?? Maybe I missed it
KENTUCKY 30, LSU 27 FINAL
HAHA
War eagle!!
9:37
How do you miss A&M vs LSU?
I AINT no MSU or OSU fan but Michigan fumbling the punt snap will forever be funny to me 😂😂😂
U should’ve added music to this and maybe lose the commentators
12:47
Greatest moments in a very short and biased history. Two negative plays for FSU and not a single positive play? WTF?

You should have included Michigan/Notre Dame 2011
Nebraska beating McNeese? 🤣
Who is 21 at 6:46?
5:18
It's nothing short of criminal that you cut the Cal Bears commentator off going berserk.
What smuck made this list?
No Bo Jackson?
Don’t like Michigan and uga I see 😂😂
The final play of the Central Michigan at Oklahoma State game was illegal. The refs all got suspended after that.
I was at the game, such a load of crap. When I see that play or (let’s be real) the Cal Stanford kick return it just kills a list. That kick return would’ve been rightfully blown dead or overturned about 47 times today
Nevada vs UCLA back in the day look it up and tell me that's not the greatest football game ever!
WHERE IS TULANE V USC
no one gives a shit
People need to stop praising that fake FG by MSU against ND because they clearly didn’t get the play off. In time. No one talks about.
He hiked it right as it hit 0. It’s too close to tell.
