Your single favorite play in MSU football history

[Maroonthirteen]

I told my wife..."overtime. They will take a knee.". When RMiller dropped back. I was surprised. When we made the pick, it was euphoric.

Nickoe recovering Bo's fumble has to be up there.

Jamerson Love recovered the fumble, but Nickoe did come from one end of the field to the other to make the strip.......On a gimp knee no less.

1.) Banks' first pick 6 of Tebow in '09. I knew as soon as he snatched it, he was gone.

2.) The goal line stand verses LSU in DV last season. (That entire game was a favorite, really. We finally got the 800lb Purple and Gold gorilla off of our backs.)

3.) AD TD run verses Houston in '09. That game still chaps my hind end.

4.) The int first play from the line verses the Barn last season then the subsequent Bear TD that followed.

5.) Perkins in 2010 EB where he ran all over the bears in Oxford.

Too many more to even mention.

ETA: OM having the TD negated in 2011 EB and then Barry Brunetti getting annihilated a play later as the clock ran out. Perfect end to a rainy night.

I'm going with "Georgia- Nikoe Whitley blowing up the Georgia RB at the goal line causing what looked like a TD to be a fumble that of course Whitley recovered. Because Nikoe." as quoted from Todd.

That play was so big and such a turning point to me. We started the season 1-2. With that Georgia win, we went on to a 9 win season after what had previously been many insufferable seasons. After that play, I thought we can win this game. Also the first time in my life we beat Georgia at Davis Wade.

Hard to choose just one, but I can lump 4 plays into an elite category.
1. Dak's TD run against LSU. We'll be talking about that one for decades.
2. AJ's pick-6 vs Bama.
3. 1980 fumble recovery vs Bama.
4. 1999 Pick and Kick.

I remember it well. John Bond was undefeated vs LSU.

Glen Young was probably our best return guy ever. Also a pinch runner in baseball.

Is that game online on the SEC..whatever they're calling it? Re-watching that would be great in these, the offs.

I wasn't trying to be a dick, man. Sorry if it came off that way. lol. It was indeed a remarkable play by Whitley though when you consider that he was basically playing with an injury that would have sidelined most and had surgery shortly thereafter. The man literally got from one end of the field to the other and was still able to strip the ball. With the kind of pain and impaired mobility he was dealing with, that's some want to.

Nickoe will always be one of my favorite Dawgs.

[CadaverDawg]

Not sure if these are "all time" favorites, but a few plays that stand out in history to me are...

1) Madkin to Sirmones. That play made the kick-pick a possibility.

2) the screen passes against Michigan and Ole Miss the 1st Gator Bowl year (I love saying "1st"), where Perkins caught the screens and our WR's made decleater blocks

SEC Digital. Don't know man. I'll have to go look.

Was it Rece Davis who yelled: "Man wide open. CJ Sirmones. TOUCHDOWN!!!"

Then when we kicked off to Deuce, you can hear Corso going "No, no, no...." lol. It was awesome how excited the color guys got for that game.

[Pollodawg]

Who got the call for the '99 EB?

It was Corso, Herbstreit, and I think Rece Davis, but it may have been Fowler. They were pulling for MSU so hard by the end of the game.

No, it was Tirico. ESPN still had him doing college football then.

Hmm....Thanks, man.

Nah, dude. Glad you caught it.

Glen Young one of my all-time favorite Bulldogs and one of the earliest I could actually remember. Him, Bond and Haddix. I was only a second grader and my Dad had taken me to my first game that year.. I wasn't at this one but had just been a couple of weeks earlier, a 24-21 win over Auburn. My college football life began that year.

Norwood's 37 yard TD run to beat Florida with 33 seconds left is up there

My junior year. Homecoming at Vegas verse Auburn. State down by 30 points. On third down Ballard decides to punt. Yes third down. We sucked that bad. I was one of 25 students left in the student section with my date. The Jim Beam was flowing only to make it better. Following the punt Auby scores three plays later.
