Without including OSU, what are some games (it can include any NCAA sport) that are the most memorable to you, and you'll likely go to your grave remembering the details of the game? As a note, I did not watch the Boise State vs. Oklahoma game. One of my life's biggest regrets. 

I'll start:

  1. 2008 Texas vs. Texas Tech - I was 12 years old and my friend was over to watch the game. I still remember the Texas Tech D-line with their faces completely painted as a scare tactic. In my memory, this is the 1st game I remember watching that ended on a "kind of" Hail Mary
  2. 2005 Ohio vs. Pitt - I grew up in Athens. And boy that town nearly ceased to exist after this game. Frank the Tank Solich in town, and an absolute perfect ending. Pick-6 in OT. I was only 9 years old at the time, and I thought OU just won the Super Bowl. Every kid in my school was at the game packed onto the Hill. There was so much local build-up around this game, that is still feels surreal that OU was able to get it done. 
  3. 2005 USC vs. Fresno State - 9 years old and staying up until the early morning hours to watch this game. At that young age, I became mesmerized with Reggie Bush. He easily became my favorite non-Buckeye, and I'd continue rooting for him throughout his NFL career, sanctions be damned.
