Sports Illustrated has its opinions anyway. Some of these are very memorable. College Footballs Greatest Plays

Lots of great plays. For me nothing beats the excitement, improbability, comedy and overall entertainment of Stanford-Cal 1982. 2nd place to the combination of an LSU win and the swing of emotions from being so happy to rush the field, then realizing that you lost.
I'll never forget that George Teague play in the Sugar, never. Damndest thing I've ever seen in a football game, just about, and absolutely awesome to boot.
Wait, Ronnie Prude ignoring instructions from the sideline and blowing coverage equals one of college football's "greatest plays"? Reggie Bush illegally shoving Matt Leinart across the goal? Is this some sort of joke or something? Damn, talk about a reach.
I have to agree, and I say this without any USC-hating venom. That was a crazy finish to one of the best games I've ever seen, but a one-yard TD plunge (with an illegal push) is not that great of a "play." I think a FAR greater play that should be in its place is the 4th and long pass Leinart completed to keep that drive going.
wow, a lot of SEC games in there. not through it yet but seems like nearly all of them have been SEC so far either one team or two
No doubt about it. A one yard plunge isn't exactly normally the stuff of legend. Hell, OSU's overtime TD over Miami was probably a more memorable play. I actually thought the Russell to Doucet TD v. ASU was a bigger play than the Bluegrass Miracle. Less blind luck, and the win was immensely important to a lot of people that were struggling.
