Past games you love to watch

[MrNimbus]

With there being so many replays available on youtube. I was wondering what some of your favorite non ND games are?
Mine off the top of my head are:
-2005 rose bowl
-Osu-uf/lsu national championships
-Pretty much any oregon game from the 2010s/oregon-mich 2007
-colorado-nebraska 2001
-any BK loss at lsu
Any recommendations?

Super recent but I watched the entire Stanford/Colorado game last year. That was fun.

2013 National Championship game.

 

[Greenore]

2007 Fiesta Bowl. It had everything.

The 2020 match with ND beating Clemson revived a lot of memories of that Fiesta Bowl game. Lots of back and forth and tons of emotions. Took me a few days to process. Great football! Thanks

Cheers and Go Irish!!

 

[T-Boone]

2013 Iron Bowl - at least the last play.

73 sugar bowl game vs bama as the irish win the game and title going undefeated

Beat me to it. Ice water in Clements's veins staring down that rush. Ara had huge coconuts making that call given the circumstance.

I rewatch the Florida State Notre Dame game from 2014 about two weeks ago. I think that game was probably one of the biggest games that derailed that whole season.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

ND related, the 14 and 17 bowl games vs LSU are a fun watch.

Non ND, the 07 Fiesta bowl and the end of UM/MSU in 15.

 

[dublinirish]

2007 Fiesta Bowl. It had everything.

i had this game downloaded from a torrent on an old iRiver video player i used to have and I would watch it all the time lol

 

[MKEagle]

2022 Tennessee vs Alabama

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

TCU win over Michigan in the playoffs

He asked for football games, not pornography. Cmon, man.

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

Super recent but I watched the entire Stanford/Colorado game last year. That was fun.

Colorado/CSU last year was also a riot

 

[IRISHDODGER]

2006 ND @ Sparty in the rain.
Snow Bowl PSU @ ND

 

[Katzenboyer]

For ND, I always find myself re-watching the 2012 OU game in Norman. That was a blast.

Non-ND, the 2005 Rose Bowl was great and the 2015 Sugar Bowl (Zeke Elliott's OSU versus the Bama juggernaut) was one of the best college games I've seen, even though I hate the Suckeyes.

 

[Irish#1]

ND related, the 14 and 17 bowl games vs LSU are a fun watch.

Non ND, the 07 Fiesta bowl and the end of UM/MSU in 15.

That was a most excellent day. Waking towards the stadium we stopped to watch the end on a tailgaters TV. Then we watched our lads spank USC!

 

[NDBoiler]

Not a particular game I like to watch, but I came across a fairly obscure YouTube channel that has multiple videos of “My favorite college football plays”. Person’s name/channel is Colton Denning. Lots of great highlights in those from the past 25 years or so.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

That was a most excellent day. Waking towards the stadium we stopped to watch the end on a tailgaters TV. Then we watched our lads spank USC!

I wound in the ND student section that night and watched it on some random students phone. We high fived. I sometimes wonder what that kid is up to

I bought the DVD set of their 2012 undefeated regular season. I watched the hell out of them during covid. I was actually at the pitt game. It took years off my life.

 

[BeatSC]

Very few games I’m interested in besides those that include an ND win. Then if of the rose bowl with Texas and USC is a beauty.
I’d like to see what a fav from each decade beginning in the 60’s. So many to choose from. It will require some thought. Mine will all be against USC. Duh

 

[KMac151993]

The best regular season game I have ever witnessed in my 30+ years of addictively watching college football is the '93 ND/F$U tilt...granted the OP said NON-ND game...but still...the best post-season game I have ever witnessed is the '05 Rose Bowl.

A sneaky...albeit a wild game to watch is the 2000 Northwestern/scUM game. It is in the same vein as the '02 Colorado/Nebraska game.

 

[Henges24]

Assuming NFL is legal here, I’m going every game Barry Sanders rushes for over 100.

 

[ulukinatme]

2006 ND @ Sparty in the rain.
Snow Bowl PSU @ ND

Both these are great games, but the first is super underrated. That also produced the Mike Valenti rant that went down in infamy as one of the greatest on-air sports meltdowns in history. That game was an instant ESPN Classic, I remember rewatching it at a bar at our company Christmas party that year because everything else at the party was lame.

 

[ulukinatme]

2005 USC game, although I usually skip the end.
2005 Tennessee, just a great game with tons of big plays, and it plays like a Zbikowski highlight reel with two fucking TDs by the man and almost had a third!

2015 USC I've watched a number of times, love watching Fuller embarrass that secondary.
2012 Stanford, but mostly the finale
2020 Clemson
2014 LSU
2008 Michigan with 2014 being a close 2nd. 2008 was fun, I remember being there as rain and water were cascading down the stadium steps. Michigan couldn't hold onto the ball for shit all day. It was magical.
