Where does last night rank in the greatest games you've seen?
 

I'd say it's probably in the Top Ten for me, if not the top five.

Nothing yet tops the Rams winning the Super Bowl by a yard in my lifetime. That's probably the best game I've ever seen. And hell, as good as last night was, I don't think it was the best game of 2008, as I think the Giants ousting the Patriots was better.

Other games that have thrilled me: Jordan winning championship #6 with his final shot, Vince Young vs. Matt Leinart in the Rose Bowl, the five-set marathon between Samprass and Agassi (one of the last times they played), Tiger Woods winning the Masters by 18 strokes...

Just remembered Kerri Strug, which is probably a Top Five moment, gymnastics-haters be damned.

Oh, and Baggio blowing the World Cup by sending the PK sailing over the crossbar.

Tops eva!

KU over Memphis
Royals over Stl
Danny over OK

the top spot will always be reserved for the chiefs though.

Wow good ones

for me the Rockies comeback in game 163 down by 3 runs to the Padres in the 13th to win and make the playoffs was huge

Montana v Elway

Rams v Tits superbowl

Montana v Buddy Ryan

Montana v the Steelers ( the 4th down TD pass to Tim Barnett)

1988 Danny Manning v OU

I'm not sure where to rank it, but its up there...and thats high praise from me.

Memphis basically had the game locked up, but KU refused to die until the fat lady had removed her corset & viking helmet.

I would imagine that this game goes down as one of the very best ever.

Games I'd rank above this one:

Texas-USC NC game.
Boise St.-Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl
Florida-South Carolina 2006 game where the Gators blocked two kicks, one being a FG as the clock expired (probably elevated since I was there and my heart nearly popped out of my chest).
Chiefs-Donks - the battle between Montana and Elway capped by the Willie Davis TD.
Chiefs-Raiders when Grbac hit Rison in the endzone to win it late.

As an Iowa fan, I watched last nights game just wondering how in the hell does
Coach Lichlighter ever get recruits like Rush or Chalmers to even consider Iowa.

The pure athletisism that was on display last night was just incredible. To see
players go up for a driving shot, and then delay in the air for a fraction of a second to get a cleaner shot...or for a player to go up for a shot with the ball in one hand, and then shooting it with the other hand ....thats sic for this balding white hair middle aged
man to think that guys are that ATHLETIC. It was an incrdeble game to watch and
enjoy. Congrats Jay hawks. Iowa has a long log long long way to go.

Best finish ever.

But last nights was a pretty good one too.

Easily the best basketball game I have ever watched. Hands down, bar none.

Without question, the greatest Final Four in KU basketball history, Big 12 basketball history, and one of the top 3 in NCAA history.

1) Northwest Missouri State vs. Carson-Newman, 1999 DII NC game. 58-52 in 4 OTs after NWMSU outscored CN 30-16 in the 4th quarter. Nothing comes close.


2) Kansas vs. Memphis

3) Game 5 of the Avalanche/Red Wings in 2002. Peter Forsberg, overtime.
4) Game 2 of the Avalanche/Red Wings in 2002. Chris Drury, overtime.
5) Game 7 of the Avalanche/Devils. Ray Bourque's Cup. Very high on emotion, but not that great of a game.

There's also that one college hockey NC game in 2000 or 2001 where North Dakota (iirc) held off a 5-3 in the last couple of minutes to win (it would be higher, but with no personal ties it's almost forgotten). The Mile High Miracle, Patriots/Rams, Giants/Rams, Boise State/OU and several other bowl games that I can't think of because I'm supposed to be working and not spending all my time reading about the NC... :D

That game made (any of) our games vs Texas seem boring. I had to piss for probably 30 minutes, but couldn't leave! Plus I went through 2 inhalers...

OH VEY! how could I forget those?

This is my favorite. I'm a little biased though.
