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

[Bearcat]

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...

Yes, that was before Bettman really ruined the NHL. Who knew an already-struggling 'major' sport needed to keep a good relationship with ESPN to stay successful?

The playoffs start this week, right after bull riding and before the bass fishing marathon, so get to one of the 7 homes with Versus and watch!!
