A little question for all:

Earlier today I posted about watching the GT game back in 2006 in its entirety and just in awe of how dominating a game it was on our part. Besides the point, I remember one play in that game left me with my mouth absolutely wide open while in the midst of screaming fans in DV. That play was CJ's 50 yard TD catch with the two jukes on the sideline. That was right in front of our seats and I still can't comprehend that move.
Anyways, do y'all have a play that you remember seeing in person that left your mouth wide open in disbelief? I tried to think of others and while there may have been some nominees, nothing can compare to the reaction I had after CJ's TD that night. Another one was against North Texas when he ran the opening kick back for a touchdown (2009 I believe). I was more smiling in disbelief after that one as CJ usually left me speechless with his gift. Thoughts?

I was at that game I told my wife if they hit this FG the game is over. I sat in the rain for 3 quarters ready to go but the 4th was a good time.

players & fans knew it . . .
Was undeniable.
VERY rarely have I felt that way as a Clemson fan . . .
felt like being a tarhole basketball fan in the dean dome when hansoffmebro single-handedly brought them back from being down to us by 50 with 30 seconds to go . . . the tarholes just knew they were going to win and there was nothing we could do to stop it.

I was in the South stands for that one with a sightline directly through the side of the goalposts. Thought it went in. It didn't. I still don't understand that one.

The quick snap handoff to James Davis at FSU is one I remember off the top of my head.
Also, the Gardner catch left me in shock.

DeAndre McDaniel plowing over Christian Ponder. Saw CP step in front of him on the return and thought, well here comes a huge collision.
Then Nuke's catch on 4th down in the Peach Bowl. Clutch!
The hook and ladder play vs Auburn in the CFA kickoff was cool.
But Emory Smith's run @ uscjr where he dragged a coot player 15 yards was stellar.

all game winning efforts by a Tiger. That entire game against the chickens is available on youtube. For those too young to remember it in person, I strongly recommend watching the replay keeping in mind it had been years since the Tigers had gone bowling. Jerry Butler made an incredible grab at the coop to break the chicken's collective hearts.

Plus Clemson lost that game. How about Terry Allen's 3rd and long run against Georgia in 1987 to set up Treadwell's FG with 2 seconds left?

Just last year. Sammy trucking the Uga safety and turning a well defended short hitch pass into a long TD. That play made me spill beer I NEVER spill beer. Sammy returning the KO against Maryland and sealing our come from behind in 2012 was freaky good.
