Just letting my mind wander through the years as we await Auburn, I am relishing some great Tiger moments. Here are 10, that come to mind. Would love to hear yours, its great to have grown up a Tiger. God bless you all!
10. Wayne Simmons interception against FSU in 1989 that he returned for a TD! Revenge for 1988
9.Stopping Notre Dame on the 2 point conversion in the driving rain
8.Charlie Whitehurst lighting up the chickens in 2003! Touchdown, touchdown, touchdown!!!!
7.Homer Jordon to Perry Tuttle in the Orange Bowl, to claim the national championship!
6.Tajh Boyd to Nuk on 4th and 16, to set up Catman and take down LSU!
5.A 5 and 5 Clemson team "breaks" out the orange pants, and rips an -and 2 chicken team w, George Rogers.
4.Steve Fuller hits Jerry Butler with an 87 yard TD, as Clemson claims its first ACC championship in years (1978)
3.CJ Spiller leaves GT jocks laying all over Death Valley as he takes a swing pass to the house!
2. David Treadwell crushes Georgias hopes 2 years in a row,(1986) (1987), with last second field goals
1.Steve Fuller to Jerry Butler to rip the chickens hearts out in 1977!
Would love to hear yours, I am sure that as soon as some of you start posting, I will say, should have used that one lol! GO TIGERS! By the way, used none from the last 2 years, to many to count!

Some of my faves to add on (not in particular order)...
*2 were the '01 GT game...Dantzler to McKelvey on a 4th down for TD in 4th quarter, then the game winning scamper to the house in OT.
*1st & 35 in '05 in Columbia, converting that en route to the game winning TD by Davis.
*The Catch II by Dantzler to set up winning FG in 2000 against coots.
*Gaines Adams returning the botched FG attempt @ WF to bring us back in that game
*Another 2 in 1 - Artavis on the pop pass, tiptoeing the sideline & Watson on 1 leg leading us to victory against coots 2 years ago.

Great list but #1 will always 've Charlie Bauman's interception in Danny Ford's first game as head coach to secure the W against Ohio State and Woody Hayes. Hayes got fired for punching Charlie and Ford became a legend. For me personally that was the moment I became a life long Tiger Fan. Go Tiger's!!!

Last year's Clemson/Wake Forrest game where rumors were going through the crowd that the Cid beat the Coots. When it was announced, the place went wild.

All-time favorite game in Death Valley.
I remember sitting on the hill for that one. I was just a fussing at Danny, "HURRY UP! What are you doing? We are gonna run out of time!!" Turns out he knew exactly what he was doing.

I think The Catch was the most exciting play I can remember. The coots had the game won and we snatched it from them. Also broke a nearly 20 year bowl drought and opened up a winning era in Tiger football!

Have a framed poster of this in my office.
Some really good games with the Dawgs in the '80s. Would love to still play them every year.

the first win at FSU since 1989. Plus it was a last minute win with Davis going in for the score!
