2002 Purdue game.

Just kidding. Fiesta Bowl. Can't beat multiple OTs, the nerve-wracking drama of the way that game finished all the way down to Dorsey's final desperate attempt in the clutches of Cie Grant. Everything in that game was great.

Gotta go with the Fiesta Bowl. I was living in Bowling Green OH at the time and remember hearing the cheers from the bars 2 blocks away. I remember yelling OH and getting about 50 IO's well into the wee hours of the morning. I still feel the tension of that one when I watch my dvd copy.

That is the only football game I ever cried over.

This win was sweet for sure though. More of an exorcism than anything. The rest of the BIG playing so well was icing on the cake.

Except the refs. They sucked donkey dicks.
The haters have a semi-valid argument.
If the stupid zebras hadn't gotten about 14 OTHER calls so blatantly wrong, they wouldn't be STILL catching hell for finally getting one right twelve years later.

Fiesta bowl because not only did we beat duh u, we slain them. That was the start of a long downfall that has lasted over a decade. They never got back up. Our guys single handedly destroyed a program. Hopefully we can say the same thing about Bama in 10 years.

Fiesta Bowl was much bigger for osu. It exorcised decades of demons, slayed the unbeatable and put osu on the map. It was the reason they became a power to be feared again.

The sugar bowl was bigger for the nation. If osu had failed to finish the sweep of the sec west, the significance of those games would have been spun as well as their interest in being there. With the giant slayed as well and in remarkable fashion by EzE and some no name third stringer, the rhetoric was slain.
