Off the top of my head, I'm guessing the top three will be Iowa '02, Iowa '05, and Nebraska '09. All were wonderful in their own way.

I let it go on Part 2, but you did it again in Part 3. The fullback touchdown machine's name was Ryan KOCK. Respect him by getting his name right.
Besides, it makes your jokes funnier. :wink:
I'm guessing those 3 will rank fairly high.
Here were my top 10 — partly guessing what Wide Right would do, mostly my own ranking — I expected the Tech game to rank higher because of The Run, and the stature that team reached with the win, pre-collapse; I would've placed that game 11th-15th. Three of these have already been listed on their countdown
10: ISU 14, Minnesota 13 (2009)
9: ISU 34, Nebraska 27 (2004)
8: ISU 31, Tech 17 (2002
7: ISU 23, Iowa 3 (2005)
6: ISU 36, Iowa 31 (2002)
5: ISU 42, A&M 14 (2005)
4: ISU 36, Nebraska 14 (2002)
3: ISU 37, KSU 23 (2004)
2: ISU 9, Nebraska 7 (2009)
1: ISU 37, Pitt 28 (2000)
That run doesn't get near the love it should because of the other one. But it was about equally as impressive. Too bad no one was completely destroyed with a crack back block on this one!
I agree. Great run. I found this today also. Not sure if it's been posted at some point or not. Definitely a sweet win.

that's a good list. I still think the 2001 game vs Iowa will be on there somewhere. Game was moved to the end of the year due to 9/11, some big defensive plays to save the game, and Pete Taylor said it was maybe the most important game played in the series since the series resumed. How can it not be? Your lit is a tough one though.
Part 4 is up. Most of you guys are spot on with your predictions.
Sweetest Wins, 2000-2009 (Part 4) Wide Right & Natty Light
Mercilessly caning the author for his mistakes I can understand. But in the name of all that is holy, give the man back his beer!
I had the privilege to be in Kinnick for that come from behind win in 2002. That first half was one of the worst couple hours of my life, but that second half was without a doubt one of the best. Doing that to them in their own house was just amazing. And then after the fact to look back and know it cost them an undefeated season makes it even better.
Ok, I just got caught up on #20 - #6 and of course I have comments :biggrin:
First of all, let me assume that the top 5 tomorrow (In no particular order) will be ...
2000 Insight.com Bowl vs. Pittsburgh (37 - 29)
2002 vs. #20 Nebraska (36-14)
2009 at Nebraska (9-7)
2005 vs. #22 Colorado (30-16)
2000 at Iowa (24-14)
... I don't think I'm ruining any surprise. If those aren't the top five, someone needs to be shot, fired or forced to become a hawk fan.
I don't know if this is quite worthy of that. Maybe forced to become a UNI fan or just give up college football altogether? Anything besides that.
How about we just banish the writer to Texas?
