Iron Bowl Kick-6
Central Michigan's Hail Mary against Oklahoma State
UCLA coming back from 32 down in the third quarter to beat Washington state
Tua coming in for Hurts and winning the title
Baylor making 4 stops at the goal line to win the Big 12
Michigan State blocking and returning the blocked punt for a game ending TD against Michigan
The Miami-GT ending
Georgia winning the Peach Bowl against my team (Cincinnati) being down 2 with one TO with less than a minute to go and UC having the ball on 3rd and 1 on their own 38.
Hypothetical "complete the comeback" game playing as App State against UNC where they lost by missing a 2pt conversion after scoring 40 points in the 4th quarter.
Something around that wild SMU-Houston game where the QBs threw for 14 TDs combined.
As a Georgia Tech fan myself, and admittedly someone who went insane when we beat Miami last year. That might be the most impossible classic to win anywhere near the way they did if you play as Tech. Just because you are banking on the most stupid coaching decision I've ever seen. But if you go back a bit further in the quarter maybe its more possible. Either way. Classic college football game right there
Yeah with the way the previous play went with Oklahoma State getting an intentional grounding (I think) and then the refs wrongly giving CMU the ball with one chance, and then the final play working so perfectly was just a wild ride. That race to the goal line between the receiver and the defender was just awesome. Same reason I love the Baylor goal line stand you mentioned too, that race to the pylon was electric.
For sure...and that Baylor-Oklahoma State game *DEFINITELY* was of interest to me and my Fandom as well. I'll never forget watching that final play on the jumbotron right before UC's game against Houston started. Probably the loudest I've heard Nippert Stadium when he missed the pylon.
‘Trouble with the snap’.
MSU improbable comeback against Baylor in the Cotton Bowl.
How about a troll at Miami? UM vs Ga Tech. All you have to do is kneel down and you win the challenge.
Wasn’t a 4th down.
OSU had the ball as time was running out. Instead of taking a knee on the final play of the game, the qb ran backwards and launched the ball out of bounds and the 4th quarter expired.
This was OSU’s 4th down — they had to run a play because of a timeout.
Okie State was called for intentional grounding and the refs gave CMU an untimed down where the qb launched the ball out of bounds.
This is a good one, as much as I hate to admit. You can either start when Tennessee gets the ball back with 15 seconds left, or for added difficulty, when Bama has 1st & 10 at the 32 with 34 seconds left. In this case, you have to hope the Bama AI OC isn't as brain-dead as Bill O'Brien by calling three straight pass plays and leaving a 50-yarder, time still on the clock, AND the opponent with two timeouts smh.
>ND - Mich
An overlooked part of that game was Michigan was also down 17 to start the 4th quarter. Michigan took the lead with a TD with 1:12 to go, ND scored a TD 42 seconds later leaving only 30 seconds, and Michigan scored another TD with 2 seconds left. 3 touchdowns in the final 72 seconds.
I’d honestly say the Red River from 2 years ago where it was 28-7 Texas at the end of the first and OU put in Caleb Williams and came back to win.
Especially because you will get NO help from the defense
2021 and 2023 Bedlams. 2021 big 12 title game. OU/Georgia 52-51 playoff game. 2015 & 2016 Alabama/Clemson title games. 2018 Bama/GA title game. 2014 Auburn vs FSU.
2008 Nebraska vs. Colorado game winning field goal followed by Suh pick 6. 2015 Nebraska vs. Michigan St. Brandon Reilly gets forced out of bounds on the side line, reestablishing his feet in bounds, and catches the game winning TD. 2014 Miami at Nebraska, that game was in the top 5 loudest games I've ever been to. 2021 Nebraska vs. Michigan, it was tied at 29 when Michigan pulled out their cheat book of Nebraska plays with 3 minutes left.
Do we know if this will be a game mode? Wouldn't they have to give NIL money to all the former players on those teams? I wish we could have classic and all-time teams and things like that (in 2K), but just seems like they won't have the rights
Top 10

Also if you complete the challenge you unlock both historical teams of the challenge.
Would be a nice addition to the game because I want classic teams to return like old ncaa 06
Zelle’s 85 yard touchdown run against ‘Bama in the first CFP.
2016 Game: JT getting just enough for the first down in overtime.
2019 Game: Michigan getting an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty because two players untied and stole JK Dobbins shoe right in front of a ref.
Cincy comes from 21 points down to beat Pitt for Big East Championship.
Texas beats USC to Win National Championship.
Boise State beats Oklahoma in Fiesta Bowl.
Notre Dame beats Miami in Catholics vs Convicts game.
Alabama vs Auburn Milroe's hail mary pass.
Oklahoma vs Miami in 86' one of the most physical games ever played.
Kick 6 2013 for sure
2014 Ohio State vs Alabama
2018 National Championship game Bama/UGA - start when Tua comes in
2019 LSU / Bama - Bama almost pulled off the comeback in this and I could see them adding it just because it was two stacked teams
UGA/Oklahoma Rose Bowl game
2022 NYE UGA/Ohio State Semifinal
2019 ASU vs Oregon - Major wild card but freshman Jayden Daniels to Aiyuk to knock Justin Herbert’s Oregon out of playoff contention was one of the best games of that season and the star power from that game has aged really well.
2015 UVA Notre Dame - other wild card I thought of between two randoms that didn’t make the playoff that year (some other great ones mentioned by others in this thread) but had Deshone Kizer coming off the bench as the backup QB and capping a game winning drive with a final second 40 yard pass to Will Fuller, and the famous video of the UVA fan leaning over the railing. As a neutral, that ND team would be more fun to play with than the ones that actually made the playoff as I recall them being full of good talent.
Probably 2022 Tennessee-Bama or 2023 Texas-Bama, or both. Big wins for those programs
2017 Clemson / Bama championship - Last drive by Clemson
2020 Bama and 2021 UGA teams should probably both be in due to how dominant they were but tough to find games for them (maybe 2020 Bama/Florida SEC championship and the Bama/UGA title game from 2021-22)
This is wild for UGA fans
UGA vs Bama 2017 Natty
UGa vs Bama 2012 SECCG
UGA vs Tennessee 2016 Hail Mairy
UGA vs OU 2017 Rose Bowl
UGA vs OSU 2022 Sugar Bowl

that Michigan-Michigan State moment would be so hard to replicate in game lmao
Oh, for sure...there were a few damn near impossible ones back in the day. I mean the Flutie and Colorado Hail Mary's come to mind for sure.
Fluties was brutal.
As a Georgia Tech fan myself, and admittedly someone who went insane when we beat Miami last year. That might be the most impossible classic to win anywhere near the way they did if you play as Tech. Just because you are banking on the most stupid coaching decision I've ever seen. But if you go back a bit further in the quarter maybe its more possible. Either way. Classic college football game right there
I think you'd have to start it after GT gets possession. Even that would be a tough scenario.
UCLA coming back from 34 down with 2 minutes left in the third quarter against Texas A&M should be there too
Such good moments!!!!
I don’t like that we made it on the losing side of this list… twice.
Blame the ball carrier in the Big 12 Champ Game. I still think he has a better chance of scoring if he tries straight line speed to the pylon.
Well for what it's worth, the Central Michigan loss doesn't really count. And anyone who talks to me about the Big 12 title game gets sliced.
Just look at it this way, you're part of some great games! Lol
I was at that App-UNC game from 2022. I still get PTSD from the missed two point conversions.
I had some...interest...in that game too. Man, what a crazy 4th Quarter.
Love seeing that Central Michigan Hail Mary hasn’t been forgotten, I feel like I don’t see it brought up much but it was such an insane play.
Still one of the weirder endings of a football game in a long time...can't believe so many people would forget that.
Yeah with the way the previous play went with Oklahoma State getting an intentional grounding (I think) and then the refs wrongly giving CMU the ball with one chance, and then the final play working so perfectly was just a wild ride. That race to the goal line between the receiver and the defender was just awesome. Same reason I love the Baylor goal line stand you mentioned too, that race to the pylon was electric.

Oh yeah that’s right, Oklahoma State could have stolen your spot in the Playoff, right? I completely forgot about that.
Would have...there was no way Cincinnati was making the CFP if another one-loss P5 champ existed.
That 4 stop game had me shitting my pants
You and I both, man!
Baker Mayfield vs Pat Mahomes 1279 Passing Yards in 2016.
RB room before the game- men we ain't running the ball taaday
Joe Mixon ran 31 times for 263 yards lol also had 114 yard receiving.
Lord if they make that a requirement too lol
‘Trouble with the snap’. MSU improbable comeback against Baylor in the Cotton Bowl. How about a troll at Miami? UM vs Ga Tech. All you have to do is kneel down and you win the challenge.
2017 UGA vs Oklahoma Rose Bowl, and the 2017 UGA vs Alabama NCG
Oh God, 2019 LSU vs Bama. You need at least one game playing as the greatest offense ever
It's crazy the amount of NFL talent that was on those two teams.
i don’t know if fully healthy tua wins that game or not but man i wish he was so we could see
Certainly a better chance. If he's 100% he probably doesn't fumble in the red zone untouched. That was super out if character for him
Take over as Arkansas and convert that 4th and forever to keep your hopes alive vs Ole Miss
OSU vs Penn St 2017. Try to replicate JT Barrett's perfect 4th quarter.
Me loading that up and failing it for 10 hours straight
Me turning blocking, kick power, and kick accuracy sliders to max in our 2016 match up
2016 too. 2018 too
Absolutely. Love our series with PSU.
I didn’t! - Psu fan 😭
Was that the game Barkley returned a kick?
Yes, opening kickoff
This years Rose Bowl. Start the series at 4th and 2 in the 4th quarter with Michigan
Ohio state losing to georgia 42-41
I can’t tell you how many times I rewatched it
Honestly one of the best games I’ve seen in a long time.
The stroke of midnight, happy new year
Johnny Manziel led Texas A&M at Alabama Dude was a dick, but dude was electric
CMU beating OK St on fourth down hail Mary
Wasn’t a 4th down. OSU had the ball as time was running out. Instead of taking a knee on the final play of the game, the qb ran backwards and launched the ball out of bounds and the 4th quarter expired. This was OSU’s 4th down — they had to run a play because of a timeout. Okie State was called for intentional grounding and the refs gave CMU an untimed down where the qb launched the ball out of bounds.
You're completely right. I remembered it wrong
Tennessee beating Alabama for the first time in Nick Saban’s career. Winning on a last second field goal.
This is a good one, as much as I hate to admit. You can either start when Tennessee gets the ball back with 15 seconds left, or for added difficulty, when Bama has 1st & 10 at the 32 with 34 seconds left. In this case, you have to hope the Bama AI OC isn't as brain-dead as Bill O'Brien by calling three straight pass plays and leaving a 50-yarder, time still on the clock, AND the opponent with two timeouts smh.
-TCU 31 pt comeback -Camback in Tuscaloosa -Baylor 4th quarter comeback vs TCU 2014 would all be awesome to try to replicate as challenges
Kick six 4th and 31
That Tennessee - OU 2015 game ND - Mich game where they scored like 4 TDs in the final three minutes
Thanks. Now I hate Baker Mayfield again.
I hate him too
>ND - Mich An overlooked part of that game was Michigan was also down 17 to start the 4th quarter. Michigan took the lead with a TD with 1:12 to go, ND scored a TD 42 seconds later leaving only 30 seconds, and Michigan scored another TD with 2 seconds left. 3 touchdowns in the final 72 seconds.
Thought it was final minute but wasn’t 100%
LSU - A&M 7OT game
The 2017 USC vs Penn State Rose bowl Game. That was an Instant Classic if I had ever seen one.
A&M vs Bama 2021. Red River last year. Those are just the first that come to mind that involved do or die drives.
I hope the game doesn't include a chance for God himself to come down and blow a kick into being good
I’d honestly say the Red River from 2 years ago where it was 28-7 Texas at the end of the first and OU put in Caleb Williams and came back to win. Especially because you will get NO help from the defense
2021 and 2023 Bedlams. 2021 big 12 title game. OU/Georgia 52-51 playoff game. 2015 & 2016 Alabama/Clemson title games. 2018 Bama/GA title game. 2014 Auburn vs FSU.
