Fake punt

These two are my guess as well. Rosiak’s sack against Nebraska should also be in the mix somewhere, but that was the climax of four amazing plays all in a row, so it might not be categorized as a single best play.

The overtime vs Nebraska really was about as perfect as it comes.

Outside of Seth almost completely bailing them out with that "maybe late-hit"

I was at that game and honestly even a few Nebby fans around me felt like Mahomes-Lite sold it a little TOO much

Yeah, I don't think this one is much of a spoiler. I would have Scott's pick-six against KU at #2, so 2 will have to be pretty good to beat that.

EDIT - Yeah, the fake punt against Michigan is worthy, but I'd still put the KU pick six at #2 given the importance of it.

Disagree, definitely not a late hit. Banks had spun back toward the field of play after barely stepping out and Coleman put his hands on him and gave him a little push while the whistle was still ringing. Banks tripping and falling over and Nebraska fans wishcasting have made the legend more than reality. Doesn't mean it couldn't have been called, but luckily the correct call was made on the field.

Ive only seen that play in real time and the replays right them thereafter during the game
regardless, that gets called against us 98% of the time between 2004-2020
