    I think they are balancing the incredibleness of the finish along with the significance of the game. Therefore, I think that's why the Bluegrass Miracle is only #11. That's my only guess.

    Unfortunately, I think the 1994 Auburn game will be top 10:

    Not in 6-10.....CapOne must be top 5.... guessing # 3 behind Cal/Stanford and the Flutie pass.

    I agree with islstl, it's obvious they are combining great endings with overall significance (read: national championships for the most part).

    If the OSU/Miami Fiesta was 8 and the Osborne goes for two was 7, i'm thinking the CapOne bowl ain't in the top five.

    Never know though. . .

    It is if the highest-placing in the list is a game in which your team was on the bad end of the deal...

    Personally, I think the Bluegrass Miracle should have been in the top-10...

    Personally, I think the CAP One deserves to be in the top five, hats off to Iowa for making the play I guess. I know everyone has their own criteria for the top finishes but to me the Bluegrass shouldn't be in the top 5 because it was a luck play. Alley Opps, Hail Mary's, etc. should have their own category. Plays made without a lot of luck should have their own as well.

    So you think they should have come out with a seperate list for luck plays and not luck plays?

    Isn't that kind of subjective though?
