Question: If you could erase one play in Alabama Football history...what would it be?

[Tide&True]

There are many choices...but you only get one.

SInce 90% of the responses probably will either be the kick six, the Clemson pick plays, or some other recent Auburn game... Ill go with La Tech scoring to go ahead of us in 1999. The 1999 team deserved better than what they had on the sideline.

Thank you for your “other answer” A loss to a lesser team hurts.

Oh, wow....as I think about it there are a lot, especially lately. Guess it's because we've been so good for so long that one play here or there really can break a season. Whereas before Saban, a single play didn't dramatically change a season that would have been somewhere between 7-5 and 9-3 anyway.

Guess I'll go with getting stuffed on 4th and 1 with about 1:30 to go in the 2013 Iron Bowl. Auburn was out of time-outs, we would have kneeled out the clock, ineligible blocker downfield would never have happened, the tying TD would never have happened, and the play of which we do not speak would never have happened.

We stay undefeated going into the SECCG, clock Missouri, and head on into the last BCSNCG against FSU, and probably win that.

Ill add any field goal that spoiled a shutout.

 

[BamaGorilla]

How about one of those punts in 1972

 

[tusks_n_raider]

The play that took Tua out last year.

 

[CrimsonTheory]

Mark Ingram's fumble in the Iron Bowl. Do I need to say more?

 

[Tide&True]

I’m going to go old school and say the second blocked punt in the infamous “Punt Bama Punt” game against Auburn in 1972.

 

[OakMtn4Bama]

The bad call on Joe Namath's quarterback sneak for a touchdown against Texas in the bowl game.

 

[TexasBama]

1982 Cotton Bowl - our linebacker stays home and Brewer doesn't score for UT on a QB draw from 30 yards out.

 

[Tubafore]

The play that took Tua out last year.

Mark Ingram's fumble in the Iron Bowl. Do I need to say more?

I immediately thought of Mark's fumble...but then there's Tusks'...how am I supposed to choose?

Then again...maybe TJ Yeldon takes just a bit longer to get out of bounds in 2013 and we go to overtime instead of seeing the {play that shall not be named} every. year.

Mark Ingram's fumble in the Iron Bowl. Do I need to say more?

Won't disagree on this one. We were already up like 3 touchdowns if memory serves about to make it 4 before halftime. Ingram's play does not happen we send send them to the locker room totally beaten down, That one play installed some life into them and obviously changed the momentum of the game.

For us old guys..... 1973 Sugar Bowl. Third down. Tom Clements to Robin Weber. I STILL want to puke......!

1982 Cotton Bowl - our linebacker stays home and Brewer doesn't score for UT on a QB draw from 30 yards out.

Gawd you're old.....

 

[B1GTide]

The play that took Tua out last year.

This!

 

[Tide&True]

The bad call on Joe Namath's quarterback sneak for a touchdown against Texas in the bowl game.

He was robbed!!!

 

[selmaborntidefan]

2011 vs LSU regular season - that Eric Reid interception that should have been a touchdown.

If we make that, that team's name is repeatedly up there with the great teams of all-time.

 

[Tide&True]

Gawd you're old.....

Lol...there are a few of us still kicking!

 

[Evil Crimson Dragon]

He was robbed!!!

He definitely made it
