One candidate is very recent

Here's another

Last one (at least, for now)

Strickland to Estime vs Va Tech

 

[Trueblue25]

for me it’s one of these three:

Estime’s punt return in the Texas Bowl.

Dungey’s stretch for the first down clinching the clemson win.

trill’s strip. That’s not a play college athletes make.

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

Nassib to Lemon to win @Missouri. Best quarter of offense I can recall a Syracuse team playing.

 

[NKR1978]

This crazy play from the Camping World Bowl

That game was soooo important. That’s a solid choice.

Marrone out coached a shitton of teams while he was here.

That play symbolized the entire season.

Here's the punt return (I have a really busy day at work, if anyone can tell). I was at the Crown Plaza in Syracuse. We were up for the Nova basketball game and I had just gone to the bathroom when I heard the bar area explode in cheers. People are lucky I put myself away before running out to see what happened.

 

[PAcuse]

Lots of good stuff
That camping world bowl play is tough to top

 

[NKR1978]

The 2012 USF comeback was pretty important too.

 

[Toga]

That's one bad man Bob.

I was watching some games from the 2010 - 2013 period and, wow, all the names I had forgotten. Eric Crume, Deon Goggins, Doug Hogue, Reddish, Siriki Diabate, Marquis Spruill, Phillip Thomas, Richey Desir, Beckett Wales, Jarrod West, Antoine Bailey, Devante McFarland, Charley Loeb, Jeremiah Kobena, Prince Tysen-Gulley, Ashton Broyld, Drew Allen, Terrell Hunt, Jerome Smith, Sean Hickey, Cam Lynch, Keon Lyn, Dayshawn Davis, Jay Bromley, Ri'Shard Anderson (?), Justin Pugh, Kirkland, Foy, Ross K. the kicker...just so many...

 

[Moontan]

The Doctor timed that very well...

We all wish we could see the West/Lemon/Sales trio with the Dino offense. Also PTG/Smith at RB. Exactly what personnel Dino is trying to get.

I'd love another back like Smith - just seemed allergic is losing yards. But none of those guys were particularly fast, and are probably lesser athletes than what we have at those positions now. It's the jump from the Big East to the ACC that makes this so.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I mean the most memorable play is Dungey's ninja kick.

It's not the most important or greatest play but I don't see a debate to be made that another one was more memorable.

Marlowe Wax is going to be that physical RB we need.

 

[NKR1978]

That's one bad man Bob.

I loved that play. That and the throw as he was falling to his knees. Was so happy to see him play like that after the injury against ND. Really wish we could get that Notre Dame game back. By the end of the year ND may have been the 2nd best team in the country, but we could have put up a better fight.

So many what ifs for 2012. That team should have beat Northwestern, Minnesota, Rutgers and Cincinnati. I'm not sure it's a given that the 2018 team was the best of the decade. Would love to have seen those two teams play each other at their best. I think 2018 would win, but the top end talent on 2012 was a lot better.

Dungey throwing the bc player over the drinks table.

I have to think that the 2012 team, were they able to play the 2018 team, should have beaten them. But they couldn't/didn't. So 2012 of them.
