many of those plays I have seen videos of, but the most incredible one I remember seeing live is the hook and ladder Boise State v Oklahoma. To me that play was much more impressive than the Vince Young scramble to the end zone....but then you follow-up the hook and ladder with the Statue of Fucking Liberty and whoa....then you add in the RB dropping to a knee and asking the cheerleader to marry him???? This is a movie, right?
Obviously it didn't mean anything on the national stage, unlike many of these other plays/games, but that game was absolutely batshit insane, lol. Honestly, probably the craziest football game i've ever personally seen.
In the non-buzzer-beating category, Tommie Frazier running over the entire state of Florida in the putative national championship game wins, hands down. Pure shock and awe.
Other quality buzzer-beating moments that bear mention...

watched a million football games with my 2 dads but I think that might always be the most memorable
It wasn't game determining; Miami was going to kick #1 Notre Dame's ass irregardless.
But still, when the announcers are joking that there's no play call for 3rd and 43, and they are literally chuckling as Craig Erickson drops back into his end zone and, with his bazooka of an arm, lazers a perfect pass to Thrill Hill for 44 yards on the mark, splitting two ND defenders in the process, and then with Hill's penchant for entertaining celebration, and Lou Holtz slobbering all over himself, well, as you might guess from this run-on sentence, it was a fine moment for creepycoug.

Semi-recency bias, but that was a pretty exciting game especially considering how big a game it was for WSU and how little UW had to play for.
