Where to begin? The A&M game, Baylor, the stand against Miami. etc...

My favorite game was Baylor. I think when Arthur intercepted RG III that that was the loudest I had heard the Bill in a while.

Most EMAW moment, no doubt was pregame before OU. When the two teams got in each others face a few minutes before kickoff, I was ready to go to EMAW "war", if you will.

It was like the Fresno State game!

Mine had to have been Baylor and if it WAS Baylor, the turning point in the game was that botched pitch in the 4th quarter after RG3 and co. had been driving. Botched pitch put them out of FG range and they missed it, allowing the KSU cats to make the comeback.

What fun!

remember RGIII threw a backwards pass like 10 yds and it bounced out of bounds but was ruled incomplete? I was furious. I was like, "no way he will get away with this!" And in the end, emaw won.

Wow, eerily similar.

I thought that was one of his receivers that threw that horrific pass?

The fact that there were so many moments that could have been the best moment in most seasons is pretty awesome. I'll take the 4OT win for the first OT game in the Bill. Klein starting the 3rd OT with a scramble for a TD was very exciting.

WillieWatanabe · « **Reply #8 on:** May 29, 2012, 06:47:52 AM »

I'd say the A&M game was the best/most satisfying. Had totally given up, then the Chamber hit Harper for the long touchdown. Then the OTs, omg.

Texas game was also great. Played horribly offensively and the football wizard Mack Brown still couldn't win. Loved reading national guys reactions all year.

Baylor was definitely the turning point, imo. Agreed on Arthur's INT, the place was rocking, as well as after the 4th down stand. Started to get the feeling "this may be a good year."

The Arthur INT vs. Baylor was the one moment for me when it was just absolute carnage. One of those moments when bodies are on the ground, you're hugging anyone in reach, you can't catch your breath, and you don't know what you're doing you're just doing it. So special.

If you were there in person, then your answer would be "the Stand."

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #11 on:** May 29, 2012, 09:31:02 AM »

Easily the call reversal in Miami.

Really thought we were going to get Eff'd on that one.

Post game Pinkel was next.

Agreed. It was fantastic. Also, my buddy went down on the field after the game and got a picture taken with Mangino. That was the second best part of the 2011 season.

RGIII's interception, and it's not really close.

I really enjoyed the Tech game. It was when I was like "is this team for real?" and then at halftime I was like "guess not" and then we destroyed them. 4 TO's in the 4th quarter? Good grief, that was incredible.

EMAWmeister · « **Reply #14 on:** May 29, 2012, 12:55:36 PM »

Really enjoyed going down to Austin. What a fun trip that was.

(Note: my answer would 100% be Baylor but I'm a fracking respect who got entirely too PAK'd before the game and had to leave)

Most Underrated win: @ Tech

Turning point of Season: Miami goal-line call reversal

The climax - Pass interference on A&M in the endzone in the last overtime. Now 1st and goal inside the 5. The impending inevitable feeling of Klein and the o-line bulldozing over the aggie d-line. I could feel the helplessness and hopelessness of the aggies at that point.

the cherry on top - Out scheming Texas.

low point - Sooners losing to OSU and costing KSU a Dr. Pepper.

Yea, oddly, this is right up there for me too. I would've eaten a guys face off for a chance at the 2 point conversion.

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #20 on:** May 29, 2012, 04:57:22 PM »

I don't like to think about the OSU game because so much was on the line. If we punch that ball into the endzone, we finish 11-1, Big 12 Champs, and get to bitch and moan about how the BCS system sucks for keeping us out of the national championship game for some stupid rematch.

Yeah, i lost my crap when AB picked him. Running around the house yelling "eff YES [redacted] I rough ridin' LOVE YOU", only to realize the windows were open and the neighbors and their 4 year old were outside.

I leaned over to my good friend Ging two plays before the INT and said, "A pick six would sure be nice right now." Huge EMAW moment. Lots of random hugs and a boatload of high 5's.
