Have to say SIU. The Sanders to Goodwin bomb on 4th and 2 is the play of the year...in a year where there are at least 15 to 20 plays in contention. The stop by Heideman to end SIU's chances was a great play...the crowd was absolutely deafening. The Panther players rallied at mid-field and carried the flag around in front of the fans. It was chilling.
We've had 10 years worth of great games in this season.Winning is more fun than losing.

Texas State
I'm voting for the Texas State game for several reasons, some of which include:
1) The offensive line gave Sanders all night to throw the ball.
2) Sanders was brilliant.
3) Play-calling was flawless.
4) Hearing the TV announcers admit that without U.N.I., there is no "UNITY."
5) The recovery and togetherness after the fumble recovery, which produced ...
6) That last drive was a thing of beauty. Are you kidding me? No timeouts. Backs against the wall. EIGHT points down, not seven. It was great."Try being more of the solution, and less of the problem."

Do we all remember Johnny Gray that turned that game around for us? Heck, that play turned this whole team around. They have played totally focused from that point on.Originally posted by UNI GuyI say the WKU game. It was the first of the late game heroics that started the run to the title game. I know the winning streak started with YSU, but that game didn't have the last minute drama of the WKU game.

Talk about a tough choice...I went with Texas State, only because it was the 'brick wall' we have never gotten over before, on the road no less. Never again will we hear that UNI has to be at home to make it to Chattanooga.
The Top Story on the 1AA page at Sportsnetwork says it best. If UNI can win the title, it will top off possibly the best 2 month run in the history of 1AA football.

I picked WKU also. I've said it before, but as soon as we blocked that kick, I knew this season was meant for us. And standing outside the locker rooms after the game, some of us were talking about the upcoming championship game against SIU and when we made the playoffs, how much we wished we could get all of them at home... but how that was unlikely. I then said we'd have to take the long and tough road to get to the National Championship, but if any team could do it, this team could. Boy am I glad I was right!!!
"...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."
