I'm a bit younger than your average college football junkie, so here's my list based on what I've seen in my relatively short tenure as a college football fan:

Team - 2005 USC Trojans (Leinart, Bush, White, Jarrett, Smith, and one of the best defenses of the decade)
Player - Reggie Bush (the most explosive college football player I have ever seen...period)
Season - 2006 Boise State
Game - 1982 Stanford-Cal Big Game (the most famous finish in sports)
Bowl Game - 2006 Fiesta Bowl, Boise State vs. Oklahoma
Uniforms - Oregon and Miami usually have interesting threads, but I'm gonna go with the classic Penn State look
Stadium - Neyland Stadium
Crowd - Ohio State
Coach - Joe Paterno (how could you not get fired up playing for ol' Joe Pa?)
Fight Song - "Rocky Top"
Rivalry - Florida State vs. Miami
Upset - Appalachian State vs. Michigan (would've been Boise State over Oklahoma before Saturday...)

HP, Im glad to finally see somebody give a rather forgotten game some credit. That LSU/Auburn game last year was one of my alltime favorite games. It was 7-3 (which are the games I LOVE), but it was one of the most intense games Ive ever seen..UK does have a great crowd, one of the best in the SEC. South Carolina has a rowdy bunch too..and I too love Joe Pa. I hope that guy coaches till he's 100..
#10
Just wondering what people thought: What school has the worst fans in the SEC for football (I am figure most people will say Vandy hands down).
#11
Team-1995 Nebraska..THEY CLICKED..AND CLICKED..AND CLICKED!
Player-Offense-Randy Moss DOMINATED COLLEGE FOOTBALL and Defense-People will say I am crazy on this one, but Andy Katzenmoyer LB for OSU in the late 1990's was a game changer.
Season-Hard to top last season IMO. That is the thing with College Football..Keeps getting better and better every year!
Game-OU-Boise last year as well or the 1997 Motor City Bowl between Ole Miss/Marshall..AWESOME, AWESOME GAME!!
Bowl Game-Without a doubt..OU-Boise Last Year
Uniforms-My Penn State or Syracuse's this year with the dark blue and orange!!
Stadium-Neyland Stadium (UT)
Crowd-Tennessee or Ohio State's
Coach-Joe Pa
Fight Song-Rocky Top
Rivalry-Tenn-Bama
Upset-Have to say Appy State over Mich!
