Slightly homer, slightly not, going with 2013.  2012 you had a Big Ten Title Game featuring a third place team, played in an empty building; followed by the slaughter of Notre Dame in the national title game.

2013 had great games in both respects, plus the Kick Six game.

2012, Muschamp's only good year in Gainesville.

2012's final BCS standings had 6 SEC teams in the top 10.  I assume you all loved that.
