ESPN sure was pushing the Crabtree play during the bowl game last night...

I think it is wrong that ESPN plays the complete clip including audio for the other three picks on thier commercial, but switch over to the official announcement audio during the Alabama clip. If you aren't paying attention it looks like you are choosing between just 3 selections not 4. I think they know that those crazy Alabama fans will vote and vote often, so they are trying to handicap them. ;)

Crabtree's catch, while amazing, was not "game changing" but rather "game winning". I think that is something ESPN and their viewers no longer understand. Prothro's catch was the ultimate game CHANGER because we were down 21-10 and after that catch we sparked a comeback that led to a 10-2 season. Making a field goal or TD at the end of the game to win is not really changing the course of the game. I think Rashad's catch DID change the game because we were not winning...and it put us in a position to win. It changed the tone of the OT. Just my .02.
LOL! I was going through this just to see if anyone had made this point. 3 of the nominees are game-WINNING plays. Yes, Crabtree's play was AWESOME, but it was a game-WINNING play. Had his play been a 50 yard gain that got them into position to kick a winning field goal with no time left, then it would be a game-CHANGING performance. I agree with your assessment!
