Top 10 plays of the decade

[y2kFrog]

Tank
Green tipped pass
Dawson pick 6 vs OU
4th down OT stop vs Baylor
Doctson one handed TD vs Minnesota
Something Bram/Alamo Bowl related
Boyce TD/2 point conv at WV
Reagor TD at Baylor last year
Something with Boykin

My guesses

The list of plays I watch over and over on YouTube.

 

[Dogfrog]

Marcus Mallett fourth and one, one on one stop of Perine vs Oklahoma.

 

[Moose Stuff]

Marcus Mallett fourth and one, one on one stop of Perine vs Oklahoma.

One of my favorites.

Didn’t we have a thread similar to this not long ago? Or was that just top home game moments?

Most of my top ten have already been mentioned, but I’ll go on record with:
2 point conversion in Boise
Doctson/Green tipped pass at Tech
Mallett’s stop of Perine
Tank’s knockdown
Boykin’s long TD run against K State in 2015
pick 6 in Atlanta
Hill to Reagor against Stanford
4th down stop against Baylor
Boyce against WVU
and DA’s run against Ohio State

honorable mention to the Boykin/Holgo high five, Listenbee’s Peach Bowl TD to Green, Texada’s pick 6 against Baylor, Oberkrom’s 2014 game winner at WVU, Catalon’s kickoff return against LSU, Doctson’s one-hander, Doctson’s leaping catch/TD against OK State, Bram’s sideline dance TD/feed me celebration,

Is this really the end of the decade?
Many sources say it isn't.

Technically, every day is the end of a decade. But yeah, 2020 is the final year of the second decade of the 21st century AD.

Or is 2020 the 1st year of the 3rd decade of the 21st century?

 

[ftwfrog]

Oberkrom’s winner at WVU got to be top 10.

I lean toward this. I did not consider my self to be in my 30’s when I was 40. It definitely became the 2000’s, al least culturally, when the clock hit midnight 1999 (and we all died from Y2K). 2020 belongs in the 20’s not the Teen’s.

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

There’s no “leaning” involved. It’s not subjective. Unlike your age, the Gregorian calendar started on year 1, not year 0. Here’s a test. Count to ten. Did you start with “zero” and end with “nine?” No? Then 2019 is not the last year of the decade.

That part sucked.

Opposing viewpoint, depending upon how you define a decade:

Was 1990 part of the '90s or the '80s?

That’s not an opposing viewpoint. 1990 was clearly part of the 90’s. It was not, however, part of the last decade of the 20th century.

That's is my contention that the decade ends in 2020 because there was no year 0.

I’m aware of the calendar. Culturally it’s different. That’s all. If I mention the 80’s do you think of 1990?

no, but I’m not talking about “the 80s” or “the 10s” (or whatever you call it). “the 80s” and “the 9th decade of the 20th century are different measurements.

I think we started out asking if the decade will be over. If the decade is the teens, then the answer is yes. If we're going mathematical, then no.

Agreed. I wasn’t trying to start a whole philosophical debate. I just kept it going because I like to slap Peace around whenever I get the chance.

I think it has more to do with you wanting to reemphasize your Eagle Scout super nerd bonafides and drop Gregorian calendar knowledge on the board. Now go darn off and watch a ballet or something. Oh, and bring me back some beignets if it ain't too late.

Ruby Slipper on Magazine St just off Canal as we speak. I’ll throw a couple beignets in a to go box.
