Was hoping for another voting option-- 'The one to come in this year's NCAA tournament'.
 
Texas one because it was in the big 12 tournament and it was an buzzer beater
 
The first thought that came to mind was Texas. The other two were technically game-winners, but I put buzzer beaters in a separate category.

Yep. For sheer excitement value you can't top a buzzer beater. Plus it was a well defended, high degree of difficulty midrange jumper. But they're all pretty damn good.
 
For me, Texas and its not even close. Probably because it the only one I was in the stands for. Oh yeah, and drunk...
 
Texas Game Winner,

That was my first big 12 experience and the change of emotions from possible driving home Thursday to the rolling to the B12 Title with comeback wins over OU and KU was the best experience possible. Monte making that shot made it possible.
 
I don't know if it ended up being the game winner, but his 3 in the 3rd ot at OSU his freshman year to put us ahead with under a minute deserves a mention

Knew I was forgetting one. I'll have to go back and look at that.
 
If only I had said "game winners" on the thread title and name of the poll.....

I think you may need to re-read my post, or perhaps I wasn't very clear. I wasn't criticizing the inclusion of any of these in the poll. I was simply saying that while all three are technically "game-winners" I put buzzer beaters into a separate category and that's why I voted for the Texas game.
 
I was there for Iowa & OU...and Hilton was crazy for both.
But for sheer thrills, I still have to go for the one I watched on TV - the buzzer beater vs UT in the Big 12 tourney.

This is probably why it was my favorite as well. Watched that game at home Thursday and was so excited after the shot we took off for KC on a whim. The next two days were as fun of time as I've had in a long time.
 
Texas.

There were so many cans of beer sprayed in our basement at that time. You would've thought it was a World Series win and we were celebrating with champagne in the locker room.

Texas. My favorite thing was that since the bucket went through the hoop after the buzzer we never led for the entire 40 minutes of the game and yet ended up winning.

In two of the three listed ... the last shot was taken by the opposing team .... Our defense closed it out. IMO, only game winner in the poll was the TX win.

all three were HUGE baskets by Monte.
