Brings back memories of the Harshaw golden era. The 5 top games that come to my mind, in no particular order: 

-Greatest upset ever
-What's your deal
-Iowa Rose Bowl
-VT Orange Bowl
-Ukelele USB game

personally.......i think a Top 5 games from the Harshaw Golden Era would make a damn good thread in and of itself.

Agreed with your top three, hands down. I'd probably replace the VT Orange Bowl with Tuan van Le blocking Robbie Keen's field goal attempt from the 3 yard line. Keen, who was 17 of 19 in FGs and 23/23 in PATs prior to that kick and called "the Cadillac of kickers in college football" by Bear Coach Bruce Snyder. I had the only Stanford shirt on in a sea of Cal fans in the sixth row in that end zone. Coach Taylor was Cal's QB that day. Cal finished 5-5-1, their best record in five years, Stanford finished 3-6-2...and there were 75,662 fans at Mausoleum Stadium that day. It didn't fully make up for the Screw of '82 (that came two years later), but I really, really enjoyed it.

Then, Stanford defeating #1 Notre Dame. ND was 3-0, Cardinal was 1-3. Vardell scored four TDs, Ed McCaffrey caught six passes for 111 yards, Vardell scored with 36 seconds left. Athlon rates it the second worst upset in Notre Dame's history.
