The best tackle in college football history

I was at this game (my freshman year @ UM!) and I think it's still the biggest hit I've ever seen in person.

The Barrow hit on Vanover probably takes the cake. I remember Marvin Jones laying out one of our running backs in that game too. I think it was Larry Jones? Also, he doesn't get the recognition because he played in a doo doo defense but Denzel Perryman is probably the best pure tackler I've ever seen at Miami. Not that many huge, knock-out hits but so many times he was left in a one on one situation against a back or receiver and he always got them down.
 
Robert Bailey's hit knocked the guy out in the '91 Cotton Bowl opening kickoff (he called it before hand too), destroying Texas' confidence on the first play.

Go to :52 mark.
