Top five wins of the Rose era
1. Gonzaga 2011 (NCAA tourney): Beating them like a drum in Denver in front of about 10,000 rabid BYU fans to get to our first sweet 16 in 30 years has to be #1.

2. at San Diego St. 2011: The game was on national TV and we controlled the game from start to finish. The Monday following that game, most bracketologists elevated us to a #1 seed for the first time all season and we jumped to #3 in the AP poll.

3. at Gonzaga 2015: Without this win we would really have had no chance at the NCAA tourney. With it we appear to be on the right side of the bubble now. In terms of "unlikeliest" of wins, I would actually rank this #1.

4. Florida 2010 (NCAA tourney): Any win in the NCAA tourney is huge, but at the time we hadn't won an NCAA tourney game in about 17 years and had lost about seven straight games. Was awesome to finally get a win and advance.

5. San Diego St. 2011: This the game that really propelled Jimmermania and probably was most responsible for Jimmer winning POY honors. The game more than lived up to the hype with Jimmer scoring 43 points. I've never seen the Marriott Center more raucous.
