1927 UGAg game. They were ranked #1 and heavily favored. Alexander's team whipped them and knocked them out of the Rose Bowl. We won the Rose Bowl the next year and won the National Championship.

You beat me to it. I was going to mention this one.

This one saved our season and National Championship.
Nov 15, 1952 vs. Alabama. I believe this may have been the first nationally televised college (regular season?) football game. Alabama was ahead 3-0 in the second half, first down on our 5 yard line and an opportunity to basically put the game away. Jackie Rudolph, all of 160 lbs, saved the game on fourth down:The $125,000 Tackle (November 15, 1952)
Georgia Tech 7, No. 12 Alabama 3. In the most exciting game, at that time, in Tech annals, Jackie Rudolph’s “$125,000 tackle” of Bobby Marlow helped preserve the victory, earned Tech a Sugar Bowl bid (and the $125,000 payout) but also preserved the Jackets’ 12-0 season and the Institute’s third national title.
Dean Griffin (Dean of Students) had a blown up picture of Rudolph's tackle (turning Marlow upside down on about the 2 yard line) that spanned an entire wall of his office.

Jackie Rudolph was my 9th grade algebra teacher, he was just as tough in the classroom
