I wouldn't say that bigleaf maples provide spectacular fall color - unless your favorite fall color is yellow - but what they lack in hue, they make up for in quantity. One of my favorite things about fall it watching the multitude of maple leaves swirl through the air on their journey to the ground.
I've heard that a mature bigleaf maple can have a 250,000 leaves; we have 15 of them in our yard so I have plenty of opportunities for leaf watching.
