This is hilarious!!! Can't you see who is catching the ball in the pic? It ain't the guy in orange. It is #23, Boo Williams, for the Arkansas Razorbacks!

Walls nailed a 51-yarder in the Georgia Dome in the 2nd quarter of the SEC Championship Game vs. LSU in 2001. (This happened after we stopped them on an idiotic decision to go for it on 4th & short deep in their own territory. We took that opportunity, went backwards on a short field, and hit...

I believe they didn't wear numbers on the jerseys at that time, so I'm not sure how they have assigned numbers to particular players.

I don't know if it's a "break" game, but it's certainly a "make" game. The last 4 times the Vols have beaten the Gators (98, 01, 03, 04), UT has won or tied for the East title. There's only one instance in which the Vols have beaten the Gators and not won the East (1992). There's a...

The link is set to take you to the play with the hit.

In the "Joey Kent bites his tongue" game he's referencing, it was Gators 62, Vols 37. Ouch.

Why are people continuing to complain about the lack of video? The video is linked in the post two posts below the original post, and here it is again for good measure: 2001 Tennessee 34 Florida 32 (Vols Drain the Swamp) - YouTube

For those of you with high standards for using the Gatorade shower, you ought to know that when the NY Giants invented it in the 1980's, it was done to Bill Parcells after EVERY win.

That's ironic...

Logically, you can't play the "what if" game like that. It just doesn't work. Each thing that happens affects everything else after it. If the Vols are leading by 7 instead of 1 in the 4th quarter, maybe Ainge doesn't even throw a pick six allowing LSU to tie the game or take the lead. Maybe...

Your memory does not serve you correctly. 47% of Wilhoit's kickoffs were touchbacks.

Yes, the Vols were in field goal range, but that doesn't mean that Ainge doesn't still throw a pick. Let's be fair. One of those missed "chip shots" was a 51-yarder.

Vols lost by 7 to LSU in '07. You do the math. In order to get to that game, though, Lincoln hit game-winning kicks against South Carolina and Vanderbilt as well as 4 FGs vs. Mississippi State. He did all of this as a freshman. Just to get to overtime vs. UCLA after the Vols' defense...

I don't really agree. I honestly think the intensity of Peyton Manning and Al Wilson raised the level of the UT program in the mid-90's but finally beating Florida is what propelled UT to a NC. I think every team between '95 and '98 had national championship aspirations, but they knew that...
