Biggest Play of the Year (2020)

[mrmax86]

Each day from 8/20 until the Friday before Kickoff (8/29), I'd like to discuss and vote for our favorite plays from each year. Only one can win from each year. On game day, I'll make a new thread combining all the plays VN selected.

Today is 2020. COVID. One of the worst seasons in UT History. Lost to 4 opponents by 21+. This picture. I'll be honest I remember absolutely nothing about this season. I'll nominate a couple plays that I got from highlight reels, and you guys help with the rest. After we come to a consensus, I'll update the OP. The post with the most votes (likes/comments/etc) will win.

I want to also say that I underappreciated Guarantano while he was here. He's a VFL IMO even though he transferred out for his Sr season.

Can we just skip the Pruitt years!

I’ll go with whoever was at QB when Texas A&M took the last snap in victory formation to end our season.

Will be done with them tomorrow!

2020 is the least engaged I've ever been with Tennessee football... at least since 1984

This! I would like to have one of those Men in Black pens to flash in my eyes, set for erasing Vol football season 2020!!

The second half of this game (and the entire season after this) was absolutely miserable, but anybody remember how huge of a play this felt like at the time? And we were getting the ball to start the second half (but turned it over).

I’ll always remember the 2020 season because my wife was pregnant. By the 4th quarter, the game was already in hand. She craved Cook Out milkshakes, so we would go get one. I’d listen to WIVK and the post game show.

Firing Pruitt and not having to pay a buyout.

(Yeah, yeah, it was in January '21 but still counts.)
