What is your favorite UT football moment.....and also your worst moment? Not favorite game or season...but just a moment or play that you think of.

I think my favorite has got to be Bryson in the Championship game in 98 running right up the middle for what seemed like 60 yards.

My worst was Anderson fumbling at the Goalline in 05 vs Bama:frown:

You and I have the same worst. :thumbsup:

That moment summed up how impotent the whole offense seemed that year.

Congrats! I think you just surpassed the record for the most threads created in a 24 hour period.
:p

Favorite moment: (I didn't even see it) heading down an aisle to leave the stadium with 1:42 left in November of '98 against Ark - only to hear a large roar....no big screen back then to see a replay either....an usher told me we had recovered a fumble....

Worst moment: having a field goal blocked about 30 yards down field at the end of the '90 Alabama game.....and then wathcing Bama kick a field goal of their own to beat us - we were heavily favored.

For me it was the moment Clint Stoerner put it on the ground .....and immediately followed by Travis Henry running down their throats for the winning TD. That was incredible. On the flipside was definitely watching Memphis dancing on the 50 yard line after we were beaten in the Liberty Bowl.

As far as what I've witnessed in person, the Wilhoit field goal to beat Florida in '04 was the perfect ending to the best game I've ever attended. Wasn't there in '98 but other than that, I can't imagine any ending to a game more perfect than that. I have two worst memories from Neyland. The first came in '02 when we were heavily favored to beat Florida and thanks to the Clausen fumbles and numerous other mistakes we got destroyed. I remember the game itself was miserable because it was pouring rain and everyone was soaked but the long walk back to the car and drive home was even more miserable. Also, last year when Inky Johnson got hurt was really bad, watching the play, I knew he was in trouble even before I saw the replay. It's a shame he won't ever play football again, but hopefully he can make full enough of a recovery to have a relatively normal life.

The best was seeing Peerless Price pull away from the FSU d backs in the title game, I knew then it was gonna happen...a National Title.

The worst was last week...I saw my Vols torn to pieces on a national stage affirming every criticism we get, to use an analogy it was like seeing the Vols team as a man walking behind the Gators team as a man in prison, in make up...I died a little last week.

I remember channel surfing and I happened to see the pre-game show before the 1986 Sugar Bowl. I remember all the negative talk about our chances from broadcasters and all-nobody gave us a chance. Then we just beat the crap outta those Hurricanes. It was awesome! I was hooked. :rock:

Favorite - Other than the obvious choice, the 98 Championship game. I would say for me it was the 2001 34-32 victory in the swamp.

Worst - 2005 loss to Vanderbilt.

Mine from a Gator point of view. Favorite was 1969. Live in Jacksonville and been a Gator fan my whole life. My uncle is a huge Vol booster and had tried to turn me to the darkside from day 1. Sat with him in the middle of the big money Vol boosters as the Gators beat the Vols in the Gator Bowl. Hired your coach right after that although that did not work out too well for us. I was young enough that I was still considered cute rather than obnoxious.

Worst moment, clearly 2001.

The Run- Jay Graham's run to beat Ala./Willie Gault's return for TD against LSU
Dang Doc-I can't pick just one.

Worst-Memphis KO return for a TD in '96 loss.
