It was nuts , I remember the Worlds Fair was going on too.

UT vs Alabama 1982
UT 35 AL 28

UT snaps an 11 year losing streak to Alabama and starts a 4 game win streak.

Johnny Majors first win against Alabama.
Bear Bryants last time to coach at Neyland stadium.

Knoxville went nuts! Goalpost came down and pieces of it were carried up and down "The Strip".

The police finally had to turn the fire hydrants on to clear the people.

Epic night in Knoxvegas.

Am I the oldest guy here?

My favorite UT game would be the 1974 win against Clemson...29-28.

That '01 game was absolutely painful.

UT destroyed us in the trenches all night.


I was there and had just recently turned 21. It was the most fun I have ever had at any away sporting event. The Florida fans were very gracious, and congratulatory after the game...which surprised me very much. I don't think it's still there, but we had a great time at the Purple Porpoise.

As well as the LSU comeback after the behind the back chuck for a TD.

Of those that I've attended, the 2007 Cal game. It was supposed to be Cal handing us our asses in Neyland but instead it turned into the feel good blowout of the decade.

My answers to these type questions covers only the games I was at. Important factor to me is excitement felt by myself, crowd, team and game

# 1 Notre Dame 1991
# 2 Sugar Bowl 1985
# 3 Florida 2001
# 4 Alabama 1982
# 5 Alabama 1985
# 6 Alabama 1995
# 7 Florida 1998
# 8 Notre Dame 1990
# 9 Cotton Bowl 1989
# 10 Georgia 2006

that is kind of my list. seems it changes frequently as I recall different games...

I like that list. All are good wins. My favorite win is the 01 win over Florida. Travis Stephens was possessed that day and our offensive line absolutely dominated.

My favorites

1. Florida 01
2. LSU 05
3. Arkansas 98
4. Florida 98
5. Florida 04
6. Alabama 95
7. California 06
8. Alabama 03
9. Citrus Bowl 01
10. Georgia 06

Honorable mention:

This wasn't any UT football game ,but I feel this was a great win in UT Sports and that is when Tennesee beat Memphis in basketball in 2008. What was so great is that game lived up to the hype and against what the naysayers were thinking, UT marched into the Fedex Forum and beat the Tigers and stunned their home crowd. I won't ever forget that one.

The OT game against UK in 07 was good even though it shouldn't have been that close. The 05 LSU game was amazing. 04 UF game was great. I'd say my favorite was in 03 I believe when we went into I want to say 5 OTs against Bama. Just a few off the top of my head.
