Watching the '98 Arkansas game on SECN

The Arkansas punter illegally kicked a bad snap out of the end zone.

The refs mistakenly ruled a Safety and awarded Tennessee 2 pts. Should have been Vols ball inside the Arky 5 yard line with less than 3 minutes to play.


Agree, no argument here.

If the Hogs hadn't fumbled, we were in trouble of losing our first game. Would we still have played Mississippi St in the SECC or would it have been the Hogs again? Still would have played in National Championship game with one loss.

Most people forget that play and just talk about how lucky we were on Stoerner's fumble.

We were the best team, just didn't play that way for the entire 60 minutes.

Which is exactly what he did in his post by saying we were VERY lucky to win the NC.

Every team that has won a championship has had a call/play/ball bounce their way.
As this thread has shown, there was other plays in the game that went the opponents way. It's called football.

Now, now Charger. You know better than that! UT is the only team to get a lucky break in our NC season. Hell, truth be told we didn't even deserve to be there. LOL
It's hard to believe how many of "our fans" cannot just appreciate good things abour our team, players and coaches. They seem to live to find anything negative to cry about.

Who asked you?

Why do you constantly denounce the opinion of anyone you disagree with?

Can't even have a conversation without people like you whining and moaning about how horribly wrong and/or stupid an opposing view is.

I don't need to be asked. It's a message board. Don't like it? Don't post. I will point out BS when I see it.

Reader, please go away.

Sincerely,

Everyone in this thread

How is this fade

Jones is a horrible game day coach and couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag. Dobbs is horrible. I wish we had a good QB. We were lucky to win anything ever at UT. SEC CG much less the national title.


There you go man. There's a post you can "like".

It was called correctly but still big save for us. I don't think I've seen that play in over a decade but wasn't Lewis basically catching it in the flat on a 4th and 10? He would have had to make an amazing play to get the first.

No, not exactly. Tennessee had a 4th and 7 from their own 34 yard line with 1:48 left to play in the game. Tee Martin's pass was to Cedrick Wilson who was at the 45, so it would have been a 1st down. I think it's pretty clear that the Syracuse defensive back, #25 David Byrd, was a split second early and hit him in the back before the ball arrived. It's only questioned because of what a crucial call it was... but it was the right call and the official who threw the flag had a good look at it and never hesitated.
