What was your favorite UT-Auburn game of all time?

The 85, 87 (tie), 89, 91, and 97 games were all great!

Mine has to be the road game at Auburn in 2003. Yeah, we ended up losing a heartbreaker, but it was the valiant effort of Casey Clausen, Brett Smith, and Chris Hannon trying to rally us back from a 28-7 deficit! Lost 28-21 as Clausens last pass attempt was intercepted :-(

1985 for sure. Had student tix in sec C. I got offered 250 for the pair which was a lot of money for a college student. I'm glad I turned it down. That day, Bo knew about Tennessee football.

Many terrific games, but being at Neyland in '85 truly a thrill. Vols burned Tigers & put the great Bo Jackson on the mat.

Deon Grants pick 6 in the 99 game at home. Crowd was on fire that night, good times.

'91. Me and a buddy got to the bar late and there was nowhere to sit. Some 'Barn fans that had a table (including a couple hotties) said we could sit with them. We had a blast, Kelly and Pickens went nuts and I even got cozy with one of the hotties. Even in defeat they were all just a nice group to have watched the game with. Good memory.

That game wasn't nearly as close as the final score. I'll never forget when the TV cameras panned to Fulmer & Chavis and both had the "deer in headlights" during the game. Brown & Williams were running up and down the field on UT that night.

Honestly? 2009. I was about 7 hours away for an internship and came up and surprised my brother for the game. We had a blast that weekend even though we lost.

By all means, 1985. At Fall Creek Falls State Park in the lodge watching with my Florida in-laws and he was all Bo this and Bo that.

But it was Tony who was bodacious that day!

Can you believe after the game I wanted to celebrate at the restaurant but I had to go ride bicycles around the park!!! Bicycles ....:blink: But I didn't hear one more word about Bo after that.:)

I was 12 years old in 1985 and my dad taped every game back in those days. I remember watching the game on a VHS tape over and over and over.

I was not able to see some of the earlier U.T. vs. Auburn games in the 80's. I was overseas in the Marines in Korea, Japan, Guam, Phillipines, etc.

The favorite one that I recall is the 1998 one. Yeah, Jamaal Lewis was sidelined for the rest of the season due to a knee injury. You have to admit, that the fumble scoop by Ellis was great. Heck, it took him an hour to get to the end zone......

85 for sure. It was my junior year in HS, and the health teacher made a bet with the class that AU would win. No homework for a week if the Vols won. Of course e didn't keep his word.

Bo knows this, Bo knows that.

Vs. the Vols in '85, Bo knew the bench. We hit him hard early and often, but not late, because he took himself out of the game.
