Billy Ratliff PLOWED the ARK OG into the QB (Stoener) and caused that LUCK. THEN Henry and the UT Oline Pummeled Ark all the way to the Endzone. IF FULMER had spoken up EARLIER in the Fourth, and said RUN THE DAMN BALL-------The VOLS wouldn't have needed that LUCK. TEE MARTIN couldn't hit the Broad side of a barn that day. I watched it. And have it on vhs-----------------

I remember reading somewhere that Ratliff told the offense to keep their helmets on, as he was going onto the field. Said something like, "You're coming right back in." One of my favorite Vols of all time! That was the 1st game I took my son to see, and I told him just before "the fumble", that you just don't leave games early. Was really patting myself on the back after the next play!

Tell me how hell help wr production

Give them more time on the field by coaching to create turnovers.

It kills me when I hear people claim the Ark game in '98 was " luck". If you remember in the 4th Qtr. the Ark punter had the ball snapped over his head and kicked it out of their end zone to keep us from getting the ball. The refs should have called a penalty and our ball inside their 20 yard line and instead incorrectly called a safety. We would have scored the TD and won the game vs. getting the Stoerner fumble ( luck maybe). That would have never happened.

You're maybe only the 2nd or 3rd person on VN that I've ever seen mention the illegal kick.

:good!:

Pretty sure we should've gotten the ball inside Arky's 10 yard line.
