    I live in Virginia, and not all of the games were nationally televised in those days. I was able to listen to Jim Hawthorne's call on an Internet stream of the radio broadcast. I couldn't believe it!

    Are there any flags? Anyone? Please, anyone?

    Best scene is the dummies tearing down the goal post. #basketballschool

    I remember the scene of the drunken frat boy running on the field to celebrate. The look on his face when he realized Kentucky had lost was priceless

    Told the guys who came down for the Tigerfan Open last fall that I was cooking burgers for a Cub Scout campout in that park and listening on the radio. Me and the other cooks abandoned the grills and ran to where a guy had a TV outside his camper, almost in the exact spot where @KyleK had his camper set up that day.

    I've heard an extended cut of that UK radio call. If the one @kcal posted had continued, you'd hear the analyst do a good job of pulling himself together and then give a very good breakdown of the play's design and why it worked. He was a homer, but he was a pro.

    I was with a friend. I kept saying the game is NOT over. It’s pissing me off the Kentucky fans were taking it that way. Of course, I never really believeS that would happen. I don’t think I could speak for a full minute.

    I remember Iowa doing the same to us a couple seasons later in the bowl after Saban decided he gave no fks on the way to Miami.

    Guess the football gods keep the kharma scales balanced...

    Who is this Devery Henderson guy? Everyone that listened to the radio broadcast knows that Jack Hunt caught that pass.
