OK, I'm watching the game right now, and it was the open-field hit on Joey Kent by Lawrence Wright that I was thinking of. Kent had just caught the ball when a split second later he was hit by a freight train running at full speed. Kent is still laying on the field...

I thought that was in the Sugar Bowl game we played against West Virginia after the '93 season. We beat them 41 - 7, if I recall correctly. Are you having a hard time distinguishing your West Virginia redneck from your Tennessee redneck? They both have the coonskin cap guy, don't they? Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

I remember that I was in Tucson on a business trip and my wife was sending score updates to my pager. Wasn't that the famous open-field assault on their receiver by Monty Grow? I THINK it was Monty Grow, but my memory is fading more each day. I will find that tape and watch it TODAY! :) Randy ----- Original Message ----- From: ken...@earthlink.net To: gatortalk@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, August 23, 2009 8:00 AM Subject: [gatortalk] Re: 1994 Revisited I think 1995 must be my favorite. I am sure everyone remembers that we were down by 16 points -- twice -- in the first half. The second time, we ripped seven consecutive touchdowns, one in the first half, and six in the second. Some of the later TD drives came during a huge rain storm. It was a torrent of rain to go with the torrent of Gator touchdowns. Tennessee was totally washed away. So many good moments in that game: the two Graham fumbles that led to Gator TDs, the Lawrence Wright hit on Joey Kent, Reidel Anthony pointing at the Tennessee defender as Reidel runs into the end zone. Toward the end, they brought in their third string QB, who was James Bates' brother. You could see James jumping around and shouting at him across the line of scrimmage. I can only imagine what he was telling his baby brother. Sports Illustrated had spent the week following Peyton, in order to do a big cover story on him. They ended up doing the cover story on us. Ha! Just one of a long line of humiliations inflicted on Peyton and Tennessee by the Gators. I know everyone on the list already knows all of this stuff, but I just enjoy writing it. Go Gators!!!!

I didn't remember it being so tense. Every time it was 3rd and short they brought in that new quarterback, Tebow. Converted every time. We had an adequate offense. The D was what won that game. Held the toothless to -7 yards rushing. We beat them sensless! Scored the go ahead with 6 minutes left. T mounted a pretty good drive only to get intercepted on our 30. We held on for a 21-20 win. Phew. I'm breathing hard just remembering it!

A very satisfying win. They brought Peyton in late in the game. He looked lost. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

It was fun seeing a lot of the old guys, but most of all, it was fun watching that awesome defense shutout UT at home!
