Recruiting Football Talk VIII

The spread tells me they believe UGA will get a lead and Tennessee won't be able to muster the points to come back.

Boy are they wrong.
I truly believe a lot of the model is based on UGA’s past dominance. Could we lose giving up more than 20? Of course. But in the era of offense our defense has not given up more than 19. That is a fact from this year. In addition to that, SEC games are won and lost along the lines. They are beat up and thin and not good at the position (OL) that is the best overall on our team which is the D line. This is where we win or lose the game.
 
Ay who’s y’all’s favorite center in the NBA?

I’m a Sabonis fan myself.
JMO, David Robinson and Hakeem are massively overlooked.

DR gave up two prime years for military service, so his career numbers are a little lower and diluted than other top bigs.

Hakeem is the only player in the top 10 in both steals and blocks. Pretty remarkable for a center.
 
November 14, 1998

UT - 28
Arkansas - 24


The #10 Arkansas Razorbacks came to Knoxville to face the #1 ranked Vols. Arkansas raced out to a 21-10 halftime lead, that stunned the 106,000 fans. Traded field goals and a Tee Martin td run made the score 24-20.

For twelve minutes, neither team could score. Deon Grant blocked a FG attempt, but UT couldn’t muster points. With 2:54 seconds left, Arkansas attempted a punt, but a high snap led to a safety. Down two, UT couldn’t move the ball and turned the ball over on downs with less than 2 minuets left. Then.....the miracle happened. Clint Stoerner stumbled, then laid the ball on the ground, allowing Billy Ratliff to recover the ball on the Hogs 43 yrd line. Travis Henry took over, running 5 straight times and scoring with 31 seconds left, giving the Vols a 28-24 victory. Henry finished with 32 carries for 197 yrds and 1 huge touchdown!

I may have told this story before but I was at Goodyear listening to John Ward on the radio. Guys kept coming by asking about the game. When T Martin threw the fourth down incompletion, I said that about does it and people started going back to work.
They heard me yell and came running, when it was final over I was surrounded by 10-15 guys😂
Needless to say supervisors were not as excited😬😂
