Man we gotta get these two programs back to this. As an Arkansas fan this one hurt, but you know what sucks worse? Not feeling anything...like we do right now. Just apathetic. Whatever. We gotta get these two fine programs back to playing games like this in November again. Both have had it sporadically since then but nothing as big as this game.

I was in middle school during that season. It was a great time to be a Vol fan, I can say that. It's hard to describe...but I feel things just felt different back then. Like the air was different or there was a different energy going around this place. Maybe the success brought it, maybe it was because I was younger...I dunno. lol I miss those days. I feel like things would still be different today if we were champions...not sure if we'd still experience what we did back then. And yeah, nobody could say anything to us that season. Was one of the best teams assembled. I remember our RB's in particular were hard driving bullies. Just running over guys. And our LB's were deadly. And the guys were truly a team...full of inspiring young men who were committed to each other, I felt. I have seen that kind of togetherness and leadership since then really. Maybe we see flashes of it every once in awhile from some individuals, but with them...most of the team was that way. You can see it for yourself, just watching how they played and how they carried themselves.

I was too. Bought tickets on Kingston Pike on the way to the stadium. Pouring rain. Soaking wet. Sat in the North End end zone about 20 rows from where the team comes in. When we couldn't convert on that 4th down play after the blocked field goal, I gave up. I was as despondent as I have ever been at a football game. Then, the Billy Ratliffe fumble recovery! I couldn't believe it. Frankly, it's still hard for me to believe today! Then Fulmer had them give the ball to Travis Henry every play. With Will Bartholomew in there blocking at Fullback (a position never used in football anymore) and daring Arkansas to stop us, the boys would not be denied. We won! Incredible! I wasn't in Knoxville for the Florida game that year, so I can't compare the post-game to that night, but I have to say the post-game celebration on the Cumberland Avenue was amazing. Everyone was everyone else's best friend all night long. It was a great night to be a Vol!

OMG! I still get goosebumps after all these years. When the QB put the ball on the ground, my roof nearly came off!

I remember being at the game!!! Lots of people were headed for the exits. I will never forget when he fumbled it was a different feeling in the stadium. Everyone started coming back in from the exits!! Very good game. To win a national championship you have to catch breaks as we did in that game. 💯

I grew up a Vols fan and ended up attending the University of Tennessee. I ran a bar on campus that year and got to attend every home game. One of the greatest years of my life and memories I'll never forget. But this day was hands-down the greatest sporting moment of my life. I just stood there in disbelief and utter Joy at what had just taken place in front of me. What a memory! All I can say is that it was a damn good thing I took that semester off, because I don't remember much of it besides partying and football 🤣🤣 Go Vols!

Rest In Peace Brandon Burlsworth the world misses you

Wow what a game. I sat there in the rain behind Vols bench. The Agony of defeat was setting in. Then Billy made the play of a lifetime. Great Video Brown Edwards. Brings back some awesome memories of that magical season. Hogs were just un-lucky that day. Both teams were loaded and no one deserved to lose. Lucas was a beast that we no answer for. HOGS and VOLS played a game for the ages that day.

Only game I ever cried in. I am good friends with billy ratlif and worked with him. I tell him that best play in UT history. He always just laughs and says na payton had the best plays

I was at that game with another guy that jumped up and wanted to leave early when Tennessee didn't convert on 4th down. I think it's rude to the team to leave early, so I usually don't.

Spirit of luck. That's what you call that. They did nothing to cause that fumble. I get it luck happens and sometimes it takes that to win games for any team. But let's call it like it is. Luck.

On paper, we had better teams in the 1990s than the one in 1998. That team just refused to ever give up. Billy Ratliff has said before that Brandon Burlsworth was kicking his butt all game long. The guy was an All-American and probably would have been an NFL star if he hadn't died in a car accident early in '99. Billy only got the better of him for one play...but thankfully for the Vols, it was the right one.

I was there with my then brother in law his boss was a season ticket holder. He held out the tickets that he wasn't using that year and let his employees pick which game they wanted because he didn't think those would be good games lol. My brother in law chose the Arkansas game even though he wasn't a Bol fan he knew I was a huge fan so he really got them for me. So he and I went to the game and he rooted for the Razorbacks just to spite me by the middle of the fourth quarter he could see how heartbroken I was becoming and started rooting for Tennessee.Needless to say we won we didn't make it back home until 2 the next afternoon the strip was rocking and I think he became a vol fan that day. I've always wondered about his boss missing one of the greatest games in Tennessee history!!

What a great season! And damn, I sure do miss John Ward.

I was at this game. My dad surprised me with tickets. Henry scored the final TD in the endzone i was sitting in. It was electrifying!!

Sorry. I am a huge Tennessee fan. Have been a true fan since I was a kid. 38 now and I still remember this game like it was yesterday. Not even beating Florida this year was quite as exciting. I was actually playing in Highschool football the day TN playes Florida and we had just beat a team 56-0 on a Saturday night makeup game and we all had just got on the bus listening to the final kick by Florida, that they missed. My whole team screamed and hollered the top of their lungs when John Ward called it, and that it was wide. Gave me goose bumps. But that still does not compare to Arkansas and the "Stumble Fumble." I was, as were all Tennessee fans that day I am sure, just in aww of how Arkansas played that day. They should have won. But, it was our destiny that year to win no matter what it seemed. GBO!

was so cold and rainy that night but it's a memory i'll always cherish having w/ my Dad

I was on the top row of DD in seats that don't exist anymore, but I'll never forget at the fumble and then the touchdown looking over the rail and seeing thousands of fans outside the stadium wondering what had just happened.

Remember this game too well. It was electric at Neyland. Your body actually vibrated! Too many good plays to remember.

Oh I remember this well. I hope we are on the verge of another season like the ones we had regularly in the 90s and the 2000's Tennessee hasn't been 4-0 in a long time

I was there, in the North endzone, and recall telling someone next to me that it was over, and he said, "No it's not, just have a little faith." And then the Stumble and Fumble happened. I just looked at him like, really., you were right. Man, that was some game. I was there in 1982 when Tennessee beat Alabama for the first time in a while, and the goalposts came down. We couldn't get down to the field because we were in the Student Section in the upper deck. I was there when we beat Florida when they missed thier kick, and the goalposts came down. We rushed the field. People were tearing up turf for souvenirs, and one drunk guy even had a green post from the fence, said he had a piece of the goalpost. My wife asked him if she could "touch his pole." Yeeesh! I saw the goalpost cameras and goalposts heading for the strip.

I was there as a kid :) was such a demoralizing game..getting beat bad and getting drenched. Then a bloody miracle :') Thank you Clint!!

The opposite is true. Fulmer should have retired and stepped down around '00, '01, or '02. His ego got in the way and he overstayed his welcome. He'd gotten lazy in recruiting and ran off his best recruiters. His passion for coaching just wasn't there anymore, and quite honestly, Fulmer was a mediocre X's and O's coach at best- Cutcliffe was the X's and O's guru on that team and he left for greener pastures. Fulmer ran his best recruiters off and held on to mediocre guys like John Chavis. The team nosed-dived and culminated in a team that lacked an offense: the offense was pitiful. Randy Sanders and Dave Clawson were putrid OC's compared to Cutcliffe. Recruiting was tanking. Fulmer tried to live off the one NC and in reality the type of talent Fulmer had in the 90's should have garnered at least 2 or 3 NC's, alas he was always outcaoched by guys like Spurrier. At any rate, we know what happened next. The dumb, doofus Mike Hamilton stepped in at the wrong time and hired Kiffin. Hamilton was, of course, a Haslam lackey and did his master's bidding. Kiffin left and he hired Derek "Cross-eyed" Dooley. I could go on but why bother? The point is, Fulmer should have left earlier, but our inept admin screwd it up and have been screwing up ever since.

I will never forget this game. It had rained all game and been miserable weather. It had finally stopped late in the 4th quarter. People had left in droves when UT gave the ball back over to UA. I guy that was drunk out of his mind in my section was running up and down the stairs between sections cussing the TN fans that were leaving telling them to never come back. His drunken face was beet red. Suddenly Sterner fumbles and the stadium erupts. I look over to my friend that was with me and he was crying. Then the Cheese took it the rest of the way.

...with the greatest announcer - John Ward. I still to this day receive flak from Arkansas fans over this game, so I only remind them of the Golden Nascar rule - the only lap you have to lead, is the last one. VFL '99.

Arkansas could have still played defense. Tennessee still drove 55 yards with T Henry running down their throats. That Stoerner fumble hurt them, but didn't beat them. Failure to tackle The Cheese did.

Agreed. This game, no matter which side you were on, should be a bookmark for every coach to show his players. Why? Because in this game, every player from both teams involved, "left it all" on the field that night.

They should not have had to tackle the Cheese, the game was over , the fumble absolutely beat them, they could have took a knee 4 times, not taking a knee beat them

You want to "what ifs"? If the incompetent SEC refs had gotten the penalty on Arky's punter correct, the game would not have even been in doubt at this point! Go Big Orange!

My family and I were at this game...remember it well!!!!! VFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was there. Section r row 1 seat one. Seat two was my dad. Best football game I ever saw

Man shout out to Travis Henry!! I remember him, he played for the Bills in the NFL but had short career, had some good years tho before they drafted Marshawn, he was a li’l beast

Not here because of Rudy 2: Electric Boogaloo. I'm here because I'm an old Vols fan who watched this game live and like revisiting our great games.

I remember watching this on rabbit ears because the weather had knocked out the cable. I almost didn’t… thought it would be an easy win. I was 21 then. I’m 47 now. More than half a lifetime ago.

A glorious day for the Volunteers! I was living over 3000 miles away when this game was played, still one of my favorite Vol wins ever. The only downer was the CBS broadcast team of Sean McDonough and Terry Donahue, both of whom had a distinct prejudice against Tennessee. Donahue admitted his gripe with UT stemmed from the UT/UCLA game of Sept/91 in Knoxville, when the on-field temp was 119 degrees. One of Donahue's coaches passed out from the heat, but the on-field paramedics were busy working on "Smokey", our Blue Tick Hound mascot, who had also passed out from the heat.

The music is PERFECT

An older bloke that remembers these two teams would say the 1956 Tennessee-Georgia Tech game and the 1964 Arkansas-Texas game were greater for both programs. This 1998 game turned on a fluke. Those other two games were won by blood and guts.

I love the video, but I think that you should have put John Ward in when Henry scored the final touchdown. GIVE HIM SIX...that's all....TOUCHDOWN TENNESSEE!!!!!

Ryan Tullock you know John ward does

#VFL. GO VOLS. Also, thanks for the flashback game.

The game was electric. CBS did a great job. The sound was great and Sean McDonough's call was ironic. CBS even knew about the orange fireworks they shoot everytime they score a touchdown and got a close up of that

I thought was gonna have a panic attack just now watching it 24 years later!!! Sometimes the good Lord just smiles down on you that’s really all there is to it 🤷🏻‍♂️

That was truly a great game, and Tennessee went on to the win the National Championship that year.

i was there and after awhile you just didn't feel the rain anymore. i actually got up with my friend and started up the steps and then everyone jumped up and yelled and i knew i should have sat there and watched till the end. but i stood on those steps and watched the end of the greatest game i have ever seen. sorry vols i gave up but you didn't and i can tell you i will never do that again.

John Ward: "Arkansas about to head back to Fayetteville 9-0." Clint Stoerner: "Hold my beer!"

Arkansas deserved to win this game. They outplayed the Vols on this day. But then again, it kind of proved that the Vols were a team of destiny that year. The Arkansas program never recovered from this. I'll still say that while this game was more important, seeing that this kept us alive for a National Championship, the UT - Notre Dame game in 1991 is "the Greatest Game". Nothing will beat that come from behind win to beat the Irish in their own house.

Sadly the days of great Tennessee football are dead and buried.

I remember that game very well,every game that year I remember the first one was Syracuse close 1. VFL go volunteers

Brandon is now an angel

I put this video on anytime I’m feeling a little down and boom pure ecstasy

That fumble foreshadowed current Arkansas football sadly, but we got y’all back the next season!

I was there, AWESOME game

I’m a Vols fan I remember this game like it was yesterday Go Vols we on our way Back

I was in Fayetteville, AR for a job assignment in 2017 and of course I had on my Tenn Vols hat and the guy said you know we still upset at you guys about that game and my response was we don't to much like you guys either #VFL

I remember this game, I was there.

I remember this game. Most people don't remember Arkansas was undefeated going into this game. I really believe if Arkansas would have won this game they would have won the national championship

We were there what a killer game.Best feeling ever.

The great John Ward, “Voice of the Vols”. He would retire after the Championship game with FSU. RIP.

I was 10 at the time and i dont think i have ever heard the neighborhood yell so loud when stoerner fell, the coolest shit that has ever happened
