As a lifelong Vols fan I still think the 2009 game was the best. Even though it wasn't supposed to be close we were one fat finger away from winning. I still can't believe Cody blocked 2 field goals in a row! 😂 That was such a heartbreaker at the time, but now I think it's the best game between Tennessee and Alabama.
@@Volsfanatic-kn3xw I remember Lane Kiffen making that bold prediction of "we'll be singing Rocky Top all night long when we beat Alabama next year" and by God he almost did it! It sucks he did us like he did because he is a good coach and we could have been one of the best teams in the country in the 2010s.
Alabama fan here. I loved this! I became a huge Alabama, and college football fan at the age of 8 (1986). The "Third Saturday in October " was one of the yearly games that just gave me chills as a kid. I remember every place, everything that was happening during my life on these Saturdays during these rivalry games and they bring a smile to my face. Today they do, not when I was watching the losses like '95. That game was the first time I witnessed Alabama losing to Tennessee. And it hurt! Because I didn't see Alabama beat Tennessee again until 2005. A year I was working in Knoxville, on the west side of Knoxville. Ran into Jason Allen, and Aaron Sears (Both from my area in NWBama) I got to talk to em for 30 min or so while I was on break. (Remodeling a Sam's Club) they were leaving a Wal-Mart. I said "Alabama will beat yall this fall!" Jason Allen said "😂OK! But cool to meet another person from the Shoals." Of course, I ended up being right, but not by much. Oh yeah, and I live basically on the Tennessee River, and I actually think I saw a piece of that goalpost the fans through into the river. Believe it had past through each one of the locks at each dam on the Tennessee River. (😂 Just amazing!) Enjoyed the upload, and I figured that field goal was gonna be your #1. Great pic! #RollTide #GoVols #HaveACigar
Before this timeframe but 1973 game was big. Rutledge to Wheeler on opening play 80 yds. Then Robin Cary punt return to break 21-all tie. Then Wilbur Jackson's 80 yd run to seal it.
Mark, I probably could have. It's a rivalry video, so I had videos of both schools. I did the same thing last year with Florida, too. It's just to show how great a rivalry the 3rd Saturday in October is. I'll tell you, though, I hated putting together those Bama highlights.
Coach Pruit was a terrible coach and we had to go through some bad ones to get the gem of coach we have now!! Pruit can’t be putting his hands on our boys like that!!! I know I had coaches do me that way a time or two but it doesn’t make anyone play better and if you have a problem with anger so bad that you have to put your hands on a someone’s kid then you should not be coaching!!
Just curious why do you have highlights of Bama scoring on us?.lol nobody wants to remember that I love the other ones, and we will beat Bama this year vFL 🍊
@killacommieformommie not many people even know Memphis has a football team you must had to dig pretty deep to remember that when are you a Memphis fan if so I'm sorry for you are you a bama fan and because Peyton Manning on Alabama you had to think of something to say
Can’t wait to play them in Neyland this season with their new head coach. I think they’ll be good but hope we can get them
Will be a great game!
@@Volsfanatic-kn3xwyou should make a top 20 play with all of Tennessee's sec rivals that are big name..LSU, Florida, UGA. Maybe even some others.

I had my tonsils taken out that week and just being so mad, but I couldn't scream. 😆

As a fan of both of these great schools, I appreciate the video.
Yes, Sir! You're welcome.
No hate but how tf r u fans of both 😂😂 I feel like u have to love one and hate the other
Great rivalry video that shows why this game is one of the best in the country
Absolutely!

I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing those stories as well.
I live in Florence
@@editnosmirc4489Awesome! That's where I am located. Used to live right beside the new hospital, but over to the north side bout 2 years ago.
Roll Tide!!! Third Saturday in October on a crisp North Alabama fall day, that’s life.
It should be a good game this year, too. Thank you for watching!
well, atleast he is honest with some clips...I agree with #2 #1 who would not?
I guess I am too old. The strip of Conredge Holloway, Gary Rutledge to Wayne Wheeler 80 yd pass on first play rank as my favorites
Appreciate you watching

Thank you for the comment. I hope Tennessee can make this the rivalry it use to be.
2009 is number 1. Led to a natty.
Thank you for watching, brad.

Every person on earth except our DC new Palmer was gonna keep it.
Yep!
How is the Dale Jones interception of Mike Shula not on this list?
It's 1990-2023. But that play is a top 20 play of all time.
Cody took his helmet off why the ball was still live. Just sayin.
Why are there even plays that go in Alabama's favor in this top 20?

Pruitt was a joke.
Pruit will always be a prick for what he did to the Tennessee Football team. Glad that the current head coach in Josh Heupel is bringing it back
@@michaelodom182 yes sir

It was a rivalry video. Looking back at it i probably could have just done Tennessee highlights. All of those Bama highlights were very painful.
Peyton Manning was 3 and 1 against Alabama
@killacommieformommie who's Memphis
@killacommieformommie not many people even know Memphis has a football team you must had to dig pretty deep to remember that when are you a Memphis fan if so I'm sorry for you are you a bama fan and because Peyton Manning on Alabama you had to think of something to say
They beat us in 96, and I remember it well.
@@billycain9890they beat Peyton in 1996 that’s who they are.
@killacommieformommie0-4 against Florida
Guarantano should've never seen the field again after he changed the play and coughed it up. Nice guy. Awful QB
I agree 100%. I'm not sure I've never been that mad at a player in my life.
@@Volsfanatic-kn3xw GO back and watch the play in slow mo. The hole for the RB was wide ass open if he would've ran the play that was called. Terrible
@naturallaw3333 most of the decisions he made didn't make sense. I'm not sure how he was ever a starting SEC QB.
@@Volsfanatic-kn3xw Shows you how bad the rating services can be. He was a 5☆ if I'm not mistaken lol. Labeled a dual threat at that 🤣
