Really? Nebraska was a powerhouse in the mid-90s. If anything, Tennessee was trying to prove that they were on Nebraska's level. I'm just glad that Tee Martin led the team right down the field for that score . . . setting up what would be a magical season for the Vols in 1998.
This is actually one of the most impactful games in Tennessee football history. Fulmer realized Tennessee needed to be much tougher and far more physical, like this Nebraska team. Fulmer took that lesson to the 1998 National Championship.
@zalilcortez8917 who did you barely beat in the Rose Bowl game? Oh yeah a mediocre Washington state team! Michigan's regular season schedule was awful! BTW I'm a 49ers fan Harbaugh is a cheater just like Pete Carroll at USC!
Tennessee never matched up well with Nebraska back then. People who know football better than me said Nebraska consistently chop blocked, and got away with it!
Tennessee had participated in the 1998 Orange Bowl and is along those Southern teams in the national championship game in the Southern United States in all of college football, men's and women's college basketball since 1992 along with: 1993: Alabama, Miami (FL), North Carolina, Texas Tech 1994: Arkansas, Duke, Florida State, Louisiana Tech, North Carolina 1995: Miami (FL) 1996: Georgia, Tennessee 1997: Florida, Florida State 1998: Kentucky 1999: Duke 2000: Florida State, Virginia Tech 2001: Florida State, Oklahoma 2002: Oklahoma 2003: Tennessee 2004: Georgia Tech, LSU, Oklahoma, Tennessee 2007: Florida 2008: LSU, Memphis, Tennessee 2009: Florida, Oklahoma 2012: Alabama, Kentucky, LSU 2013: Alabama, Louisville 2014: Kentucky 2016: Alabama, Clemson, North Carolina 2017: Alabama, Clemson, Mississippi State, North Carolina 2018: Alabama, Georgia 2019: Baylor 2020: Clemson, LSU 2021: Alabama 2022: North Carolina
Nebraska played a far better team in the bowl set up, compared to whashington St? Michigan squeaked a win out against?!!! LoL Neb got the better TROPHY anyways 🎉
Should've been fsu playing Nebraska! The sec champ was contracted to the sugar bowl and this one year they broke it because they wanted Peyton to ride of into the sunset with the vols having a realistic shot if Michigan lost ? * Not saying FSU would've beat Nebraska, an even if they it didnt matter because Michigan won. But any other year pre BCS era forward into now 1998-present , fsu would've played Nebraska I the orange bowl and Tennessee would've played who ever I the sugar bowl like the sec had every year in history besides 95 because Florida was #2 and the only other undefeated under the bowl alliance rules but Tennessee wasn't in the top 2 and like i said ncaa tri some b.s. to give Peytons non big game winning ass one last dig effort at a winner!
@@sgt.smuggypuss2131 he won the championship the next year? And you say idk what I'm talk in about! Tennessee won it the next year ya jerkoff! Not Peyton. How did Peytons last chance turn out I cant remember? Haha. At the very least the game wouldn't have been over at halftime and Peyton wouldn't have been benched for playing like shit, " which he did in every big game in college I might add " and not had to see his back up who never played a college game march right down the field and score a touchdow twice against a defense that made him look like he was a back up and he could only muster 3 points against all night! And feel that much more inadequate than he probably already did! Had fsu played em. Or maybe I'm mistaken and what I took for a look of complete demoralization on the sidelines was really him just daydreaming and reminiscing about the good ole' Citrus Bowls of years past?
@ SGT Smuggy Puss. This was Peyton last college game. He was in the nfl the next year dipshit! So it's you who obviously have no idea what your talking about. Next time ask your boyfriend and double check before making a fool of yourself. By not knowing the most basic football knowledge which most casuals even know.
All Nebraska heard for the entire month leading up was "SEC this and SEC that." Huskers had your "SEC" that night.

They couldn't do it today. Bet that
Josh Dobbs got Nebraskas number though😂
I was a kid when this game happened and to this day I know they did their best to bring the title back to Lincoln. Love Nebraska football win or lose.
Steve Pedersen should never fired Frank Solich.
Steve Pedersen made the biggest mistakes ever.

Nebraska would've murdered Michigan.
Like we murdered you this year? Sorta funny how Scott Crybaby Frost has the flipped record of Harbaugh right now this season
@@zalilcortez8917 see you in the big 10 championship this year
@Mighty Megatron let's root for meeeeechigan cause we owe those ladies an ass whoopin go big red

I watched this game when it aired. Didn't realize how biased the announcers were (it seems). It sure felt like they didn't want my Huskers to win.
AP didn’t wanna believe the reality of how dominant NEBRASKA was. Whether it was Tennessee or michigan, 🌽 of won by 4-5 TDS
This channel should've kept making highlight videos. For a long time this was the only source on RUclips for some older games.

Brady didn't start for that wolverines team, he was Brian greaces backup

You don't know what you're talking about. It wasn't peyton's last chance. He won the championship the next year.

1998 OB, not 1997. End of 1997 season.
Back when Nebraska players were a team full of juiced up steroid players lol.
That's back when manning was assaulting the trainer girls.
Actually she was an adult full time employee
