This was a Thursday night game. I have a friend who was in the jail ministry. The jailers were watching the game and forgot about him in the cell with prisoners. Stay in the cell for over an hour.

Shaun Alexander was the man but I got that twitchy feeling seeing Dubose on the sidelines.

At 7:25, after Humphrey was already hurting them on the ground, he pulls up and throws a pass to Clay Whitehurst. Great call. However, watch the wacky score on the next play with Whitehurst to Lamonde Russell - no way that was drawn up that way. I can't believe I didn't remember it.

Musberger nailed it - "shades of Garo Yepremian".

Not a lot of great options here with today's date and games available on YouTube. No way, no how am I going to throw a loss into this thread, so the pickings were left a bit slim. That said, an in conference beatdown is always fun to relive...

September 15, 2012: Alabama @ Arkansas

I can't think if a regular season game in the last 10-15 years that had more buildup and excitement than this one.

The monumental life moments we remembered based on what Bama game was occurring. LOL Great story Rick!

That 1998 BYU game was actually on a Saturday. It was the first Alabama game that my now wife had ever attended. She also got to meet her future in laws, my parents before the game at Dreamland.

You right. But it was a Thursday night game. Because it was the jail mintery when it happen.
