re: What is your favorite Verne Lundquist SEC football memory?

More of a lowlight than a highlight... when Mark Ingram was on his Heisman run, he went on and on about how Mark Ingram Sr was in prison and rooting for his son from jail. It was ridiculous how he kept bringing it up and he seemed obsessed by it. At one point he was telling the story again, and like 30 seconds later whatever team Bama was playing blew up the running play Bama called and there were like 3 defenders tying Mark Ingram up.

Verne's call: "And...Ingram's in jail."

Probably didn't realize what he'd done, but very bad timing and sounded awful the way he put it.
