I've seen us lose in amazing, unlucky, spectacular fashion. I don't think I've ever seen us pull one out of our asses like that in all my years as a Razorbacks fan.

The closest I can't think of was Matt Jones days- he was magic at times but wow I don't know even know this was just fantastic.

I guess M.O.M was something like it, but this win required multiple crazy arse things happening for us in the final minutes.

I'm 38 and can't recall anything like this happening before. Amazing feeling to be on this end of it

I'm just now peeling myself off the ceiling. Can't believe we pulled that out.

You have to go back a good while but I remember us winning a few multi-overtime games. I can't remember pulling off two OTs like this in a season though and certainly not one with a miracle play to stay alive and go on to win.

I think we knocked the horseshoe out of Gus' arse in that 4th overtime, and kept it for ourselves.

Enos really opening it up as a play caller as he's gained confidence in BA.

For all the damn injuries we've had this year and have a game like this is just mind blowing! Don't know what to think! Soooo happy right now!

This.
They had us dead to rights on game ending plays...TWICE.
Finally we're the ones pooping out four leaf clover-shaped horseshoes and winning a game inexplicably instead of our opponent.

I could not believe he went for two, twice. Heck, after the 4th and 25 , I guess he figured we didn't have anything to lose.

A couple things were going through my mind when they decided to go for two.
First was I thought I might have missed something and been in a short coma awakening to a third overtime where we had to go for two. But I convinced myself that no, we were still in the first overtime.
Then I remembered the 1984 Orange Bowl where Nebraska went for two instead of kicking a PAT which would have tied Miami with less than a minute to go in the game. A tie would have mostly insured Nebraska of a National Championship as they were undefeated and untied at that point. The two point conversion failed and Miami won the National Championship. There was no overtime as is now the case. It was pretty risky to say the least but immediately following the game Miami coach Schnellenberger said he had no doubt Osborne would go for the win (I doubted that he was sincere when he said this).
In today's game it made some sense as Arkansas had the momentum as a result of the TD following the miracle play but I wondered how much of that may have evaporated after the previous failed two point conversion attempt where the defensive penalty saved us. There was also the what would have been game winning FG which was blocked at the end of regulation as well and I guess in hindsight it was the right call to go for two and kind of an interesting contrast to what we witnessed in the Auburn game a couple of weeks ago.

Stirred up by their own alumni that misinterpreted the rule. It's been kind of funny to watch.

It was the MANNER in which we pulled it out of our arse that made it so unique.
