Still don't know how he fit that ball into the receiver in the back of the end zone against LSU that year in the 4th quarter. Game winning TD if I remember right. Freaking dart from 30 or 40 yards out.

The reason it was called miracle on Markham is because at one point Arkansas was down 20-7 going into the fourth quarter and the offense was stagnant. So it was pretty much hopeless that the offense would be good enough to make a comeback win.

But that changed when RB Fred Talley bounced to the outside for a TD to make it 20-14.

Before the throw Matt Jones had a terrible night in the air so that throw was up for grabs but Decori Birmingham was at the right place and the right time.

Matt Jones wasn't known for his arm because of a previous shoulder injury but he did have electrifying throws in both seven overtimes.
