re: How "lucky" was 1998 Tennessee?

Was luck involved? Sure, but it was an effort play Absolutely....Ratliff was having a great game that day overall. Nutt should have had Stoerner just plowing ahead on the snap in order to waste some time. Vols had just one time out left.

Ratliff knocked Burlsworth backwards so Stoener could trip over his ankle.

Ratliff only had one tackle in that game. Burlsworth was basically running him over every play until the very end. Billy Ratliff was a great player for us. He recovered fumbles in 3 consecutive games that year.
