I’m 29 but my dad was a big Razorback fan. I remember Jones well, one of my favorite Arkansas players of all time.

I was at the game in LR when the Miracle on Markham happened and Jones completed a Hail Mary TD to win over the Saban led LSU tigers and clinch the West

Miracle on Markham
that nickname has always been so cringey. there was nothing "miraculous" about it, a la aub/uga or bluegrass miracle. it was just a good play. incidentally, there may not be many people old enough to remember that saban's lsu defenses occasionally collapsed at the end of a close game. it was his kryptonite. that game was one of them. there was no miracle

and i don't think there's many lsu fans who don't remember matt jones.

I was there also. We played like hammered dog shite the entire game, but somehow managed that late 4th quarter drive to win the game. Thought War Memorial would crumble and fall (not due to the stadium being a POS) when Matt Jones threw the TD in the corner of the end zone to Decori Birminghem.

I was the guy in the red hog shirt at WMS. You probably saw me.
