It's my opinion that there isn't a better example of "snatching defeat from the jaws of victory" than Clint Stoerner fumbling against UT.
A couple 'Bama-Arkansas games under Shula have to rank up there. Remember 2003, where a 31-10 lead late in the third quarter quickly erased because the 'Bama defense forgot how to tackle. Or the most frustrating game I've ever watched, the 2006 game in Fayetteville. Tiffin missed three game winning opportunities.

These are right up there!
Arkansas didn't beat Bama as much as Bama beat itself.
I was in Iraq watching the Bama 31-10 meltdown and was in Fayetteville to watch Tiffin gift wrap the game for Arkansas. That was the game where Mitch Mustain thew a TD in OT to win, I think.

2007 Clemson game where all we needed was a 1st down or a 4th down stop. Clemson ended up kicking gamewinning FG as the clock ran out.
