Run, Lindsay, run

It's Georgia-Florida week. I'll have more to say later -- I'm thinking about just posting a list of things I have done at the Georgia-Florida game, but I need to check various statutes of limitations first.


For now, I'll just put up the Lindsay Scott video with the Larry Munson call. If you're reading a blog called SEC Expats I assume you've already seen and heard this. But for Georgia fans, this is "It's a Wonderful Life" -- you pull it out every season and enjoy it all over again.

I think this is the greatest play in the history of college football -- I admit to being unbelievably biased. But think of the stakes and the odds: losing to your hated rival, 90 seconds left, a #1 ranking on the line... and you throw a 92-yard touchdown pass to win the game.

And while I'll accept other arguments about the greatest PLAY, when it comes to the greatest CALL, nominations are closed. This is it.

Tommy,
There aren't many things I'll agree on with you this week but I'll give you this: that's a great call!
GO GATORS.

And the best part of the call is Larry's ramblings . . . after the play is over, leading up to the perfect ending. Do you know how much property will be destroyed tonight?

I heard that call while crossing the Alabama/Ga. line, headed east on I-20. All weekend, Georgia people just had smiles on their faces.

Hey Tommy,

When Tim breaks Walker's record this weekend are you going to put up a clip of Mic Hubert making that call. "Oh My"!!!

GO GATORS!!!!!

Hey, y'all, Tomlinson's alive! Turns out he DIDN'T commit suicide after the Tennessee game!

Yes, that was a great call. I hadn't heard it in a long time. LOVED the way he said the whole stadium fell down.
