Fantastic!

[@jamesthomas788]

Schnellenberger would that be Howard?

[@bellbrass]

None other than legendary Coach Howard Schnellenberger.

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

Anybody else notice, no holding penalties every other play, like today.

[@ChrisBrown-nj6gw]

Bear Bryant's last game at UK. That's some good stuff!

[@davesmith8877]

Thanks for the great video! Do you have the video of the Tennessee-UK games from 1950-1952?

[@Macca50]

The story of the game: Paul William Bryant.

[@chrisbath3956]

This would be Bear Bryant's first and only win against Tennessee as Kentucky coach, and this was the year after legendary Tennessee coach Robert Neyland retired. Bryant in seven tries could never defeat Neyland (5 losses and 2 ties vs Tennessee when Neyland was coaching the Vols). After that season Bryant would leave Kentucky to become coach at Texas A&M.

Love it.

[@jamesperryii9994]

The running game by UK reminds me of the 2019 season with Bowden, Rose, Smoke and Rodriergez

[@timothycunningham7352]

How much bigger the players are today.

[@richardernsberger5692]

The Vols offense was pretty hapless in this game--a lot of mistakes, bad blocking, bad passes. Uncharacteristic after the great success of the early '50s Tennessee teams.

[@franksantore2327]

Claude Sullivan was WAY better than the GREAT Caywood Ledford.
