Make this an annual event! Get Tennessee, VTech, North Carolina, Duke, NC State, & Virginia to rotate as the teams involved. Make it a Week 0 opening game, like the game in Ireland
I’m all for having games here more often, but as someone from Bristol, UT and VT are THE teams here. I don’t think any other pairing would be nearly as successful
I'm from Johnson City, just down the road from Bristol. I'm not a fan of the either team but I couldn't miss this one. Such a great game and event in general. FYI another reason they used Bristol is its divided by State St almost in the middle. Half in TN half in VA.
Not trying to be discouraging or appear as a hater, but he really needs to work on his narration. Every sentence has the same tone pattern: start high, make it sound a question, and then go to a low tone that almost sounds like he’s not even interested in his own script. I hope he tries to add more of his personality to videos like this.
We travelled from nashville for this game and its still the most insane game ive ever been to. The stadium was so huge i felt like i was in a city of football.
Yep beat both Florida and uga only to not win it. The wheels were coming off after Hurd took that hit against uga and was done with butch's shit. Really I don't blame him
8:56 This game completely changed when Wyatt Teller got flagged for back to back unsportsmanlike conduct penalties and the Hokies never got back on track the rest of the game.
Great video but you should’ve mentioned Virginia Tech G Wyatt Teller getting 2 cut blocking penalties in a row. It killed all of Tech’s momentum after going up 14-0
My dad and I got to go to this game! As soon as Michael Vick got on the jumbotron, we, along with all the other vol fans, booed him out of there. One fan next to us yelled "Keep him away from Smokey!"
Think this was INSANE? Think about this. Alabama and auburn playing the Iron Bowl at,get ready, TALLADEGA RACEWAY "Dega"is more than twice the size of Bristol. and almost exactly the same distance from both Alabama and Auburn. Talladega seats 90,000 after Allison Stands torn down. But they can get over 200,00 fans with temp seats down back stretch. Then jam up infield with super sized screens and more fans., S.E.C. has got to pull this off. 200,000 beer fueled fans,100,000 not liking the other 100,000 one tiny bit. Thanksgiving weekend, world's largest R V Park and Campground, thousands of fried turkeys, B B Q, 5 days and nights of total mayhem, one huge Jesus Revival on Sunday, Kenny and Jason in concert, passing the hats for Wounded Warrior, U.S.O.,and T to T. Saint Nick with the coin toss, I am not a fan of either but I sure as "hell yeah" will be there I'll drive down from Jersey with my Pop up.6 coolers of ice cold beer.a case of M.R.E.';s ready to War Dam Eagle,and Roll Tide Roll with the best of them. Of course I would be wearing orange and Blue.That kick six play is still in my head.I watch replays every week.on you tube. That S.E.C. Kingdom has GOT to pull this off.
@@EmbracetheGrind Absolutely brother. welcome to road trip it.Got that pop up. So much area at Dega to R.V.it.I am E-mailing the S.E.C. today about this.I just sent one to NASCAR and the track.You be Roll Tide Roll,me War Dam Eagle All weekend Auburn fans will be showing on Giant Screens that Kick 6 Alabama killing play.Over and over and over. This has got to happen..
I randomly think about this game once a year
Same. A weird game, but in a good way
I do too im not even a fan of either team
Same
same
I would like to have this as a rivalry and have a Colosseum Trophy as a reward.
Also if VT haven't reused them since, they need to bring back these hokie stone unis back, shit goes hard.
@@CiviGG Vol fan here and I gotta agree!
The logistics of this game was just incredible
It’s absolutely ridiculous how they pulled this off
Make this an annual event! Get Tennessee, VTech, North Carolina, Duke, NC State, & Virginia to rotate as the teams involved. Make it a Week 0 opening game, like the game in Ireland
Nah imagine Bama or UGA vs OSU or UM!
@@theclamhammer4447 No man, it's a TN speedway, let the Appalachian states have it.
What game in Ireland??
@@KadinMcNatt See the FSU/GT game. It's a long-standing tradition
I’m all for having games here more often, but as someone from Bristol, UT and VT are THE teams here. I don’t think any other pairing would be nearly as successful
I am so glad TN won the first battle and I do hope we get more battles in the future!!!
we got the mlb coming to bristol next year :)
as a tech fan this is still one of the most fun games i’ve watched

Same!
you that you were not previously a Vol fan until you attended the game***
@@greenwave819 Haha no still hate the Vols
3:01 there were no Washington Commanders in 1961
They're still the Redskins as far as I'm concerned.
Exactly
It’s because ppl will sue him if he says redskins

Jerod Evans was so good. he shoulda stayed in school his senior year
Glad you got the issues taken care of. Another great video brother thanks
Darrell Taylor’s quote before this game was iconic

The year Tennessee should've won the East, but a Butch Jones led team can only go so far. Had so much talent and didn't know what to do with it.
He could out recruit anyone... Couldn't quite push them far enough

I got to march in the game following the Battle of Bristol, it was surreal experience to march in a racetrack!
I wish they’d do this more often
It’s Bristol baby!
Dobbs was something different at Tennessee, such an aggressive runner and a brilliant offensive mind.
Shout out Jennings, my high schools best NFL alum!
This was such a time to be alive as a CFB fan
Great video but you should’ve mentioned Virginia Tech G Wyatt Teller getting 2 cut blocking penalties in a row. It killed all of Tech’s momentum after going up 14-0
Would be cool if Kentucky had Tennessee played a game here
I think it would be better if two teams that could match up well against each other played. Tennessee would obviously beat Kentucky they always do.
Iron ball here would be sick and I hate both Alabama and Auburn lol
i was in middle school and worked this game and was able to get in for free after and jus wow.. i still remember the expierence like it was yesterday.
I was at this game, special memory for sure.
I live right in the middle of these 2 schools. 2 1/2 for me to get to each school so for my area this was a huge deal.
I went to this game & college game day!
Would be awesome if they ran a race during the game
This was the coolest football game ever. I hate that it hasn't been done again.
Keep up the good work ❤
Imagine a national championship game at Bristol
As a hokies fan I did not understand all the fumbles. It mad me so mad we had momentum in such a big stage and just lose the ball in key moments
its crazy these two dont play eachother...like at all
I was there boiii go vols
Was at this game, it was cool.
Bristol native, wish there were more games here 😢
It was impressive the big Bruton Smith was able to do it
I was there that night. The greatest game ever played.
I was at this game lmao. Have a big panorama of it in my room
I actually went to this game, and I have the stuff on my wall to prove it.
I remember seeing Kamara for the first time an thinking he was going to be a stud
3:04 there was no “Washington Commanders” back then
I can assure you, they ran out of beer in the middle of the 2nd quarter.
Would love a video on the rise of D2 Ferris State.
It's the Washington Redskins
I'm just glad to love the team that smoked the piss out of VT in the largest football game ever! GBO!!!
I live in Bristol
Wait, there wasn’t already technology at BMS for instant replay? NASCAR is so dirty.
I was there!!! GBO 🍊
The Redskins played there not the commies 😊
Why don't Virginia tech and Tennessee more often in college football
Can you cover Western Michigan
GoVolsGo
Why play again? VT can't pour pi$$ out of a boot. You really want to watch this now? Bad idea unless you can get someone else to play Tennessee.
My dad and I got to go to this game! As soon as Michael Vick got on the jumbotron, we, along with all the other vol fans, booed him out of there. One fan next to us yelled "Keep him away from Smokey!"
Was that same fan barking? Because that might have been me 😭
@@grbhighlights9401 shit, it might've been!
@grbhighlights9401 were you in the Allisons part of the arena?
Your rude, Vick is a legend. And you will never amount to anything close to what he has accomplished. Your a bum just like your father
In 1961 that was no such thing as the washington commanders 🤡
Bro please stop talking in that newscaster accent. I want to watch this video but I literally cannot with that voice inflection.
