Arkansas vs. Ole Miss 2001 (7-OT)

Highlights of the seven-overtime thriller between the Matt Jones led Razorbacks and Eli Manning led Rebels. Arkansas would win 58-56 in the first ever seven-overtime game in NCAA history.

This is one of the greatest college games EVER and as an Arkansas fan who had just moved to Tupelo it was great.

[@jejeakle]

I remember watching this live. It was way past my bedtime but I kept saying "I'm staying up til this is over"

[@heatherphillips3712]

me too

[@derrickennemer5050]

This was the start of the man, the myth , the legend, that is known as Matt Jones.

[@DJ_Suckafree]

The greatest QB ever at Arkansas

[@booboodafoo3247]

Sad. How’d he end up doing in the NFL?

[@shepsangel62]

I was there at this Ole Miss/Arkansas 7 OT time back in 2001. What a game it was!!!

[@dustyflair]

I was there...>The emotional roller coaster was UNREAL!!!

[@fosterchild86]

Still remember wathcing this LIVE. Most amazing football game I've seen.

[@WARMACHINE2013]

Fitting that these same commentators ending up calling the Kentucky game two years later.

[@veronikacurtis835]

Can I please do the north texas vs fiu7 ot game..cant get it anywhere

[@WARMACHINE2013]

@@veronikacurtis835 I would if I had it!

[@ryanexsus]

I remember watching the entire thing. It was so taxing for me just to watch, I can only imagine how hard it was on the players. Eli Manning was and still is such a stud. We just made enough plays to win.

[@DrHogfan]

Jermaine Petty ! One of the best Hog LB's ever !

[@peytonledwell2876]

I remember this one. Classic SEC Game. it was ashamed somebody had to lose this game. SEC Classic right here...

[@montana663]

How did Matt Jones do it, fantastic

[@Sassafras-]

Have you ever thought about a highlight video for Jermaine Petty? That guy was a stud LB.

[@WARMACHINE2013]

I might!

[@80srocker67]

Matt Jones was unstoppable for the hogs.

[@ryanexsus]

It's crazy to think Matt Jones didn't start. When we finally put him in the fourth quarter the offense actually started scoring.

[@JasonRyanWilson410]

He did it to big blue nation too! RIP Jared Lorenzen #22

[@Michael-jw6et]

last year, when Arkansas played Ole Miss, Sam Pittman went for two instead of going into overtime. I guess he had no intention of having a game like this one. lol. I respect that.

[@cvillebuck]

Epic thriller. I remember watching this live. I didn't remember Eli Manning was the Ole Miss QB.

[@dustyflair]

David Buttsniff told the media after the game he just wanted to go home.....

[@sidneycashion7817]

Manning had the worst luck against us what a great game.

[@jamesonhills266]

wow!

[@rodgerrussell9024]

I wasn't born yet and I am not an SEC fan I am a B1G ten fan but id pull for Arkansas over Ole miss respect to ole miss though they have a good team

[@rodgerrussell9024]

I like Iowa in the big ten by the way #go hawks

[@stevefreeman1154]

I remember watching this game working out of town. We wanted to go bcs we were pretty close to Ole Miss but we didn't. We probably wouldn't have made it to work the next day if we had. I think it wasnt over til like 1am or something crazy. Great times...until the 6 OT game vs Tennessee the next week.

[@WARMACHINE2013]

The Tennessee game was the next season.

[@dustyflair]

yea I think we got back to Jacson at 4-5AM

[@Treydawg5]

classic game

[@tunneltime8885]

that baby face on matt jones tho! lol the making of a legend.

[@ChanceWPS30]

at the very end "7 overtime voctory. may never see it again". they had nooo idea haha

[@toritwopointoh]

love the shot at 5:10 of the stadium under construction

[@FaintAura]

Good ol' Jason Peters...

[@okrajoe]

A 7 overtime game - the only one in NCAA history. Talk about high stress -- pass the Tums and Rolaids.

[@WARMACHINE2013]

This isn't the only seven overtime game in history. Arkansas-Kentucky in 2003 went 7-OTs.

[@mikekw5]

No there is more than one...

[@jejeakle]

I swear, later that year, we (Arkansas) had an 8-oter

[@WARMACHINE2013]

+jejeakle They had a 6-OT game at Tennessee in 2002 and another 7-OT game in 2003 at Kentucky. There has never been an 8-OT game.

[@jejeakle]

+WARMACHINE2013 thx. Still, 2 7s and a 6 are a lot

[@AdmiralGigglesnort]

WPS !!!

[@ChanceWPS30]

[@michaelsebourn3425]

[@jejeakle]

I hope nobody made a drinking game of this

[@josephstork8897]

[@mansfieldtigers1]

Back is the nutt days. Worse days of my life

[@john182008]

[@kristimaurer1644]

[@marcpjoyner]

Matt Jones > Eli Manning

[@JJTurnip]

Not throwing checkdowns to receivers who started the season working at Applebee's lmao

[@_kevin7204]

Raif I think he retired the same year Eli won the Superbowl, and the Superbowl MVP.... but what do I know🤷‍♂️

[@catoni13]

How awful was Eli Manning. Toad
