Listen: Relive Tennessee’s thrilling Hail Mary through the voice of Bob Kesling

Tennessee won what may go down as the best game of the entire 2016 season on Saturday afternoon against Georgia in Athens.
Late in the fourth quarter, a long touchdown pass from Bulldogs QB Jacob Eason to WR Riley Ridley put Georgia ahead 31-28, but the Vols weren’t going to give up that easily.
Celebration penalties on Georgia and an offside on the ensuing kickoff put the Vols within range of a last-second Hail Mary attempt and, well, Tennessee’s prayers were answered.
Listen to radio announcer Bob Kesling’s call of the winning touchdown, a 43-yard bomb from QB Joshua Dobbs to WR Jauan Jennings:

This is shaping up to be a great season for Tennessee and, if the Vols can continue winning games, Kesling’s call of Saturday’s Hail Mary will go down as one of the iconic calls in Tennessee history.
