I am proud to say that is my son in the red jacket who describes his first time to call the Hogs at DWRRS. 
It was actually the “streaker” game vs. Ole Miss with Matt Jones at QB; a beautiful, crisp, sun-splashed day in the Ozarks and a big win over the Rebels.
After that game he got pictures with both Big Red and 2 cheerleaders. When I asked him which he liked best, he said simply “both.” Good times…and now he is a freshman at the University.
The game where Matt Jones showed his basketball skills by SLAM DUNKING over the crossbar after about a 60 yd TD run… those were the days!!!
For some reason I don’t recall the goal post dunk you mention but certainly I remember the streaker with a Colonel Reb golf club head cover (at least that is what it looked like) located in a strategic location. But I also recall us getting a touchdown in the south endzone when the OM kickoff returner fumbled the kickoff and went after it nonchalantly, not realizing Tom Crowder (I believe I have the name right) was streaking down the field himself in a less controversial way. I am not sure when the rule changed but I am fairly certain it would not be a touchdown today but at the time the returner still had to secure the ball and take a knee to get the touchback if the ball was in the field of play. Regardless, it was a great hustle play by Crowder.
Crowder was an incredible special teams player. I loved watching him.
I well remember Matt Jones dunk. It was his Senior day. He had said that he would love to do that, but it had to happen when Arkansas had a lead because he knew there would be a penalty. I found it on YouTube, check out the play beginning at the 3:29 mark.

Matt Jones and Jared Hicks haven’t connected like that since…oh nm.
Hey. I have never seen so many highlights of a Kentucky Wildcat in an Ark/OM game.
The streaker game and the Matt Jones dunk were two different games. The streaker was '02; the dunk was '04.
Yeah, thanks for confirming what I had figured out from watching the highlight clip of the game from 2004 (guess that is why I did not remember the dunk as my friend’s tickets were in the SEZ and it would have happened right in front of me). So, I am thinking the touchdown I referenced where Crowder outhustled the OM kickoff returner was 2002 as well. That makes sense since my son was probably 5 at the time (not 6 as he says in the video). They were both good days for the Hogs.
