Wow that Keith Burns Code Red Defense

[Peter Porker]

I've been watching old Hog games on YouTube lately and I forgot how aggressive Keith Burns was.

[Inhogswetrust]

I remember being there. The KY receivers were open the whole game. If not for a big IT return and the D line getting to the QB we probably don't win it. It was a fun game.

[J-Five]

Always enjoyed watching that "Code Red" defense.  11 guys all on the same page, reacting and flying to the ball...Wish we had that now.  Maybe we do, time will tell...

[Polecat]

I recall a few times Burns had the defense go to the opposing teams' locker room and bang on the door and yell "CODE RED". Not sure we've had a DC that was that into intimidation since him

[jusgtohogs]

JMHO, but team speed sure had a lot to do with their ability to be aggressive.

That clip didn't have the play where Kennedy knocked the receiver's helmet off and it went spinning back down the field about ten yards.

[Sho Nuff]

This one may be a better representation of that swarming defense.

It was a FAST D! Kennedy Brought the WOOD!

That OM offense looked like a soup sandwich against our D.


Side note: looked like we should have scored 50 on them...

[Hogs run wild]

That's the D-fense bama aspires to be... j/k on a serious note, that was a great season until Tenner.

We had some mean SOBs on defense back then. They probably took after Kieth Burns' personality.

Supposedly did that on the road against number 1 Tennessee in 1998.

[Hog Fan...DOH!]

Having future NFL starters on D sure does help.

I believe they went to the buses Alabama was on and started rocking them as well. Think I saw that on the identity theft of Mitch Mustain

This was my first Razorback game. My wife's friend from Mississippi lived next door to us in Little Rock. Her daddy came up to visit and had tickets to the game. Being Ole Miss fans they were more interested in drinking than driving and offered to let me and another Arkansas friend have two tickets if we drove. I trold the story of that drive on Drive Time Sports and they played it as a commercial for years... LOL.!! We heard Hotty Toddy all the way there but the drive home was silent. One of the best years of my life...

And it sucks he never was healthy enough to go big time in the NFL. He was a rare talent.

It is my hope that with the implementation of the 3-4 and an aggressive, attacking style of defense, that this will be what we will see in the future from our defense under Paul Rhoads.

[GuvHog]

No doubt. With a set of healthy knees, he might have been a Hall of Fame inductee.

Yep he was a killer against Texas too.

[code red]

Our LB looked like LB's back then.

we beat Tennessee that year (98)

[Karma]

Do you mean metaphorically?

[Hogs run wild]
