Tennessee fan edits John Ward’s voice over highlights from Alabama win

John Ward wasn’t able to call the game between Tennessee and Alabama on Saturday night, but one fan came up with a creative spin and edited his voice into a video released on social media to pay tribute to him.

Here’s a look at that after the Vols defeated the Crimson Tide, 52-49 to ascend into the top-five of the rankings and garner even more national attention injury the midst of what looks like could be part of Alabama’s fall from grace:

Ward served as the Voice of the Vols from 1964-1998 after graduating from Tennessee in 1954. The last football game Ward called was Tennessee’s national title victory over Florida State.

And the way things are looking for Tennessee right now, it’s not out of the picture for the team to make another run for the big game.
