Broke Van Pelt's teeth. Or was that Marino?
And the 2nd Pinstripe Bowl.Which year is "that year"? We beat Geno 3 years in a row and absolutely destroyed him every time.

Francois looked pretty bad. He wouldn't even let his own guys help him up.There was a TV shot of him on the sideline and I've never seen a QB so physically and mentally beaten.

Van Pelt in ‘92. My favorite Kevin Mitchell storyBroke Van Pelt's teeth. Or was that Marino?
My favorite is in 2001 against auburn in the dome. It’s just after 9/11. Flags on all the seats. Auburn knows about Freeney and they have planned for it. Their QB buys steaks for the OL if he doesn’t get sacked. First snap of the game, Freeney blows around the OT and puts the Auburn QB on his cornhole. Flag on the play. But still...
I believe we were outgained on the year too. How many 10 win teams can say that?That was future NFLer Jason Campbell who didn't lose a game his last year at Auburn. Freeney singlehandely won that game with two strip sacks. They outgained us by a bunch.
A 6-7 win team without Freeney. And as an aside ... He Was Blatantly Held 10 x a Game!I believe we were outgained on the year too. How many 10 win teams can say that?
Cool article. Doesn’t this part sound a little bit like someone we know?The 5 Toughest Guys I've Ever Faced | By Dwight Freeney
Freeney talking about the Vick game here. Remember still being in high school and stealing a hokies magnet off a car in the parking garage and it being around for a few years after. Idiot kids.
If you're talking mano a mano poundings - you have Freeney's 4.5 sacks on Michael Vick.
