Orion is claiming a 98 degree aparrent fov 7X32 binoculars for $119.
It advertises a 14 degree fov which does translate into a 98 degree
aparrent fov. I've never heard of an eyepiece with this kind of afov.
Can anyone verify this is really true?

It is certainly physically possible, but I, too, have never heard of an AFOV
that big. I wonder how sharp it is at the edges. The eye relief must be
really short, too.
