Not sure. I just recall listening to Mike and Mike one morning several years ago and Golic was on this hour plus long tirade about scores being run up in not only college but the NFL as well. It was good radio !!!
Sure do miss listening to Mike and Mike on the drive in to work. Keyshawn, J-Will and Max pale in comparison.

You serious? Thought everybody knew of the Cheeseburger mecca of In-N-Out Burger on the left coast. You must dine on them before you die. When I get off the plane in Vegas, my first stop is always In & Out for their mighty tasty Double Double. Place only sells Hamburgers, Cheeseburgers and Double Doubles, and is SLAMMED from the moment the door opens till it closes. Size of a Burger King.

San Antone is as far LEFT as I've been. That's years ago. I'm a Southern & East Man. Sweden, Denmark & Holland but no Cal. Gonna make it to Vegas soon though. Thanks.

Never had either but Whataburger seems like a natural in Knoxville with their Orange and White signature colors.

Whataburgers pretty good, but the MEAT is thin. Order a double (Pricey) to get it right. Plus, It IS close to Tennessee Orange. Mainly in S.Alabama S.Miss and Florida Areas. Three trips a Month will do it for you; although the double order line usually goes around the Building X2. Putting Burger King Out wherever they open a new Whataburger.

Never had a Whataburger - from your description it sounds like Freddy's here in Indiana.
They do a nice 'steak style' burger (basically start with a burger patty and smash it flat as you cook it so the edges get a little crispier), but as you mention have to order the double to get a decent amount of meatiness.

There's still a Blue Circle over in the Tri-Cities area.
It's obviously not related to the chain any longer but the folks that run it do things pretty close to how the old Blue Circle stands used to do things...it's pretty dang good.

Up here in the great North land, our go to slider burger joint is White Castle. They're decent as far as sliders go and on par with Krystal in my opinion.
As far as general, 'fast' food type good burger chains go though - my vote is 5 guys all day.

I like 5 Guys also... until I get to the register and my burger and fry is 19 freaking dollars!!!!

Not all are impressed with running up the scores and stats against weak teams.
Speak for yourself. It is refreshing to see TN handle business again, because in all honesty, over the last decade we haven't. GA State and the like should have no business beating us or even keeping it close.

Will you be impressed if we score 50 on our three cupcakes?
I only get upset when we get blown out by the teams we are supposed to be competing with.

Yeah right. I am sure you were all smiles when we barely beat UK last year. Bet you were happy with the OM, Pitt and Perdue games.

Let’s say this year we only beat SC by 7. You gonna be cool with that? Or are you gonna complain? I think the latter. Will I be impressed with scoring 50+ points against 3 cupcakes? Yes. Why? Because that shows continued progress of our offense.

What happens if we only score 20 or 30 against the cupcakes? Does that show progress? No it doesn’t. You would be complaining about it and rightfully so.

I don't recall ever complaining about a win.
The only way you show progress is in the win-loss column.

Not really. Did we score 62 points On an SEC team under Pruitt? No we didn’t. That’s improvement. Did we tank inside the top 12 in scoring under Pruitt? No. That’s improvement. All of that is progress.

Again, if we don’t blow out the 3 cupcakes this year, then there is reason to be concerned. Do you not see this?

I was as mad after the Ga. St. game as I have ever been at Vol football.
Of course, not routing the lessor teams is reason for concern.
Scoring 50 points against such competition does not show progress, only an improved w-l does that. I have always felt stats were best left to the fan boys grasping for something to brag about.

I am happy with any win in Columbia, South Cackalacky. They have played us tough there for 20 years.

I'm dating myself here, but Blue Circle burger back in the 60s and 70s, was a staple on team football trips. A dozen of those "slider' style burgers and a milkshake for about $2.00... dang those were the good ole days.
We used to have "Scotties". You could sit at the counter and watch the " chef" throw out frozen square patties on the grill. Close to a Krystal burger. Another store in Tullahoma was the Jiffy Dip that sold really good sliders. One day a friend and I had a contest and I won by eating twenty-two Jiffy burgers. I was about eleven years old. 😁

Whataburger has a FANTASTIC hatch green chilie burger.
