Watching 2001 Florida-Tennessee as is tradition. Tennessee's skill position group was LOADED.

Should have won another NC that year.

I watched that game from a tent in Oman. Will never forget that one.

They definitely should have beaten LSU, but I don't believe Tennessee would have beaten that Miami team, which is probably the greatest of all time.
 
Two crazy stats from this game:

1) Tennessee was the #4 team in the country going against the #2 team in the country (who had one loss) and was an 18 point dog.

2) Going into this game, Fulmer was 2-7 against Florida. He was 35-2 against the rest of the SEC East.
 
I assume you guys have seen these clips of Fulmer before and after the 2001 game:

The first one never gets old.

"I don't know how many people in this country believe, that really doesn't matter either. It only matters what these men in this room believe. And how about taking it to the field, and getting it done, like a Tennessee football team is capable of doing...and you can play with anyone in the country. You're at a championship level. You have played yourself here."

"That doesn't mean that you're going to be perfect all the time, because you're not, but you can darn sure lay it on the line every snap that you're out there, every play that you're out there."

"You come into this locker room when it's all over with absolutely zero regret. Whatever is on that scoreboard so be it. For 60 minutes, you lay it on the line for every play that you're out there and you'll win this football game in a big way."

"We get in that ball game and we keep pounding that rock!"


Mother of God.
 
F*** the OU game, F*** the last ten years, F*** that stupid ass stadium, F*** Steve Spurrier, F*** Horse Face McElwain, F*** VH3, F*** Rex Grossman, F*** Tim Tebow, F*** Danny Wuerffel, F*** Jabar Gafney, and every last Florida Gator can sit and spin.

This bullsh¡t ends today. I'm tired of it
 
Woke up a few minutes ago here in the hotel, and definitely can't go back to sleep. Heading out for Gainesville in about an hour. The damn streak ends this afternoon.

Last nights Braves game was pretty fun, and the Marlins new park is really cool. I'd post a couple pics, but my phone, or the website, won't seem to cooperate. Driving around South Florida has really given me an appreciation for living somewhere that doesn't have toll roads. They're EVERYWHERE down here. I bet we'll end up paying nearly $100 in tolls in just three days.

1. LET'S ******* GO!

2. That night was one of the best nights ever during my 4 years on the hill.

3. I love TS more than any man should probably admit to in public.

4. I do not understand how John Henderson and I are both from the same species...Jeez Us.
 
Starting off with whiskey in the coffee. I've got an unopened bottle of 21 year old Bushmills which I would dearly like to crack open tonight, but that depends on how the game goes.

Brown's ribs sound great but I just get too anxious to do anything that requires much interaction on big gamedays. I'm too busy walking the floor and thinking about football. I made up a lasagna last night that's sitting in the fridge ready to just throw in the oven whenever we want it. Everything's gotta be out of the way as much as possible.
