Stemming from EG's comments in the Tennessean, I wonder if you all could help me resolve a little controversy.

I have a friend coming into town for the LSU game. He is a Michigan fan who hates Fulmer because of his successful campaign to split the '97 title between Michigan and Nebraska. It is widely speculated Fulmer did this in reaction to Peyton getting snubbed for the Heisman Trophy in favor of Charles Woodson.

In order to express his disdain, my friend is going to wear a maize and blue No. 2 jersey to the game.

My question is: will he get crap for it from the Orange Nation?

I say yes. He says we are too obtuse to get the dig. :hi:

I can't imagine why anyone would notice/care. I certainly would not.

CPF split the NC! I never knew he had that much power! If he has that much power you would think he would bring one to UT.

I love this. Are you sure you're talking about Michigan and not bammer.

The all new CSI starring Coach Phillip Fulmer as the ultimate bad guy! lol

I'd say most people will not even know what it is unless it has Woodson's name on the back and even then most people would either be too young to know what it's all about or be ambivalent.

Charles Woodson will be the furthest thing from my mind on the day of the UT vs. LSU game.

First off I doubt anyone will careless about anything Michigan. Secondly, tell him to stop living life in the past.

He says Woodson was the best player that year regardless of stats...so why'd he beat Tommie Frazier?

Why was Eddie even in Knoxville? I went to the UT Sports page today and there was a photo of Eddie and Phil at Fulmer's press conference.

I read this article in the paper. The whole heisman comments didnt bother me. The heisman is a media and ESPN award which means nothing at all to me. Remember Spurrier won his b/c all the good black athletes were fighting in Nam.


What got me is that he commented to CPF that he still thinks we cheated in the Citrus bowl in '97 with illegal cleats. Is this a big deal to these OSU fans? Did we really cheat??

I was kinda young then and the whole internet thing wasnt around. SO what is the real story behind CleatGate??

We did "cheat".

Our cleats were longer than allowed under the rule in the book.

It was about equal to wearing the wrong color jersey.

Eddie George is a whiner.
