You are an example of the type of UT fan who is getting exactly the program you deserve. Expect mediocrity, get mediocrity. Enjoy Tampa/Atlanta/Nashville/Shreveport or what other garbage bowl we play in in. It's exactly where we should be with fans like you.

We're NOT mediocre! We have one of the top football programs in the country. Was it not just 2 years ago that Tennessee went 10-2, played in the SEC championship game, gave a clearly more talented Auburn team everything they wanted, and then went on to the Cotton Bowl and thoroughly spanked Texas A&M? You want mediocrity? Look at Alabama or South Carolina and where there program has been the last 10 years.

Considering what our team was expected to do this year, I'll gladly accept Tampa/Atlanta/Nashville/Shreveport. Like I said before, 10-3 with a bowl victory would be more than what I expected out of this team.

How far have our expectations dropped if we're comparing UT to freaking South Carolina? Heck, USC has only 3 bowl wins in their entire NCAA history so I guess we're all way out of line with our expectations.

Well in 9 years we have played for 4 and won 2 of them that is 40% competing and 20% winning. In that time Auburn has been in 3 and won 1. Fla has been in 1 and won 0, Georgia 3 and won 2 LSU 3 and won 2, Alabama 1 and 1 and Arkansas 1 and 0. So we have been to more and have 2 wins the same as many as ga. and LSU. Seems to me those other schools better run their staff off as well.

What does 1999 have to do with it? I'll break it down to a level even Fulmerites can understand: there have now been eight seasons played since we won an SEC title. If that doesn't illuminate things for you, go kneel before your shrine to TCHFCATUTK and make your reservations for the Chick Fil A Bowl, you'll feel better.

Here's the thing. You can't give Fulmer too much credit for somewhat fixing his own problem.

We ARE mediocre. The fact that we haven't WON anything tangible in 8 years proves that. A GREAT team doesn't get blown out by Arkansas. We didn't even show up. We are becoming Boston College, Maryland, Oregon, Texas Tech, Iowa, etc.

I understand 1998 was special and I still shed a tear when I watch games from the season. However, I have the team FIVE years before I expected another SEC Title. It's been 8. I'm pretty sure I've had it.

You're right. I forgot this is TCHFCATUTK's first season. He had nothing to do with last year's disaster.

it doesn't matter. our recruiting just took another hit. butch davis announced as UNC head coach. i think we play them in acouple years. another team to lose to. watch folks and see what a great coach can do with a medicore program. within 3 years they will win the ACC and wipe the floor with the VOLS. it will still be ok though because phil will be here. hoooorah.
