I am the reason we have played bad

Saturday was a terrible day for me. We had to put down our 10yr old pup due to cancer. The bright spot was that my new Vols FrostBuddy arrived so I used it for my adult beverages during the game. 1st time using it and I think bad mojo came with it. I barely watched the game, didn’t yell once & just wasn’t into it.

I watched the whole game....live...I take some of the blame as well. In the past I just went to bed and when we won, I got to see it on YouTube.

I am here to confess, and humbly ask for you to as well.. I have been wearing Dooley Orange Pants only for Oklahoma and Arkansas. To my defense since we beat OU I thought they were good luck, but after the 2nd time I realized I was personally making the offense play bad again.

I am the reason we had no offense those 2 games. I won't wear the Dooley pants anymore. I sent us back to 2012. What have you done to curse the program? Our confessions will allow us to be better again.

In this thread, let us confess what we have done to cause this seasons problems.

Our offense should no longer be a problem. Sorry guys.

I think God has a tremendous sense of humor. He probably lol'ed at the original post.

I agree and disagree. Agree about Boss having a sense of humor. Any entity that creates the gooney birds (albatross) and prairie dogs HAS to have a sense of humor. But God doesn't care about football, not that I asked Him. He's in the business of reconciling humans to Himself, after Adam and Eve made a mess of His relationship with us. Your good book only mentions sport when it tells that ole king Abimelech, who desired Rebekah. See, Isaac, fearing kingie would kill him and take possession of beautiful Becky, lied and said she was his sister. But Abi was looking down from a balcony and saw Isaac SPORTING with her, and discovered she was actually his wife. Of course, he got mad about that, but knew better than to make things worse. Cause Boss would step in if he did. That's the only time the Good Book mentions sport.

Our entire team were wearing those pants. We call them orange britches, but ignore the fact that Dooley cursed them forever.

Incorrect. Baseball ("In the big inning") and tennis ("Joseph served in Pharaoh's court") are also clearly mentioned.

Now you have gone through the self realization step successfully and know better. I respect you admitting you watched the game just in the future never watch the vols again!

I told my wife Sunday morning that it was fault that we lost. I didn't wear my lucky orange boxer briefs that I always wear for every big basketball, football or baseball game.

The vols travel hundreds of miles to entertain us and represent the state and you can't put the underwear on!!!! We just pick on you until we realize a lot of us personally caused the loss. Now we learn our lesson for next week. Boxers for the gators please.

I feel a little responsible. Was on a cruise where they have a sports bar (Playmakers) and everyone wears their colors for game day. The entire bar my wife and I included laughed the Gumps outta there after the Vandy miracle. In hindsight should have played it a little closer to the vest.

I will confess here as well, I was really enjoying in the Vandy win, to the point of ‘this is going to be such a great rest of the night, to the point assuming a Vol win later lol.. it was such a Saturday of highs and lows 😂

A pattern exists going back to 1988 that if I work on gameday, we lose. I have tried to avoid it and have for the most part since that day in October 1988 when we lost to bama. It seems to only apply to working at my regular job, not as much doing work on my own.

It's really my fault the Vols lost because they always lose when I watch them on the TV. When I don't watch them, they win. So , I'm taking my clue and not watching against Florida, thank me later

Great to hear you won't watch!! Thank you for helping our vols!

I ate a bunch of pulled pork pregame for the exact reason of we were going to beat the brakes off of Arkansas. I also spoke of eating gator pregame this week. Upon further review I will not indulge in gator this week, and I would like to apologize for my involvement.
