Just wanted to say I had an awesome time Saturday visiting with all the Vol fans. Everybody was very hospitable before the game, during, and after. Hope yall win out the rest of the season.
For Stumps and his famly, this was the first game we've seen live where we lost - we've been on a streak for about a decade. oh well. A few thoughts on seeing this game live:
- been said a lot, but I have never witnessed a coach give up on his team the way that Dooley did today. It was heartbreaking and infuriating at the same time. If I played for Dooley, I'd have no confidence in my abilities.
- Mizzou fans - stupid chant, but your team won so you do get to hang around. As much as I hated seeing the Tigers act like they took the game, the fact is that that TN gave them the win. You were polite for the most part
- TN fans continue to be very hospitalable. I heard a lot of our fans greeting Mizzou fans with things like "welcome to the league" , very nice.
- lastly - I look foward to the day when the big orange can defend it's home. sad game.
Man, those Mizzou fans. They were too loud for my taste. And this couple of Mizzou fans in front of me... I could not get them to sit down.
One bought us a round of drinks after the game, though. So I'll remain indifferent until we meet again.
Sorry you dont like our chant, I happen to like it. About you gave the game? Ok, I can see that, from your point of view, I happen to think we gave Florida their game, so ok. Still scratching my head as to the sending it to overtime thing. I came away with a much better opinion of Vols wearing Gold then I did wearing Red. but I will give it time. Whether you gave us it or we won it its still a W. Yall owned us 90 percent of the game, but oh well. It was a great experience. Look forward to yall coming to Columbia next year (I think?)
