My girlfriend and I were sitting next to some random guy for that game. After Trey Burton's 80 yard touchdown, he shook my hand and said to enjoy the rest of the game, but that he had seen this before and it didn't end well.
I thought he was crazy, but he turned out to be 100% correct.
That was a long, long drive back to Nashville afterwards.
