Trying not to

[FLSTF-VOL]

get sucked in. I know, this team feels very different than the train wrecks of the past, but I just simply can't let myself get all hyped up. I want to, but every time I do, every time I get sucked in, I get crushed. I know it's been one hell of a season to this point and way above and beyond anything that any of us expected, and I'll still feel crushed if we lose tomorrow. I say it every year, that I'm not gonna fall into that trap, and then I go and do it, every freaking time. So please football gods smile down on our Vols and let them kick the holey hell out of Georgia.

I’m with you! Nothing would please me more then to kick the living S..T out of those freaks from the south!

Dude, get on the train… for all the reasons you mentioned.

 

[DaddyChad]

“Sucked in”? What the F are ppl even talking about anymore? Win or lose this has been a great season. Even if we lose we have a good shot of being in the playoffs. Peach bowl is basically the floor for this team currently. It’s okay to be happy.

Oh btw we’re going to stomp Georgia’s ass. So put your fears to rest.

 

[TNHux]

Everything changes after tomorrow

 

[VOL89grad]

for those doubters, recommend “surrender” to this remarkable ride and enjoy… GBO, beat the heck out of the bulldogs!

 

[TC 83]

Season has already blown my expectations through the roof. If we lose tomorrow I promise you’ll still be proud of this team. We are not going to lay down like previous years. We are going to the defending champs house and knocking on that door!!!! GBO

 

[cwbytruckers]

Even if we lose 11-1 season 2. Freaking successful season regardless. Beats the heck out of those 4-8 0-8 SEC seasons.

Lame thread. Should've just posted this in a pre-existing thread

We've only had one of those 8 loss seasons. Ever.


Thanks Butch.

I don’t understand why anyone would think Georgia will give us a tougher game than Alabama. The only difference between the two is that Alabama has already lost to us. After tomorrow they will be the same.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

A very lame thread. You must never be able to handle any loss if your not already SUCKED in to the season. I don’t even know what that means. This is the SEC we are competitive again, I have been around for the 80’s and 90’s, I know Tennessee’s proud history. I know that we aren’t going to win them all every year. But I do know Tennessee is back one again and we aren’t going anywhere anytime soon!!!! GBO! VFL!!!!

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

Enjoy the ride. Regardless of what happens tomorrow, we have so much to cheer for snd just think of the turnaround

 

[Zues1]

Stop setting yourself up for soft landing ( I just knew it couldn't happen)
Get onboard...it's a toss up game.
Not a " we just can't" game

 

[utvols74]

I'm still smarting due to the Purdue loss. So, with where UT is right now......... if feels like CFB heaven. I'm stoked no matter the outcome. Would I love to see UT stomp a size 15 shoesize mudhole in every GA player? You dang right I would, but.....I'm still happy and optimistic for this team/players no matter.

 

[Behr]

Must be hell living like that. I thought getting "sucked" in was what being a fan of football was a about.

Some of yall have too many self-imposed rules.

Carry on, I'll be over here trying to keep from chittin my britches.

 

[FLSTF-VOL]

Lame thread. Should've just posted this in a pre-existing thread

may be, but you could have simply ignored it. You're in total control of your keyboard. Better yet just go ahead and jump up your own rear.

 

[Vol_in_NC_1999]

My friend in 1998: "I'm so worried and uptight about the FL game, I can't stand it!" Me: "I'm just going to soak it all in and enjoy it!"

I feel exactly the same way about this game

Dude, you didn't have to reply. Lame or not. I've been watching UT football since the days of Doug Dickey so I think that trumps your 80's and 90's.

Thanks for that insight Behr, I forgot what an ass you can be at times. My bad, I had a sudden surge of stupidity thinking that I might be able to post a thought on here without getting slammed.

 

[DB1995]

Unless we get clapped 55-6 or something, I won’t be dissapointed after tomorrow, I said preseason this was an 8-9 win teams, already at 8, if we could have an 11-1 regular season I’m not gonna sit here and cry about that

 

[Jeff Clark]

Tennessee will leave Athens ranked #1

 

[volbound1700]

Yeah nothing to lose here. There are very few teams in the nation (if any at all) that could win in Athens.

Wasn't being an ass and wasn't slamming you, just being honest. I thought the self humiliation part would have cleared that up.

If a Butch led team can go there and win, this team can. It will be a great game.
