Go back and look at the anxiety and excitement for the season. In May, June, & July people couldn't wait for the season to get here. I get it that there are a lot of younger people on here and they're anxious.
The bottom line is that the football season goes way too fast. Don't rush it. Look at the enthusiasm after the NC State game only to be deflated after the UF game.
My advice is, as next year approaches (new coach) keep it all in perspective. 24 hour sports news and chat boards aren't the best things in the world. Don't live and die by whatever some jerkoff writes or blogs. The game isn't played on the Internet or by the written word. Just enjoy it.
Go Vols 2013!
