KState 16-10 Houston at half

Tornado delay

 

[Tin Man]

UGA showing that they can be beaten, even at home in Athens. The Vols have the players, coaches, and scheme to do it. Execution will determine what they achieve.

What was life like before tv?

For quite a few years, I was happy without a television. I went to games, concerts, plays, shows, clubs, ice rinks, restaurants, others’ lodgings, fields, mountains, towns, cities… When I watched the Vols, I did so from the student section in Neyland.

I actually didn’t have tv the first couple of years I was in Wyoming.

BTW, TTech scored. 17-13. IState with possession, moving into the red zone.

In Fall ‘75, we found a TV to watch SNL on Saturday nights. Sometimes, even when we had dates. Coeds were as intrigued as guy nerds.

Edited because I had a little too much to drink.

 

[Tin Man]

Once, we invaded Hess hall (we didn’t live there), commandeered the TV, and tuned in SNL. There were objections at first, and some male hormonal posturing, but soon enough, everyone was intrigued. One guy kept asking, “What the f*** is this?” Until, uniformly, everyone else yelled at him to shut up. Good times…

 

[Tin Man]

You went on dates with gay nerds?

We didn’t consider it a date, but my freshman year, I would go to the Strip with the openly gay guy from Reese Hall to drink beer and play pinball. He was an engineering student, so a gay nerd. He knew hitting on me was fruitless, and I didn’t care that he was gay. My mother was an actress in the ‘60s. I’d encountered gay folk since single digits. I had a gay male friend in high school, and a couple of bi girls were among my amorphous group of friends.

Damn

 

[Tin Man]

A Prehistoric Water Lizard turnover!

 

[NorCalVol67]

Did they go for it on 4th?

 

[Tin Man]

Oregon has pulled away from Michigan, 31-17

Listen up whippersnapper. We had to play dice and marbles on the corner

 

[82_VOL_83]

I ain't pulling for UGA but I damn sure ain't pulling for f'ing FL.

 

[Behr]

Did they go for it on 4th?

Bad snap on a fg attempt.

 

[Tin Man]

I daydream of Georgia turning the ball over to Tennessee 6+ times, INTs, strips, inexplicable fumbles, botched kick receptions - every way they can lose possession.

 

[NorCalVol67]

I went to a game in Athens once. I will not say the year because it was the start of a bad season.

 

[Behr]

None of the games today went the way I wanted them to, but as long as the last one does, errthanges aight.

I saw a very excellent free WSP show in Athens. I vaguely remember camping in a parking lot

 

[Orangeslice13]

Snapped the FG attempt 35 yards in the wrong direction
