Vols Fan 3 - Bama Game Thoughts

Saban denotes Bama's win streak against UT. Says
one fan, "It's only classless when Tuberville does it."

Let's see how my Pregame Questions were answered in this one.

1. Can Tennessee's defense stop...anything? Apparently not. SJPW looks great when he isn't pressured, and has all the time in the world to make a decision.
   
2. Will Ainge be able to complete a long pass without it being called back because of a bogus call? Yes, but Bama did manage to get two bogus calls. The first one should have been an interception. In fact, the flag was thrown after the ball fell into UT's hands. The next play, Keith Brown pushes off a DB (no call) to catch a touchdown pass. The second one should have resulted in a fourth down. No, they called defensive holding on UT, and Bama got the first down. This resulted in a 20 yard field goal attempt instead of a 40 yard attempt.
   
3. Will Tennessee allow Javier Arenas to have big returns? Javier Arenas returned a kickoff for 62 yards. So no.

Bottom line, Bama tore UT a new one. However, Sylvester Croom is definitely on to something. Officials can definitely give a team unfair advantages. But Bryant Denny Restaurant gives a new meaning to "home field advantage." Whether it's turning sprinklers on to stop their opponent's drive, or making the play clock nonfunctional during their opponent's drive, they're going to have a home field advantage like no other.

After this loss, I think Fulmer's "hot terlet" just got a little hotter. I hate it for the guy because he's done so much for UT. Aside from five years spent at Wichita State and one year at Vandy, Fulmer has been involved with the UT football program since 1969. Results are everything, though. I'm sure he will be allowed to resign sooner than later.

This concludes my week as a Vols fan.

Vols Fan 2 - Bama Pregame

It's almost noon and I haven't started watching the game yet. I'll start it after I post this. As a Vol fan this week, I'm going to ask some pregame questions for their game.

1. Can Tennessee's defense stop...anything?
   
2. Will Ainge be able to complete a long pass without it being called back because of a bogus call?
   
3. Will Tennessee allow Javier Arenas to have big returns?

I think those are fair questions. Number two is definitely a legitimate question. Bama's opponents have had long passes called back in at least half of their games. Last week's just took the cake.

Vols Fan - One Week Only

"I'll get you my fatty. . .and your little hound too!"

I have an unspoken pact with one of my best friends where I become a Tennessee fan one week out of the year, possibly two. I'm talking about the third week in October and if the Vols and Tide win their division, the SEC Championship game. Of course, this doesn't involve me being "just happy" if Bama loses. I have to become an actual Tennessee fan. With that, my attitude has to change for the worse. I have to trash talk and all of that fun stuff. So yeah, go Vols!!!

Everyone knows that the Philsbury Doughboy owns the crapstain. After all, he's amassed an 11-3* record against the turd. He also went 2-1 against the Buhr while playing offensive guard for the Vols. However, he's only 1-2 against the Wicked Witch of the SEC West.

A bammer would say that Fulmer's losing record to the Wicked Witch gives them an advantage, but to the trained eye of a Tennessee fan, they're nothing but a redneck idiot. That lying SOB has never played the Southern Sumo under these conditions.

Saban at Bama is no match for Fulmer.

That's right. Fulmer will extend his total domination over the turd Saturday morning, and the cups will come flying to the field at Bryant Denny Restaurant.

*Was 10-3-1, but the crimson cheat forfeited 1993 giving UT the win.
