I can say nothing nice about the opponent Tennessee (the state is a different matter altogether).
Tennessee's head football coach helped take 15 years of my fandom away from ever having anything resembling a fair shake.
I cannot and WILL NOT forgive that act of treachery. It saddens me because for those of you not old enough to remember - this was the most exemplary rivalry maybe in ANY sport at any level. It was what the Iron Bowl SHOULD be, two brothers fighting it out in the trenches, the loser raising the winner's hand, and having a beer afterwards and sharing war stories. That's what this was.
It's gone and never coming back thanks to Phat Phil and Darth Kramer.
I can say something nicer about Auburn than I can the Vols if that tells ya anything. (For example, Auburn pays their players well).
