To me this game has always been big...even when both programs had down years. Will this game ever be as meaningful as it was in years past?

I agree and love the Sewanee reference. This couldn't happen to a better bunch of fans.I hope not.
After what they tried to do to us, and dang near succeeded, I hope they flounder in quicksand for all eternity, and TSIO becomes a quaint historical footnote, kind of like when Sewanee was a national power.
I love this!!! To you younger Bama fans The Dave Clark Five was a Beatles want-to-be music group from the 1960’s[emoji3522]Bama = The Beatles
UT = The Dave Clark Five
Both had hits. Only one’s will last forever
When you have been around as long as I have, you will understand that history has a way of changing......It’ll take Bama moving down to UT’s level. Tennessee’s days as the second best program in the SEC are over. Justice has prevailed.
let's not jump the gun on LSU just yet. they have been recruiting at a high level these last few classes and have played Bama much tougher than the Vols in the last decade.The 3rd Saturday In October is a distant memory. Even LSU is becoming less of a big game now.
So does football. Teams like Nebraska and Tennessee used to be Top jobs that you could win a national championship at, but now they aren't better jobs than Arkansas and Missouri because of the lack of instate recruiting. For Tennessee to succeed they desperately need to recruit nationally, and not many coaches can bag a lot of top out of state talent, and sell them into coming to a landlocked state with a rich football history. Sure they can win one here and there, but here and there might as well be 10 to 15 years between here and there.When you have been around as long as I have, you will understand that history has a way of changing......
I'm no math wizard, but that looks like a 6 game lead.We only had a 4 game lead in the series when Saban took over. We led 44-38 at that point. Now, after reeling off 12 in a row, we lead 56-38..
Can't see the orange slime ever being relevant either if Pruit doesn't get them there. The only way 10rc become relevant without Pruitt would be to get up to their recruiting shenanigans when Fulmer was in charge. Personal knowledge during the Fulmer tenure of a TN recruit from the projects driving a brand new pick up worth around $50K back then.If Pruitt does not do it then I suspect never. People talking up the game will become like people talking up Nebraska. They are just not relevant anymore regardless of history.
