^^^ Love that Dooley quote, good to see coaches with perspective. Sort of taking the don't poke the sleaping bear with a stick approach... it could work... maybe... if they're really luck... perhaps... nahhh!!!!
Let me be the first to say, 'nothing sucks like a big orange'.
For us Bama fans that pulled for the team pre-12-team SEC ie east/west alignment Tenn. will always be the biggest rival. If not for the added importance of division play, UT would still be the biggest rival, now however logic dictates the Auburn game is more important.
Also though one might not want to forget that UT was deeply involved in past troubles, VERY DEEPLY! It's worth noting the facts are that it was a few people within the program, not the whole fanbase etc. Yes I know Adams and those that saw things his way were numberous, but the average UT fan respects the heck out of Bama 364 days a year and vice versa.
This is my fav. college football rivalry, along with Army-Navy. HATE losing to those jolly pumpkins, and I'll eat my flip flop if we were to lose to them this year!
ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!
