| I wish I could say that I am surprised by the Vols performance the first half of the game. I have never seen a team that likes to give away ball games the way Phil & his staff do. The commentators were talking about the "air of negativity" you could feel before the game. It is past time to bring in a new head coach. Sometimes the game just runs off & leaves you, much like it did w/ Johnny Majors. They look terribly undisciplined & flat, like they did against UCLA. We have UGA, Bama, UK, & even Vandy to play yet...... each have great teams. The tone of each team is set by the coaching staff. We saw a few years ago where Randy Sanders was made the fall guy for a dissmal start. He left & went to UK & has contributed GREATLY to their successes! I will always be a vol fan but I have become aloof to the Fulmer era. I can't wait until basketball season now! Disgruntled fan, Chippervol |

| Well, I have been disgusted w/ Fulmer for about 4 years now. I was concerned when he had the head phones on during the offensive processions. I think he is pretty much clueless as a head coach. He is the main reason why many national sports authorities do not respect the volunteers as a whole. Coaching can make you or break you. If I had to choose between Nick Saban or Phil this would not be a hard decsion at all. I am tired of sucking hind tit to the Gators, Bama, etc. Phil has done just enough to keep his job. He made a big contribution 3 years ago to the university to secure his job after letting Randy Sanders be his fall guy. When does basketball season start? chippervol |

| Re: FLA at TEN I was shocked to see that Vols fans have "compuders" and know how use them too. Please stop all the hate towards coach Phil, he is the 2nd best coach in the SEC and deserves a 10 years contract extension. If you Vols fans are nice maybe Santa will bring you one of these: Florida Gators vs. Tennessee Volunteers White Bragging Rights Score T-shirt Two University of Tennessee fans were walking down the street when they came upon a dog lying on the sidewalk licking and cleaning his groin like dogs do. The first Tennessee fan says to the second, "Boy, I wish I could do that." The second Tennessee fan replies, "Yeah, me too. But I wouldn't try it." The first Tennessee fan asks, "Why not?" The second Tennessee fan replies, "Because I'm afraid the dog might bite me." |

We have 7 losses in our entire conference compared to the whopping 11 you guys have. Yes I understand that you guys have played more conference games, but youre blowing each other out. I mean LSU could barely handle Auburn and dont even get me started on Alabama. Lets see how Texas does against Ark. this weekend after they "fix things" I guarentee you that they whoop up on them so bad you guys wont want to be associated with Ark. Anyways, thats my rant. I know you guys had 5 teams in the top 10 which is a first in history or whatever...but I think your teams are a little overrated...not a lot, but a little. I mean Tenn got creamed by UCLA which got shut out by BYU...

| Re: FLA at TEN Alright fair enough, we will see who is right by the end of next weekend. UT is not overrated...they arent even talked about. Georgia, LSU, Auburn, Alabama are always in the media...personally I think they are biased... Vandy had a major problem with Rice...It wasnt until the second half that they woke up...they were tied at half time remember? Texas just got done with them 52-10 I believe. Oh ya, I almost forgot...they played at Vandy the day after Hurricane Ike hit Houston and 7 players' became homeless, their minds were in other places...but youre right...the SEC is not overrated. Dont even get me started on Strength of schedule. The only team in the SEC really to play anyone is Alabama and it was Clemson who is most definately overrated. They will probably win the ACC...but its the ACC. The only thing they are good for is basketball...and maybe Lacrosse. Only in the SEC will you find teams beating each other 3-2. Q : How many Gators does it take to tackle a Nebraska Cornhusker? A: Good question, no one knows. A fellow walks into a bar, orders a drink, and asks the bartender if he'd like to hear a good Florida joke. "Listen buddy," he growled. "See those two big guys on your left? They were both lineman on the Florida football team. And that huge fellow on your right was a world-class wrestler at Florida. That guy in the corner was Florida's all-time champion weight lifter. And i lettered in 3 sports at Florida. Now, are you absolutely positive you want to go ahead and tell your joke here?" "Nah, guess not," the man replied, "I wouldn't want to have to explain it 5 times." Hope your Gaytors fair well against Miss...it would be a shame to lose all that hype. |
