Bunch of [itch bay]es in this thread. Bring me your overrated slow-ass Big Ten schools. Butch had Vic Wharton throwing TDs on these trash teams.
imagine turning back the clock 25 years and beating a top 10 Penn State in a bowl, avenging 1993 Tennessee.

It was the day I lost complete and unquestioning confidence in my dad. He assured me until the beginning of the fourth quarter that Heath Shuler didn’t go down there to lose.
After a number of losses I finally learned the difference in pulling for a team and crossing the line by identifying my self image with a team. Gut wrenching losses you bear with the team as if you played isn’t healthy. After I realized Tennessee can lose and the sun still comes up I was happier.
I agree. I got a little ungrounded with the hoops team last season though. But I was mostly joking. I mean I do remember being surprised and disappointed my dad was wrong but it wasn’t earth shattering. (I mean at least not in a 1996 loss to Florida kind of way. Ha)
