    I remember him being sacked far more than he had all season, and it would have been much more if not for some short passes as he was about to go down.

    I was never able to understand how a team like the 2001 Vols was ever an 18 point underdog. I understand that Florida looked better throughout the year, but when is a 9-1 team ever a 3 touchdown underdog against another 9-1 team in the same division?

    A hated Grossman's punk ass after watching him dance on the T after that rainy disaster in 2002. Wanted to rip his throat out.

    We were lucky to beat UK not long before.

    Still, that kind of line seems crazy.

    LSU was a two-TD favorite over a top five Arkansas team this year. And that's with Arkansas kinda having their number. And they more than covered.

    Weren't they driving and Overstreet recovered a fumble with 2 minutes to go?

    I know we were down 17-0 and came back.

    That was the last year that we played Vandy last game of the season. I think we shut them out the week between UK and Florida.

    You are correct. First of a three year scoreless streak for the Dores.

    I forgot all about the '01 Kentucky game. The score was actually 21-0 Cats at one point. Big sense of relief after that one ended.

    Eddie Moore packed a punch. Underrated Vol.

    That game was awesome but it's depressing as hell that we have to go back over a decade to find one on that level.

    2006 was almost epic... Couldn't get the calls, couldn't quite get over the hump. Damn.

    One of my favorite nights of college involves sitting around a baby grand piano in the ADPi suite quoting Original Kings of Comedy.

    The bullshit "hand on the helmet" pussified subjective horseshit call on Mapu in the 06 UF game still angers me. It's the rule, not necessarily the call that pisses me off

    I'm still not convinced the call was right.

    But... there was the Brandon James TD called back for a mystery block in the back if I recall. Am I remembering that right?

    Incidental contact that had no impact whatsoever on the outcome of the play. Sucked. That INT would've been the nail in the coffin too.
