So what's worse:

This stuff with LSU

Or

Spurrier's crying that only same-division games should count towards the conference championship?

that's how i took it

Tennessee plays both Alabama and Florida every year.

Joe Alleva is a wuss for not wanting to play the tough teams.

That's exactly how it was said, and intended to be taken. Be offended if you want Vols fans, but this is the reality and perception of our program right now. Drink it in...

Does LSUseless REALLY want to play The UT every year? We won't be down forever and they sure as hell won't be where they are forever.

Yeah, I don't agree with LSU complaining, I just think the intent of the statement is clear. College football is cyclical, and I'm still hoping that we are trending up. I ain't skeered.

Pretty much.

He's opening up that "we hate having a cross rival and it's stupid, we should just have a full rotation" which they (& some of their fans) seem to feel the past few years

Words from a program with no tradition and a dumbass for a coach.

call me a gator homer all you want, but he wants a full rotation because he believes it is unfair that lsu has drawn florida.
