[Escape Goat]

Great thread. Good numbers

 

[roddo518]

We want what they have...5 wins. I think we shall take it by any means possible. I've read the players quotes in most of the articles leading to this game. I truly believe our boys are looking at this like their super bowl. I think most of them can't wait to show out. Imo they will. Go VOLS!

 

[Burger]

I'm too excited. We will run all over them.

 

[Grand Vol]

Snakebit as we've been i can't help being nervous about this one. I'll feel a lot better after it's safely in the win column.

I'm picturing you drifting off with empty Krystal sack in your lap and a half empty warm beer next to you.

You sir, would be correct. Except for the Krystal. It was Waffle House to go. I should be up just in time to start over and cheer on the Vols.

I'm starting to understand the people who used to tell me that youth is wasted in the young. Now I must go to waffle house with the other old folks and wait in line for a seat.
