2001 Georgia. Never gone from ecstasy to agony so quickly. I felt like I wanted to puke after watching the mustang package blow up in our faces. I didn't really do anything crazy, just literally felt like throwing up.

Awful. I was sitting in the corner of the endzone right where it happened. Quite possibly the worst call I've ever seen.

Luckily I had on my running shoes and suitable running apparel but still, I'm surprised I didn't pull a muscle or something because I didn't do any kind of warmup. When I got back I was still so jacked up I went upstairs and started lifting weights and got on the exercise bike. After an hour of all that I still was jacked up so I immediately went to the Cubs' messageboard and proceded to call the Cubs every name in the book. My wife said the next morning "Don't worry, they can win tonight" and I just looked at her and said "It's the Cubs....no they won't".
I feel your pain brother....I no longer allow myself to have "Cubbie Meltdowns" I reached the quota long ago and now subscribe to the philosophy of lowered expectations. Now the Vols....that's a whole different story.

The 1989 loss to Bama. We had Cobb and Webb except Cobb was suspended prior to the Bama game. I dont know if many of you remember this but Bama had a running back named Maury Wills. We put Wills out of the game early in the first quarter. Then they put in a JUCO running back named Siran Stacy who ran for 200+ yard on a good UT defense. We lost 47-30. I was so mad i went outside and screamed. My wife thought i was crazy. I yelled at the TV the whole game why cant they tackle the ***********.

My worst "flip out" moment after a loss was last weekend. I literally almost flipped when I lost my balance walking down a muddy slope after the game.

After five trips to Knoxville to watch the Carolina vs. Tennessee, last weekend was the toughest, between the weather, getting humiliated, and then falling down on the way back to the car.

Hopefully we can make it more than 5 offensive plays today without turning the ball over!

I'm surprised no one has said the 1990 Auburn tie. That one was a heartbreaker too.

Mine was the 2001 SEC championship game against LSU. We fumbled away our chance, and a shot at the national title, late in the game. I threw the ottoman threw the living room wall. I then proceeded out the front door and stripped out of my lucky UT outfit. I lit the pile of clothes on fire and watched them burn in my underwear as the neighbors drove by. Needless to say, I wasn't invited to the next neighborhood BBQ.
I was 9 when we lost to Memphis in 96 and I cried.
