I don't give a damn about the whole state of Alabama I'm from Tennessee! GBO! Gym in the morning couch surfing watching ball when done there all day and night until I switch to Adult Swim at midnight.

After a day of dealing with attorneys and then health insurance underwriters who can all be punished by living in purgatory in place called Alabama, I came home and ate pizza, watched the end of the Mariners game, played Rook, then watch Louisville intercept Beck to win. Will be watching the game at a friends house with my son. GBO.

This is solid. Hat tip @Buddy’s Bandit

GENERAL ROBERT R. NEYLAND’S GREATEST PLOY

In 1928 a then young Neyland challenged national powerhouse Alabama (winner of the 1925 and 1926 Rose Bowl) to meet his unheralded Vols in Tuscaloosa. In the greatest (and perhaps first) opponent psych –out move ever , Neyland went to the Tide locker room minutes before the game and in full earshot of the Alabama players told coach Wallace Wade that the game would be a rout .He suggested that in order to hold down the score, that the last two quarters be shortened. Wade replied that Alabama did not plan on running up a big score , but agreed to shorten the last half if Alabama’s lead justified it
( just imagine the instant loss of mental edge by the Alabama players) .
Minutes later, Volunteer halfback Gene McEver returned the opening kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown. The Tide trailed at halftime, Tennessee never lost the lead and won the game 15-13. [ adapted from THROUGH THE YEARS WITH THE VOLUNTEERS by Tom Siler ]
That’s awesome lol !! Sounds like something Mike Leach might have done.

Was a long day, getting home and settling in with a little brown water. Tomorrow the Mrs. And I are going to our niece's engagement party and politely exiting stage left 30 minutes before KO!

Is that from a craft ice maker? I bought a LG that is supposed to make those ice cubes and it’s only worked about 3 times. There can’t be anything wrong with it.. I bought it in 2022. Just can’t find a decent troubleshooting guide.

It’s from our LG Studio that makes the craft ice. Have had it about 5 years. Works great. I will say that it does stop making on occasion. I found that turning the maker off for about 30-40 minutes and turning it back on resolved the issue.

I thought this had been posted by someone this week, but after a quick scroll down the board, I don't see it. I bumped it for your viewing pleasure. It still makes me laugh to this day, 25 years later.


Anyway, on to the night before thread...

So who is going to the game this weekend? Tailgating plans? Those not going, how are you watching -- at home, at a friends, sports bar?

What's on the menu? I want to hear about ALL the foods you have planned for this historical weekend.

Anyone catching a high school game tonight?

What other college games are you most looking forward to watching? LSU at Vandy? Oklahoma at South Carolina? Ole Miss at Georgia? USC at Notre Dame?

There are some pretty good games tonight as well, for a Friday anyway. I plan to watch them all. :)

Go Vols!!!
I went to my nephew's homecoming game tonight, he was named one of the team captains and scored his 5th TD of the season, he's a freshman WR.

Then i went to our new Dave's Hot Chicken that opened today ant stood in line for 45 minutes to order the reaper chicken.....i know it's hot and what to expect, i like spicy stuff.....it's very hot lol.

Tomorrow I'm gonna get some ribs from Dreamland to eat while watching the game. When I was little my parents and grandparents and aunt and uncle had Bama season tickets and my aunt and uncle always let me have their Tennessee tickets and we would always eat Dreamland before the game.

Oh and also, glad to see Miami lose.
