I Am Amazed By The Kool-Aid

Even after the debacle on the Hill last Saturday there are still those that think we will "shock the world". Maybe we should rename Neyland and call it "The People's Temple." Seriously, guys we are headed into the most hostile environment in college football to play a game against a team that has won 2 national championships in 4 years. Did I mention that they have the best player in college football at the most important position? I was over at rivals and could not believe how many people still think we have a chance to win. Its almost embarrassing to be honest. Look, I love the Vols and I have witnessed some amazing upsets in my time, the 86 Sugar Bowl comes to mind. No one said we had a chance then, but that crowd was decidedly pro-vols and electric. We wont have that emotional lift this go around. I want us to win, but honestly, we dont have a chance. I want us to show some heart, to play hard to the end and never give up no matter what the score may be. If we can do that, then I think CLK will have done his job in his first visit to the swamp.

Excellent, realistic post. Except there will always be, no matter what game, that .0000000001% hope inside me to think the vols win. No matter what happens.
 
DRinkin the Kool-aid and boy is it tasting good. So what if I wake up on Sunday and the Vols lost. Aren't we suppost too? Like a hang over it hurts like hell but the night before sure was fun.

I keep coming to this question tho. What happens if we do make the miracle win? What will everyone say? Will hell freeze over? I sure would like to see what happens. haha. Pandamonium!

(sorry i can't spell and don't care if I misspelled anything)

You deserve an A+ and a gold star... :thumbsup:
 
Hey guys 3 questions :

Were the Giants supposed to beat the Patriots?

Were the Jets supposed to beat the Colts?

Was Rocky Balboa supposed to beat Clubber Lang?

A little faith folks, a little faith. It will take UT's very best effort, alot of breaks, and UF having a non-typical UF day. There is absolutely no pressure on Tennessee, as we are expected to be blown out. Win or lose on Saturday, Its great to be a Tennessee Vol. REMEMBER : THEY MUST PLAY THE GAME.

GO BIG ORANGE:clapping:

The Giants and Jets were still good teams, evident by the fact they made the Super Bowl. So not exactly apples to apples here.

And yearh Rocky won....after a butt kicking and his manager dying.
 
Rocky Balboa---lmao----anything and everything is possible-------------in the movies---rotf. :eek:hmy:


I predict Vols will play valiantly---------
I cannot predict a win----based on each teams' talent and performance to date.

I believe in this...if the Vols can stick around and not let the Gators get more than a 7 point lead into the 4th quarter we can pull the upset. Here's why, Urban and the boys will get frustrated. They will get frustrated because all week they have heard about Lane Kiffin and how he disrepected them. They will be frustrated because by the 4th quarter, they should be killing us and it should not be a game at that point.

I predict that if we are within 7 points in the 4th quarter, they will make mistakes ( a stupid trick play or a defensive breakdown trying for the big sack or int.) trying to blow the game wide open. Of course this is all dependent on the premise that we are within 7 points at the beginning of the 4th quarter. This is how I feel and I'm sticking to it.
 
rexvol,
I have no idea who you are and I dont care how many posts you have. You call yourself a fan? You piss me off. Disappointment is part of the game. If it wasnt the game wouldnt be as exciting as it is.
So get over yourself and this "We have no chance and should look to the next week" attitude. You are bringing me down when I want to get pumped up.That goes for everyone.
Truly Yours,
VOL_in_ga

You can have the exciting disappointments-----
I'll take the boring winning part---whenever it starts.
 
Listen, I spent seasons expecting to lose certain games. Without fail, those seasons were not fun for me, even when we were good.

I decided that preseason, I'd be realistic about expectations, then, each week I'd cheer and talk like we'd win THAT game. Why? Because it's the fun way to do things. If you don't believe, then what's the point?
 
rexvol you make me sick while pretending to be a vol you are a bennie hinn want to be. You have no faith while claming to be a man of faith. Preach your bs brother. The man said all things are possible to those that believe. You give us no chance. Drinking the cool aid is good to my soul. I believe in clk and our program. You are orange on the outside but your Judice on the inside. Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen. You make me sick.

1st post :) Go Vols!

i'd like to think that we're gonna pull off the upset of the year this saturday, and we just might. But it's a big maybe with too many IF situations. Let's just hope Kiffin doesnt sit there clapping everytime Florida scores, and that if #8 decides to throw the ball, it goes to the right teammate.
