Agreed, sad state when we talk about bands but I noticed it too. I'm usually sitting above the opposing band but was sitting in lower North end zone for Bama game. Their stupid band seemed like it played non-stop. They played over the Pride just about every chance they got. This is not by...

I look at this blackout B.S. the same as I do any mention of us playing on ESPN Thursday nights. We're Tennessee. We don't need gimmicks like that. We're orange and white and damn proud that we don't share our special shade of orange with anyone else in the country. And we don't need to play...

Why is this a post? Because it was the best thing to happen Saturday night besides getting a W and the rain stopping. The crowd roared more for Ohio's band performance than for any of our TDs.

Agreed lots of orange there. Most of the big stadiums in the SEC have sent the larger portion of the 10,000+/- visitors way up high. UGA, Bama, South Carolina have done it. And we certainly have. Think how many fans used to be in the lower north end zone at Neyland. We used to give about...

It's about Rocky Top. http://www.thestate.com/gamecocks/story/211640.html This article is especially nice considering how much it really does irritate opposing fans. I was witness to it in Tuscaloosa last week before the game when Bama sent a "pep band" (of about 100!) to stand in front...

I like Buzz. He's a nice guy and is running a clean program. I continue to be baffled by his players. It's almost like they don't practice together or something.

Oh guys! You've missed the best part about all of this. He was quoted as saying "I'm going to the University of Penn State". A Rhodes Scholar in the making, I'm sure.

I think you guys left out something important about the whole Charles Woodson/Heisman thing. Woodson doesn't even have the trophy. Chris Fowler keeps it stuck up his own a--.

12th Man-- The student section at Neyland Stadium is D, E, F, G, DD, EE, and FF. The band sits in lower H. My two cents: The Pride of the Southland is one of the best bands you'll ever see on the field. However, in the stands they leave a little to be desired. The director treats them like...

I think he'll do better than Holtz. However, he won't be able to sit back and watch 5-Star recruits knock down his door like he did in Gainesville. Word on Spurrier is that he didn't like to recruit (the offseason if for golfing, after all). He could get away with minimal time at UF...

Aggie04 & 12thMan-- I usually pull for all of the SEC teams in out-of-conference play except for Georgia (I'm a UT alum from Georgia). The only time, and I mean only time, I pull for the Dawgs is if it somehow helps the Vols (SEC standings, BCS, bowl game hierarchy, etc.). Alabama is a...

West Virginia is the only school on the list that's even in the realm of possibility for this question. I don't want any potential member that fits into this category: The University of fill in your city name here The SEC is built on tradition (yes, even Vandy). Memphis, Louisville?

I expect a somewhat close game but Auburn wins in T-town.

[B]#1 Alabama -- tradition, border war, etc. It's love-hate for me. #2 UGA -- posers, hate 'em. Hated 'em as much during our long win streak as I did during their streak the last few years. #3 Auburn -- tradition here, too. They have great fans. This used to be THE early SEC...

Go to the link below and make sure to vote against Hairy Dawg (UGA). Smokey isn't a contestant this year but that's beside the point. Anyone but Hairy Dawg! http://r.espn.go.com/espn/contests/capitalone04/results
