After getting hammered in the 2008 game 29-9, our beloved Vols were a 14.5 dog to bama in 2009. We had a chance to win the game with a last minute fieldgoal that was eventually blocked and lost by 2pts (12-10).

This was the same year they went on to win the national championship.

If you compare rosters then and now, we definetly have a better chance at winning now than we did then.

It shows that anything can happen.

GO VOLS!!!! :rock:

If I remember I think there was a controversial no call on our field goal attempt that was blocked, but cannot remember details. It was home poking indeed in Bama

An interesting stat is that since Dobb's Freshman year, when he's been in the game, we've outscored Bama 30-29.

It was onlycontroversial to UT fans. Cody took his helmet off and everyone said "Game cant end on a defensive penalty" but IIRC the game was already over so it didn't matter.

That offensive staff was light years ahead of this one. But I hope you're right.

You're right, I was at that game. My buddy ripped his pants when UT recovered that onside kick

Hard to believe that game was 6 years ago. Our funk was just getting started.

at the time, i remember feeling very good about where we were going.

we competed at the swamp. beat GA, hung tough w/Bama on a hearbreaker.

i remember very clearly thinking 2010 was going to be awesome.

then it wasn't.:banghead2::cray::censored::matrix:
