In a twisted way I sort of hope the new coach hangs the name of every other team in the SEC somewhere and tells the team they can take each name down when we beat them, because thats where we sit right now: with a loss to every single team in the SEC the last time we played them. I mean weve swapped licks with a team or two since the last time we even played Mississippi State, but the next coach gets to come in 0-for-everyone. There really isnt anywhere to go but up.
Incidentally, on December 5, 1998, we had a win streak against everyone in the SEC. Obviously we ran the table in 98 but wins against Ole Miss in 97 and LSU in 93 meant Fulmers Vols owned wins against everyone at the same time, and it hasnt happened since. There really isnt anywhere to go from there but down though... ask Bama tonight.
