This is the game that my grandfather cared the most about, my dad cares the most about, I care the most about, and now my son cares the most about. This has been the biggest sporting event of the year in my family for 75 years. If you don't care about keeping the Alabama game because tradition is bunk, then you might as well have some focus groups pick us some new school colors and a new mascot to help recruiting. That game is what college football is all about.
I'm very glad that we'll keep playing. While I don't consider yall worthy to be on the same field as us, I do think you are more worthy than any other team in the SEC. That's why this is the only rival board that I'm a member of.
SEC has voted in the 6-1-1 format, keeping one yearly cross division rivalry game intact.
It will stink to not go to Auburn or LSU or have them come to Neyland once every 12 years but it is a sacrifice I am willing to make to keep Bama on our schedule.
Soon we will be back to kicking their Crimson asses!:rock:
I forgot about your "Glory Years" in the late 9O's. Ours started 90 + years ago and and is only getting stronger.
Don't think hell has this beautiful white sand and blue water. Heck if I get tired of the beach I can go see some mountains and waterfalls, don't even have to leave the state.
Yes thank god alabama has that little bit of coastline. Its nice. Also the area North of the Tennessee River is pretty.
As for everything in between.......i cant think of anything with redeeming qualities. Just rundown houses.
