BAMA biggest game to 40 and up!

I am 29 and while I hate Florida...I REALLY HATE those bastards in crimson.

As far as I am concerned, the 3rd Saturday in October will always be the biggest game on the schedule every season no matter which team is "up or down" that year.

GO VOLS, BEAT bama!

The biggest game for me nowadays is whomever our next opponent is but always get excited about 3rd wkend in Oct.

The late 60's when Bama\Vols were both top 10 on game day, Tenn walking horse, crisp Fall day in Neyland and John Ward proclaiming "Give Him Six" will always be engrained in my feeble brain.

Do NOT get me started about how I LOVE to hate the Florida Gators....even got the chills typing that !

I hate Florida the most but I recognize that Alabama is a bigger win. If I could choose one win, Alabama would be it. It's just in our DNA to hate bama!

Florida is a nothing game. The ONLY game that matters is BAMA. If you don't beat BAMA the season is a failure even if you win the SEC.

UT v. Bama is by far our biggest game/rival. Other Eastern rivals are big games (no doubt), but lack the long-standing history and tradition that the "third Saturday in October" brings.
Make no mistake, this is a huge game to fans in the know for both sides ( regardless of team records & standings ).

This is my thought exactly. Bama is the #1 rival to me due to all the history. Florida & Georgia are #2 and #3 due to our games against them determining the SEC East in most years prior to our fall.

I'm 20, currently go to UT and grew up my entire life in Alabama. I really hate Florida, but no other team/fanbase can piss me off as much as Bama. When I was a lot younger and we were beating them and they SUCKED, their fans consistently thought they would win the national title every year when DJ Hall and Brodie Croyle were their team. Saban is the biggest a$$hole in sports. I get evil vibes from him. They have Lame Kitten. They ride around with just hounds-tooth hats on their cars, the number 15, and/or always have flags flying year-round. Way too cocky. It's so annoying living there. No way Florida fans can be worse to be around 365 days a year. Hope we beat the snot out of them.

53...I said it before and I'll say it again; I don't like roll tide, high tide, tide soap, red elephants, the color crimson, any state that begins and ends with the letter A and a labam in between them. Did I miss anything?

Oh yeah, if we go 1-11 and that 1 represents A labam A, then it's a good year, scooter.

I'm 31. Alabama is the most hated for me and always will be. There is to many Bama fans in southern middle Tennessee that gets on my nerves thinking their sh*t don't stink.

I'm over 40! I lived in Central Florida for a lot of years. Beating UF is a big deal, but in reality there is only one game on the UT schedule taht I desperately want to win each season. Beating UF is rare and very special when UT can get a win. But, there's nothing like getting a win over Bama.

It is time to put up the annual posting of the "Why I don't like Bama"
article. It is an awesome read, however, I do not remember who usually posts it.

GBO!!!

I literally want to throw up when their band plays that stupid fight song. The hound tooth is ignorant too.

I'm 36 and it's BAMA for me, followed very closely by Florida. When I started following football, we had just beaten them for the 4th year in a row, but then went over a skid against them. It just so happens that a few years later, the rivalry with Florida took off, as well. So the hate is there for both of them, almost equally. Almost, because I still loathe the Crimson Tide more than anything.

I think it's stupid we keep the rivalry and play them every year. We need out of that IMO. I don't care how it looks.

I think stopping the series is foolish. The best thing to do is rebuild the program to the level to compete with Alabama every year....then if you want to quit it, fine. But to run while you're getting your ass beat just means you'll run again later when someone else is...JMO

If we only won these 4 games every year I would be fine.

I'm 31. It's Bama for me. My fondest memory is the year we destroyed Bama 41-14 or something like that. The opening drive where Manning hit Joey Kent in the middle for a long TD. 3rd Saturday in October will be nationally relevant again very soon and I've been patiently waiting.

I agree 100%. About to get relevant again. We will play them close this year and beat them in Knoxville next year. Book it!
