Thanks, 99 - I for one will be pulling for you the rest of the season because that's how the system works now. It's laudable that you'd post on here after that loss. Not sure I'd be able to do that. Kudos.

One of the things that concerned me before the game was that while I thought the Tennessee defense could be had, they got stronger as the game went along in each game. Today was no different. I know that the offense will get most of the credit for the win, but IMO, the defense gave the offense an opportunity to get it done. And the offense came through

Tennessee did what they needed to do to break the streak. Bad stuff happens. It’s the way it is. Today, they said “screw it”, we’re going to win anyway.

Someone mentioned what Florida did against North Texas defensively and I said that gameplans are different for every opponent. I indicated that I don’t know why you would blitz Tennessee. After this game, I still don’t know why you would blitz Tennessee. My greatest fears were realized. Florida felt the need to leave open the opportunity for big plays. Tennessee made them pay. The great irony is that Florida lived off of the big play in the 1st half. Once there was no big play, there was no offense.

The best news, for you all, isn’t merely that Tennessee won. It’s how they game played out. They won despite the fact that everything that could go wrong did and they didn’t let it phase them.

Enjoy. Be safe. Try not to wear out the DVR.

Class act. Fact is I've lived in Jacksonville for 7 years now and though I've met some good people, non are as classy as you. Don't ever lose that. Until next year.......Go Vols

Well 99, I must admit that you have consistently shown how one can support their team while being classy about it. You've got a great eye for football and most of the time your posts are spot on---whether it be about your team or ours.

Thanks for the congrats, and even though I really do dislike your team, I hope they (along with the rest of the SEC) make a good showing throughout the rest of the season. I'm first a fan of the Vols, and I'm secondly a fan of the SEC. I want the SEC to continue to be a force of domination in college football.

Go VOLS, this one's been a long time coming.

99, you, HG, and LG have all had the guts and class to come back post-game. Props to you all. Now, y'all need to go find Big Boi and drag his trash talking tail in here, as he's nowhere to be found. GBO

EDIT: and I see Al is here too. Cheers Al.

I appreciate 99's post. However it changes nothing for me regarding my hatred of all things UF football, a pox on their team and fans. My best wish for 99 only due to his classy post is get inoculated.

99, I have read your posts for awhile, first on the News Sentinel site and now on VN. You have excellent insight and you are a stand-up individual who tells it like it is. You have taken Saturday's Vols win with class and dignity. Peace to you and your family, I look forward to reading your posts in the future.
