Game Week......finallly.

Wouldn't it be nice if they happened on the same play?

Hefney lays a crazy hit, popping out the ball, which Berry snags and takes to the house for 6......

I like it! :thumbsup:

Glad to see its almost here. With high anticipation,I wait for the opening of the T and the band striking up Rocky Top !! Getting the start up jitters out of the way, and playing some smash mouth UT football. The D takes the field first,stopping all promise of heisman hopeful D.J. giving the ball up on downs; UT promptly marches down field and we hear those famous words come over the radio "Touchdown Tennessee". It snowballs for the Bears the rest of the day when they realize they are living the same dream as last year and never wake up.Before the day is done two or three frosh make the news reels for feats beyond the realm of reason, Herbstreit wishes he had put some of them on his watch list,as they charish the moment with fellow players and coaches alike. To me is all going to be a big SURPRISE to all just what this team can do!! Can't wait...UT 37 Cal 20

Anybody remember what happened the last time the Vols opened the season outside the state of Tennessee?

Was that Syracuse and McNabb?

 

[General Jack]

Syracuse in '98 I believe.

Semi-new UT fan here ( :blush2: ).....but I really like the post and am SUPER excited about the season starting.

By the end of the year, I'm pretty sure my blood will run pure orange.

I hate the week of the first game. The game can't seem to get here fast enough. Not much sleep between now and Sat.

Yes, the wait has been awful.

Another thing I love is that not only does Tenn play, but I get to wake up this Sat. knowing that I get to watch football all day. That's something we haven't been able to do in a long time.

Sept. 1st:

Early goose season opens :rock: Go down some honkers

Then by 10 a.m. I'll be watching and waiting for football

remember, i have negavol tendencies, so don't tempt me.:thumbsup:

Meanwhile, back at the ranch.....

I don't like the term "NegaVol". That has never applied to me.

I prefer "NegaPhil". That has often applied to me.

Having said that, I'll line up behind Jake, since he said it first. It's football time...it's Tennessee...and it's time to put on your best game day wear and cheer for them Vols.

Here's hoping that the Vols give Cal the butt-thumping they so richly deserve, and that Phil Fulmer gives me a reason to doubt why I ever doubted him.

GO VOLS!!!
