Mangled Monkey Lays Mauled in the Mud

[Aerie Vol]

It's not just off our backs, it's dead. Here's why I know this is our year: 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or really even 1 year ago the following scenario replaces tonight's finale.

"Hurd keeps, (this is Kesling talking) right corner, dive, and it's Touchdown! Touchdown Tennessee! The side judge has signaled touchdown. Wait, there seems to have been a fumble on the play. Dobbs hit hard on the dive. There's a scrum. I think App has it, but it's no matter, as the ref has signaled touchdown, the ball must have broken the plane before the fumble."

We all know what happens next. Review. Oops, ball didn't cross the plane before it popped out (Pig?) and, yes, App recovered it. They then kick a 52 yd field goal and we replace Michigan as the laughing stock of the NCAA.

But not this year. Hurd curb-stomped the freakin monkey into the mud. Vols roll into Bristol, no primates in sight.

Oddly... I had the same thought when Dobbs fumbled into the end zone. We've had a whole lot of screwy mishaps like that in the past 8 years that went the other way.

I've read in every other thread about this game that we suk and this is unacceptable, the coaches suk etc. etc. etc.

But I recall a lot and I mean almost all of our games in 97-98 that went just like this game tonight but I don't hear anybody sayin anything about that NC being god awful way to win and unacceptable, and embarrassing etc.etc.etc.

Bottom line is WE WON....... GO VOLS🍊🍊🍊🍊

That team never came close to losing to a glorified DII team.

See there, that's the problem. Y'all are looking at the glass half empty when you need to be looking at it half full.

I swear I've never seen so much *****ing and moaning over a freaking WIN!!!!

This all day...in recent years we found ways to lose those games and people whined. Now we are a good team who finds a way to win when you don't play well and you guessed it, people still want to complain. Bottom line is this, point spreads are for betters in Vegas, experts said we would win and be 1-0 going to Bristol and that's exactly where we are. Bring on next Saturday so I can be screaming go Vols all night at Bristol Motor Speedways

Geez, I'll drink what your having. One team showed up for a butt kicking and it was us. Better strap in boys next week is no joke and if you play like this your best. Thank god we could out talent this team.
