Well it happened. I had my first dream of the season. Granted, I dreamed UGA was curb stomping us 24-0 in the first half and their staff was laughing on the sideline.

Nonetheless, were getting close boys.

Curt Watson was as tough as they came. He played the entire 1971 season bothered with broken ribs.

How did it end?

I’m so glad I can finally say that the Vols play some football NEXT month.

Yippee.

I dreamed UGA was curb stomping us 24-0 in the first half and their staff was laughing on the sideline.

The perfect end to that dream is the Vols getting all the breaks in the second half, racking up 35 points, and holding Jawja scoreless. Fade out on the faces of the UGA coaching staff as time expires.

Love this pic. At the time, the joke around the SEC was that Bear knew it was time to retire when he started loses games to Majors

The Bear should have retired after Alabama lost to Texas in the January 1982 Cotton Bowl. In every game Alabama lost in 1982(Tennessee,LSU,Southern Miss and Auburn) Bear Bryant was outcoached badly.
