Worst football trip in SEC

[RDU VOL#14]

And while we are at it: Hoover, AL sucks too! Why can't we have SEC deliberations in Nashville, Atlanta, Destin or at the very least Huntsville, AL?

The SEC Spring meetings are in Destin every year. Last year SEC Media days were in Atlanta. This year back to Hoover. Then possibly moving around some.

The double overtime loss to Texas A&M in College Station.

Vandy at least has Nashville to salvage a trip

True. Great things to do in Nashville, & VOLUNTEERS take over the vandie landfill stadium. On the down side, being around snotty vandie fans gnarls my colon.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

yes

God, that was like watching someone play NCAA Football on PlayStation. Not Monte Kiffin's finest moment.

It used to be Legion Field. Place is such a dump and not a good part of town. They literally had to shut off half the stadium because it is structurally unsound.

Also I can’t believe nobody has said Tuscaloser. It’s a dump too! Plus there’s half a million Bammers on gameday.

 

[Remy]

yes

I still puke every time somebody brings that up. Thanks for the loss of my McMuffin this morning.

 

[Dudleys87]

Starkville because its Starkville.

You must have not found the Vegas in Starkvegas

 

[savannahfan]

Nothing like reminiscing bad memories!!!

 

[tennesseecoyote]

Can’t say a SEC game, maybe the loss to Vandy a couple years ago... the trip to Charlotte last year to watch the WV beat down wasn’t a picnic.

UT played UF at Neyland that season

Okay, then Sept 99. I was there, too. The great Deion Grant picks off a pass in Gator territory in the final minutes and a game winning FG seems easily in reach. Until it wasn’t.

Which raises a point...just about every trip to watch the Vols over the past 10-15 years has sucked. I would hate to see our road record over that stretch.

I think our overall record is bad enough to know it’s terrible.

88 Bama home loss. 9-6. And someone thru a JD through our Bronco window.

Was it empty?

 

[amishvol]

Gainesville 2011. The fans were awful and the place is a dump.

 

[joevol33]

Was 2009 the year McCluster ran for like 600 yards on us?

First time I ever turned the game off and left, went hiking.

 

[Carolinavols]

Lexington is a cool town. Not the downtown part (downtowns are kind of all the same anyways) but the tracks, the horse park, etc are all really cool places.

Also they have a Turkey Creek’ish area that puts TC to shame.

Go have a nice dinner at Tony’s across from Rupp. Great food and atmosphere.

The double overtime loss to Texas A&M in College Station.

Thank you butch jones for not going for two at the end of regulation. Just like Oklahoma, should have been a win.

 

[Jaws]

Confirms my suspicion that UT fans en masse buy into fake stories about mistreatment at Gator games in Gainesville.

I’ve said that for years. Cue the “Florida students threw a cup of urine on Ms Fulmer” stories. And the 50,000 or so UT fans who all somehow “witnessed it.”

 

[VFL_JB]

But to many on here, Mullen should’ve won a natty there if he’s as good as advertised

Huh?

 

[BennesseeVols]

Yes this is true. Grocery stores just had it stacked in aisles not in a cooler. I do think though this law has changed in 2018. Anyone confirm?

Can confirm, they started selling cold beer around 06 or 07

 

[Jax_Vol]

Any game at Vandy is bad, the stadium has to be by far the worst.

The visitor's side of that dump is horrific.

 

[bamawriter]

Vandy has the worst stadium, but Nashville is the best town in the SEC. Can't really call it a bad trip.

MSU has the second worst stadium while Starkville is by far the worst town.

 

[OnlyGodForgives]

Legion Field to see TN lose to Auburn sometime circa 1980. Even as an adolescent I was depressed by the industrial grime of the immediate surroundings. Maybe it's nicer now, wouldn't know or care.

 

[KeyVol14]

As much history FL has, Gainesville is a sh*thole

 

[USCGVOL]

Was 2009 the year McCluster ran for like 600 yards on us?

I was there. Had a blast with my friends in the grove but didn’t enjoy the game much. Then had fun again afterwards at the library. Beautiful women everywhere. I would go back in a heartbeat.
