This Tennessee is entirely forgettable to me.

I'm the opposite, this is probably the most memorable Tennessee team to me ever, including their 1998 title team.

The Florida-Tennessee game made absolutely zero sense. Florida allowed under 100 yds rushing per game, and UT rips off 250. We were so much better than them.
It ALMOST makes it worth it that they pooped the bed in Atlanta to an even worse LSU team. Florida smoked them 44-15 in Tiger Stadium - the game I got my orange afro wig stolen off my head for mouthing off at their ineptitude (startling, I know).
Hook 'em Horns!

2001, starting with that Nebraska-Colorado game was everything college football was about.

So it was a wig?
All this damn time I was thinking you had an orange afro. You messed up my day.
Texas.

UGA did end up ranked (barely) at end of the year at 8-4. They were unranked when they beat Tennessee with a special type of boot.

I do remember that. Thank you Larry Munson.

Yeah, a big orange wig. Some blue facepaint with a U on one cheek and an F on the other. Front row tickets, up on the jumbo tron all the time. Those were the days.

I feel like any response will cause vomiting and a permanent ban....

2008 Texas was a much better team than the 2009 Longhorn squad that faced off against Alabama for the national championship.
If not for a weird night out on the High Plains of Texas...

There's no pictures of me because it was pre-smart phones and personally 2 computers and 2 phones ago.
