I always thought we adopted Rocky Top because it was so country it might keep the Carpet Baggers from moving  south to go to UT.
Guess I was wrong...:57:

I reckon our pulses will return when the team’s does. 

4th time is a charm, I hope. 
Really.

Enthusiasm can quickly return.  I hope it does.  I miss it.

I look at my new neighbors up the road.  Also clad in orange.  And I’m covetous.

But I could as soon change my sexual preference as change my allegiance to UT, to root for another program (though if I COULD, Clemson would be an easy one to change to).

The Vols will always have my allegiance (unless they do something irredeemably woke).  But they have to EARN back my enthusiasm.

The thing I’m most enthusiastic about right now is not having to  watch JG another season… ( ^ ;

How did Rocky Top become the school song when Tennessee Stud was right there?
It's not. The official University of Tennessee fight song is "Down the Field".

For those in the Memphis area that want to listen to the game on the radio it's being broadcast tonight on AM 680 and 92.9 FM. I'm going to miss listening to Tim Priest's color commentary.

Chimneys are not Rocky Top

It would be nice to see Milton have a good game, mostly to rub it in the Michigan fans

It’s nice to see team come out hyped for a change as well. That was definitely something missing under Pruitt.  Always flat.  

The team feeling good will help the fans to feel good.  

Seemingly, well coached so far ….

14 - 6 at halftime, over arguably one of the worst teams in Division 1.

Tried.  Can't hang with that.  Fonts too small.  And it's like tweeting (never sent a tweet.  Lord willing -- never will).  ( ^ ;
Fun first half.  Crappy second.  Oh well...
Milton's kind of fun to watch.  But it's evident he doesn't have the head game...
