Great history, great tradition!

Man, I hate Tennessee. I just, just, I just hate'em!!

I'd like to send best wishes to the lady I took to Birmingham for the 1969 Tennessee game.  She forgot her ticket, and I apologize for all of those things I said that day.

"Wherever you are, Beth, I hope you learned to listen to men who ask, 'Do you have your ticket?'.  Cost me $45, plus who knows what else!

 :-*

$45 had to have been a nice piece of change in 1969.

HUGE.  I was on work study.

Roll Tide everyone. A few notes. Ivory is not dressed today. Lake to start at NG? C Jones starting at DB.

This is what I get for living in ACC country. They still have the GT-UVA game on CBS, and there is 10 minutes left.  :wall:

What we need today for the win:

1.  AJ needs a big day (no turnovers; 3 TD passes);
2.  Shut down UT's run;
3.  O-line stay healthy and win the push;
4.  DBs play well (couple of picks).

Anybody have an online link for Eli?  I don't think I can put up with Verne today.

Oh yeah, we need this at the end:

+10.  Thank you sir.

:toast4:

This will be the first time I have heard Eli all season.  #+

Coin toss won by Bama.  We want the ball.

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

I hate that song.  I hate that color.  I hate that dog.  I still don't like the fat man.

I hate Tennessee.

Preach it, brother!!  #+

Great runback!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice start, Christion!!!

Roll Tide! Hope all is going well with everyone!! Let's DO THIS Bama!!

Penalty already.   :wall:

Welcome back, Amari Cooper!

Roll Tide.   :wave:

TD Cooper

:jump:

COOOOOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

COOPER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Coop is back!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOT

Just like the 1973 game...

TOUCHDOWN COOPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He loves playing UT.

... and the stands empty.   :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

Defense got lucky on that possession.

Whew on the TE crossing.

Good return by Christion.   :popcorn2:

Well let's not waste any time making it 14-0 here, fellas.

I like the way you think, Mass-Murder guy!

 :lol:

 :lol:

Kelly back at center.

OL standing up well to the Tennessee rush.

Another penalty?

No, against the defense.    :lol:

Thought that holding on us.  #+

UT's DBs look lost against us.

Not sure that wasn't a TD....

I think he scored.

Well done, fellas.  Not much time wasted at all.

TD Yeldon! #+

This is what we needed, folks.  Terrie seems to have brought us luck!

 :-*

TOUCHDOWN YELDON!!!!  Is a beat down coming.

A&M won 56-24 (yes, they beat the spread).

This team got serious after the Colorado St game and haven't stopped.

16 points in 5 games and O is rolling in this one.

I'm disappointed. It actually took us 7 plays to score that time.  :lol2:

(http://www.totalprosports.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/23-tennessee-mascot-smokey-ix-napping.jpg)

I have my Romeo Y Julieta ready.  :-*

I finally got Eli perfectly synchronized with the TV just before the commercial.  Now it is out of whack again.

>:( >:(

You are correct, sir.

Maryland leads Clemson 7-3 (temporarily; Clemson about to score).

:lol:

Going to need to get some pressure on the QB today.

What's up with our DBs?  We got lucky on two plays on the first possession, now a big gain on another wide ope receiver.

Poor dog. He knows a beatdown is coming and they will take it out on him.


 :lol2:

Miscommunication on route for 4th down.  We'll take it.

Alabama's ball!

That's young Mr Jones.  He switched coverage on a cross; nobody else switched.
He'll hear about it.  Learning moment!

Probably Collins fault

Got shorted a yard on that spot.

Bad spot for Bell.  Was half yard ahead of that.

Maybe they moved it up...

Drake grabbing his hamstring.   :o

He's okay.  Just ran for a 1st.

Kenyon busting through!

Nice run by Drake.

Drake about to break something...

AJ is really looking sharp throwing the ball so far.

Amari grabbed his knee.....NOOOOOO.

Dammit, Coooper's knee hit.  Hurt!  :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

Cooper's knee bent laterally.  Not a hit by helmet (not a bruise, but a stretch of ligaments).  Hope he's okay.

OJ Howard in for the pass play.

Big Catch Kev!

TD NORWOOD!!

Norwood!!!  Wow!! #+

Herbie, your a little off this week.  :lol2:

TD Norwood.

Incredible statement by the announcers. Tennessee has not scored more than 13 points on Bama in a game since 2007.


 :o

Thank you Chech!  I'm working and these stupid people keep bothering me.  At least I work online where they can't HEAR me yelling at them to stop bothering me!!
RTR

Very nice, very nice!

Coop jogged around and is getting a brace on the knee.

Yeldon to the locker room.  Hit hard on last run.   :pray:

Roll Tide, errrrrrbody!  :-*

Crap.  He was finally healthy!

Well hello!   :wave: :wave:

I missed the sideline report...what was that?

Yeldon to lockers.

Is Dad letting you eat his chili and drink his beer today?

I noticed he took a shot to the knee a few plays ago.

Navy beat Pitt 24-21.

Welcome in, Bred!

Correct Verne. That's just the way we like it.

Yeah, that 1-yd gain; play before the Norwood TD.  Not good.  May be a "lower-leg injury".

I made the chili, I'll have you know.


But, uh, yeah on the beer  :D

What the heck was Big Al doing?

Pants on fire!!

My apologies, ma'am!   I'm sure it's better that way anyway.

Well, that is what is most important.  :lol2:

Nice job by the D this series.  #+

Why was Coach so mad?

Radio came back from commercial and ELI said, "Yes, that's good news."

Did they have a report on Yeldon or Cooper?

Spent a timeout due to confusion by our defense.

Eli just said Yeldon is back from lockers; looks like equipment, not injury.

Texas Tech/Oklahoma game delayed for 1 hour by weather in the area on Fox. Will start at 3:30p instead of 2:30 pm.


 :popcorn2:

Bama has scored on 19 of its last 21 possessions for 90 unanswered points.

I think it was taking the TO on the punt. Guys were all pointing around at something, so  :dunno:

Thanks Chech! :)
I couldn't figure it out

Cooper back in --- he gets a 1st.

Yep, wearing a brace.

Love Norwood. Still think he is our clutch receiver.

Norwood becoming AJs go to guy .... and just as I say that, Coop makes a catch.  :lol2:

What a run!  #+

Guy rode Christion out of bounds.   >:(

Bingo! He's our possession/3rd down receiver.


 :lol2:

Yep, I was looking for the flag.  >:(

Thanks CB :)

almost TOUCHDOWN AJ

28-0

 :-[

Actually, his knee was down.  Might come back!

Life is good. TJ and Coop are ok, AJ scores and Bama is kicking azz!!!!!
 :jump:

Yep. Think so.

Close, but I think AJ was down.

Now its 6!!

There it is.  :lol:

Bama has now scored on 20 of its last 22 possessions for 97 unanswered points.

SC should have gone with 98-0 this week.  It might actually happen.

On the replay looked like he had to run over CyKo for the score.

Wow, great minds.

:toast4:

SC, does that count? Can't get 98, but 97 is pretty good, right?  :dunno:

He did. Nailed him pretty good.

Alabama has allowed one TD in the last 61 opponent possessions.

We need Vinnie!

Cade Foster injured on the return.  Limping badly.   :wall:

Report on Cade Foster: lower right leg: "big cut or bad bruise"

62 possessions

:P

Interception!!!!!! #+ #+ #+

Did it look like to anyone else that the UT guy had a whole lot of Deion's facemask?

Did you see?  Nobody blocked the QB.  New penalty this year for hitting QB as we did last year.

Report: "Cade can play if needed.  Injured lower leg."

There's nothing more certain in football than a run up the middle on 2nd down after an incomplete pass on 1st down.

Eli said we didn't kick fg, apparently due to injury to Cade Foster.

Got to love The Drake!

Drake!

Really.  I'll change that when I'm HC.

Drake...Drake...Drake...

Drake stretching for goal, FUMBLED.   >:( >:( >:(

Well crap. Left in on the field here.  :wall:

He'll be in the solitary-confinement pond for a while now!

Probably going to see a lot of Dee Hart and Derrick Henry in this one now.

He's just giving the D a chance for a safety... :o

Two hands on the ball.  :wall: :wall: :wall:

Duke 3  Va Tech 0 at half.

Duke's a 2nd half team too!  True.

34-23 Gophers over Huskers. Bo Pelini in BIG trouble.
Texas T/Oklahoma early in 1st qtr 0-0.
USC 7 Utah 3  1st qtr

 :popcorn2:

A'shawn had the facemask!

Hubbard seems to have a shoulder injury.

A'shawn got a finger to the eye.

How many times have I told the Drake to SECURE THE FOOTBALL.  Now he has AJ doing it too.

>:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

WTH?  JFF-type pass for long completion.

Indeed.

Collins 88-yard pick-6.

:jump:

Roll Tide!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

LANDON!!!!! TOUCHDOWN ALABAMA!!!!

We were just luring them into a trap.  :lol: :lol:  Excellent hustle by Pagan blocking on the run back.

 :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump:

63 possessions

:P

Pagan crushed him.   #+

Landon Collins for the TD! #+ #+

Oregon lookout. Oh yea CNS won't run the score up just to show how purty we are though. RTR!

Cody Mandell kicked off.

104-0. Not bad! 8)

Knew CNS was going to bring up the fumble.  :lol2: :lol2:

Clemson 16  Maryland 7  half

In Tennessee's defense, they're making us look better than we're actually playing.

I want Oregon!
I want Oregon!
I want Oregon!
I want Oregon!

oops we want oregon. rofl, RTR!

Oregon, Auburn: "Correction.  We don't want Bama.... No, seriously.  Please don't make us play Bama! PLEASE! SPARE US!!"

Needed to get some work in today somehow, I guess.

FSU scored 42 with 3 minutes left in the 2nd.  Obviously we're not keeping up.

 :lol: :lol: :lol:, you getem HL. RTR!

I'd like to edit my 38-13 prediction.

Reports:

1. Both our fg kickers injured, but Cade can play if needed;
2. Cooper won't play 2nd half;
3. Stands are emptying (NOT GOOD);
4. I just lit up a cigar!

(http://havanajournal.com/images/uploads/big_cuban_cigar.jpg)
Actually, that's not me.  But I am smoking a Cuban.  :lol2:

Sounds like another week for good hard chewing out. rofl, RTR!

You're sure they are not Dominicans?

(http://mapsaboutnothing.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/dominican-republic.png?w=300&h=225)

The Dominicans always roll too tightly!

One of my best friends lit a cigar before the game ended in 2003.  My last Tennessee game as a student, and last chance to see Bama win a meaningful game at Bryant-Denny as a student.  I still haven't forgiven him.

Loved the Seinfeld episode about that!  :lol2:

They're from Cuba, via Guatemala, by way of Belize.

(http://www.cubancigarwebsite.com/images%5CCohiba_logo_small.jpg)

Had a Perdomo RTR this past weekend. Would love to try a Cuban!

Okay, Tennessee is going with the freshman QB.  Bless his heart!

 :pray: :pray: :pray:

Cade didn't kickoff especially well, unless that was a designed kick.

Was it Cade?  Prolly not.

Come on defense, hold them here!

Chinese?

Yep, it was him. I saw his number and Eli commented on it.

Well, there goes the shut out.  >:(

Worse, I've just realized my wife's computer is set for British English.  It auto-corrected defense to defines.  It also doesn't like color, realized, and offense.

No shutout.    >:( >:( >:(

Good job by Christion picking his way through the coverage.

Christion Jones is having a game!

Yeah, really good.

COOOOOOOOOPER

Oops, pushed off...

CRAP CALL!!!!!

That was....eh....picky.

Picky call on Coop.  >:(

Looked like Cooper was tapping the DB on the shoulder, "Hey, ball's coming."

Ridiculous PI call.   >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

First punt coming.

So much smoke here that I didn't see the long UT run.

Right up the middle?

(http://www.thefix.com/sites/default/files/styles/article/public/dog%20smoke.jpg?itok=57p5FMtA)

That was a nice nab there.

CJ lost containment.  Don't see that a whole lot.

Cyrus almost had that int.  ALMOST.

So, now we get to go 99 yards.  Nice punt.


Clemson leads 16-13.

Duke 13  VT 0

should be on about the 4 as the hit it first there.

But yes, 90+ yards and about 7 minutes would be nice.

Yeldon -  wow.

How many people have missed hearing Rocky Top? roflol

Nice screen.  Watching LSU??   :lol: :lol: :lol:

AJ drops to 4th round draft!

The Drake out of the dog house long enough for a hand off or two.

HOLY COW......KEVIN NORWOOD!!!

HOLY COW!!!! NORWOOD!!!!

NORWOOD!! WOW!!

Unbelievable catch by Norwood!!

TD FOR TJ!

99-YARD DRIVE!

(http://halestormsports.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/alabama1.jpg)

YELDON AGAIN!!

Need to get AJ out of the game before he gets his butt kicked though.

So, who does CNS put in at RB to ensure that we don't score??  :clap: :clap:

Apparently Jalston Fowler is not on the sideline.  Anyone heard anything?

Kick coverage has been terrible today.

Adam Griffith saves the TD.  WTH?

Was there a taco involved?

KO coverage needs work this coming week.

Isn't this where we ask for CJ and the other starters to be pulled out?

Amen anybody??

(https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRR-dn9OSCUKcjCDmO9zk-vqa_rpjjNMrgvdY2GwhGKyWwfUPB8MA)

Put them back in.  :lol:

Put in 3-4 teamers.  Doesn't matter if we give up a score or two at this point.  We need everyone well rested and healthy in two weeks.

Duke 13   VT  7

Great hit by DePriest!

Cyrus--excellent play.

Fantastic coverage by Cy. Jones.

#+

4th-down play for Tennessee inside the Bama 10.

 :o :o :o :o :o :tinfoil: :tinfoil: :tinfoil: :tinfoil: :o :o :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:

I'll bet the QB rolls left on a run-throw option.

I wish they would pull them all, but pride is at stake for no TD's.

Touchdown.

Looks like TD Tennessee.

He scored.   >:( >:( >:(

Dammmit.  Now we have to shut out LSU!!  Whatever!

He scored. Darn!

Oh well. So they got 7.

Halfway garbage time TD. I hope Blake Sims read options their Azz all the way for another TD.

Leroy's pick was 45-10.  Hmmm.

Why in the world is AJ still in there?

Please don't get AJ hurt!

Drake slow getting up.  Looked stunned.

Cooooper with good catch.   #+

I think I had 40-10.  If it stands I'm closer.   :lol2:

Hmm, correct.  But we'll score again!

Bama has 432 yards.  My guess is SAD!

Would sure like to see Dee get one here.

You'd better sell NOW before it's too late.

Me too; but NO.

This is the question I have been asking about Saban for couple of years now. We are risking all of our best players to injury, AJ, Norwood, Drake, Steen, Yeldon, & others. Sims and others should of come in at the start of the 4th quarter at the latest.


 :wall:

AJ at least not holding.

Leroy's pick looking good!!!

Hope AJ is done now.  :popcorn2:

Be a good question, but I don't know anybody brave enough to ask him.  :lol2:

Until Derrick Henry goes in.  :lol2:

TRUE

Duke 13  Va. T 10  4th qtr
Clemson 26  Mary. 13  4th
OK 14  Tex T. 7  Half


 :popcorn2:

Beautiful play by Fulton.

Trey DePriest did not start. Did he lose his starting job?


 ???

Best news:

Looks like AJ, Christion, Cooper, CJ, Yeldon, and the O-line will go into the LSU game healthy (barring injuries at practice).

We're gonna kill them Cajuns.

Here we go!  8)

 :'(

Well TN. scored a TD. We still holding them less that 14 points. I am not sure why they took the defense out? Anyway,  am backing the coaches. RTR!

Just saw Bill Battle on the sidelines. He is doing a great job, but man, I miss seeing Coach Moore there.  :(

It would be nice to have an LSU game that doesn't put me at risk of early heart failure.

Henry looked a little slow laterally in the last series, I thought.  :popcorn2:

Yes!  It would be nice the keep the Malox bottle on the shelf as well.

Hey, don't they make glue That Derrick could put on his hands. RTR!

Alabama has 459 total yards.   :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Light the cigars, folks (you too Terrie and Breddy).

Henry almost did it again!  CNS might have tackled him!

Another W in the books.  8-0 on the year.  Seven in a row against those orange pukes up north.

Rammer Jammer!  We just beat the hell out of you.  #+

<cough cough, gag>  lol

Where was Kenny Bell today?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks for the jollies, Terrie!

 :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

Wow! Looks like the only constant in CFB is Bama.  :dance:

Duke QB was 7/25 for 107 yards with 4 INTs and they won on the road against a ranked opponent.  How does that happen?

Zero offense by the other team.


 :wall:

Bred drink up all your beer?

Sounds like Va Tech played fairly well on defense.  That is all that matters as far as I'm concerned.  Meanwhile, Bama is averaging 40+ points per game and giving up less than 10.

:popcorn2:

Mrs. 2 doesn't like smoking in the house.  Thanks for taking one for the team (meaning you and I) Terrie ;)

Believe it or not Loeffler was the one who processed o'le Gene now he is trying process Frank. :tinfoil:

new flag for the vols , LOOK MOM no T  :lol2:

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BXihpv6IMAAkfIf.jpg)


ROLL TIDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    :clap: :clap: :clap:

:lol:

Don't worry about Tennessee's 10 points.  Furman already has 10 on LSU.

Maybe.

Great win for Bama today. I don't know why Tennessee brought their band today, I didn't hear Rocky Top but just a couple of times. :clap:

 :lol: :lol: :lol:
