Which game do you remember most? For me it was the 1999 game. Both teams were ranked in the top 10 and I felt like Bama had a good chance to knock off the defending National Champs. Tennessee played one of their best games of the year and shut down Bama's offense 21-7. It still makes me sick hearing Rocky Top being played late in the 4th when Tennessee had the game won.
I also haven't forgot the 2003 game (4OT's). I honestly thought Alabama had the game won 3 different times. Makes me sick thinking about it.
2003 was the worst. Wasn't that the same year we went to like 3 OTs with Arkansas after blowing a 17 point lead in the 4th? That season would not end, took years off my life
I remember 1999, was at that game too. If Shaun hadn't gotten hurt I think we would have won. He and Zow both had gimp ankles and Shaun dropped a pass across the middle that pretty much sealed our loss. Probably ended up costing him a shot at the Heisman too b/c he was out for a couple weeks after
Those are 2 of my least favorite ones
Speaking of Bad ones... how about Every game against Peyton Manning, particularly the one he destroyed us in at Legion Field when he led the band in Rocky Top
Or they year we ALMOST beat Peyton, but that fat frick Freddie Kitchens through a 90+ yard pick 6 late in the 4th when we were driving for the win
