As far as I'm concerned there was a 1-1 split that season and we had the higher ranked, better team so we are the SEC champions.

Ok, go ahead and claim it then

OMG! Please tell me Vol fans cannot remember back 10 years and recall the facts.

The truth is, the Vols should have lost to Florida on September 15th, 2001, except the NCAA cancelled all games due to the 9/11 attacks. The UF-UT game was pushed to December.

Fast forward to November and FSU's Darnell Dockett twists Earnest Graham's leg the week before the UF-UT game. Florida becomes one-dimensional without its feature back and the Vols D keys-in on the passing game.

UT eeks out a win - thanks to Darnell Dockett and Al-Qaeda.

So, I am glad UT lost to LSU. The Vols didn't deserve that title given the circumstances that enabled them to get to Atlanta.

Had Florida won, the SEC champ would have played for the MNC. Instead, UF tore Wisconsin a new one in the Orange Bowl. Boom!
