I was sitting in the stands for that game. The loss to FIU was the first game I ever put a bet on. Loss to Florida in the SEC championship is the only game that ever put me in a legit state of depression though.

VT beat the shite out of us in the Music City Bowl, I would say the honk if you sacked .... (I wont finish the statement) game but we shouldn't have won more than 3 games after Prothro went down.

My undergraduate career was 3 years of Shula and year 1 debacle of Saban. It wasn't not the best of times. It included

- 0-4 vs Auburn
- 2-2 vs TN
- 0-4 vs LSU
- trips to F'ville for Tiffin's clank fest and Gainesville in back to back weekends
- loss at home to Mississippi State when they hadn't won a road game in about 10 years
- trip to Starkville to get croomed in 2007
- trip to Jacksonville to watch the single worst college football game I've ever seen against FSU
- loss at home to ULM

Then I got 2008 as sort of a cosmic consolation prize with the trips to Atlanta, Athens and Baton Rouge but then also went to that SECCG and the miserable Sugar Bowl.

Tiffin's clank fest

It was a close game so it probably flies under the radar in a thread like this. But this just might be the one. I think I can safely say I've never melted that hard watching a game before. Also never seen a kicker singlehandedly lose a game like that except for maybe that night that Auburn kicker missed all those kicks against LSU, I think that was the same year actually. Pretty sure the Bama-Arky game was an 11:30 game too, just ruined the whole rest of the day.
