As a Tenn fan, when would you say it ended for your program?


I think the LSU-UT SEC Championship game in 2001 started the slide. UT had already booked their tickets for the national championship game at the Rose Bowl when upstart LSU upset them.

Actually, LSU won the SEC in 1975 and that year was their first NCAA Tourney appearance.

I was a freshman at LSU in '75 and I recall the Box being just what was concrete behind the plate. No bleachers. No fans either. Maybe 200 on a good night? I remember students could go to the games for $1 with student ID and they begged people to go.

Holy shite students got screwed in 1975. The games are free now. They were basically paying $5 for what is now free

Baseball - Started in 1984 with the hiring of Skip Bertman, although we did win 5 SEC titles prior to his hiring.


and those 5 SEC championships are far more than the lifetime of the UT program. their baseball program, other than under Delmonico sucked and then y'all fired him.

For Tennessee fans:
Football ended in 2001
Basket Ball: your dream coach is at Auburn
Baseball: No real good start date for them.

Its the ultimate compliment. When no one hates you or is trolling then you're irrelevant. When is the last time you wanted to troll Tennessee? Women's basketball?

tenn is 10th all time in fb wins, lsu is 12th. given the recent trends, lsu could pass tenn in a few years. tenn does not "own" lsu in fb and lsu's success isn't recent, genius

Well, for Tennessee fans Football ENDED when LSU kicked your arse in the SEC Championship Game in 2001. I laughed my arse off at all those Orange Roses you Hillbillies left scattered all over Atlanta when you realized your #2 Vols had just gotten beat and were out of the NC picture.

And for good measure LSU beat your asses again in 2007 on our way to the National Title. Go buy some shoes you Gully Jumper.

Skip Bertman and Ron Polk made the SEC baseball race what it is today.

Skip is the Godfather of SEC college baseball .
