This year is a little different, because nobody really expected us to be here anyway - so it kinda feels like playing with house money. Excited as hell to be here but won’t be devastated if we lose. But to answer your question, yes, the week leading up to the game is generally anxiety filled. That’s what makes it fun. If it didn’t mean anything, it wouldn’t be fun to win, and it wouldn’t suck to lose.

Both fan bases are very fortunate to experience those emotions.

True. We lost so much from last year. I mean winning the SEC and making the championship game was great in and of itself.

Kind of the way I felt leading up to the 2017/2018 game. The way we lost kind of made it hurt a bit more. But yeah. I was excited to be there and felt like it was house money.
