I agree with you, but 10 years, 11 years for UF, of this shite takes its toll on a fanbase that is used to winning at high level. We should have high expectations at UT, and I'll freely admit that I left a few games early when Dooley was our coach. That shitshow was impossible to watch.

I understand completely when we went through our stint with Auburn winning 6 in a row, LSU winning 5, and Fulmer owning Bama. We've had our fair share of fair weather fans and it fricking sucks. There's plenty of fan bases in the SEC that claim that they're loyal through thick and thin, but realistically, all have had issues with attendance and actually staying through the entire game.

Indeed. Leaving the games early in 2012 was more of a statement by the fans to the athletic department that we weren't going to tolerate a piss poor product. I still watched every game, and rooted for the team, but I refused to give the AD any of my money until they proved that they could manage it better.

Wish I could have that option with the federal government
