Good Times.

Dennis Franchione was is the middle of ruining your program. Phil Fulmer was roaming the sidelines.

You all snuck into the cotton bowl due to a HTH win against Tech and OU/UT going to NY6 bowls.

It was early. cold.

We whooped you all up & down the field and it was 38-0 near the close of the game. Clausen looked like Manziel with a 172 passer rating. You all turned the ball over a bijillion times.

Good times...and the same thing will happen in Knoville tomorrow.

There was no such thing as NY6 bowls back then. You both went to a non-bcs bowl

You lost by double digits to us. You’re not beating Aggie tomorrow.

Well, I'll definitely be concerned if Dennis Francione shows up on the A&M sideline at Neyland Stadium tomorrow. Or if Jimbo coaches while wearing a Francione mask. You got that right.

Fulmer, however, will presumably be up there in a luxury suite. We'll just have to take our chances with him.

I remember waking up and watching that game. One of the more dominating bowl performances I’ve seen in a P5 matchup.

I still have the heavy suede coat I wore from the last time we played there which was a win against Texas in 2000 I believe. Was cold early but got up to about 50 by kickoff. And then I saw us lose to Troy Aikman before that one.

Remember it well. But this is an SEC A&M team, instead of that weak Franchione knockoff

Tennessee was much more talented than A&M at that time. That’s not the case any longer.
