You must be going way back in time, considering the last 10 years UT has been winning only 60% of their games. Then again 60% may be considered successful to Tennessee fans. My bad.

Casey Clausen finding CJ Fayton on 4th and 19 in 2003

My favorite game of the year
See you in 4 days, Bama fans.
Agreed, but I have to add another one.
The Third Saturday in October:
Doesn't care what rival fans think about it, under any circumstance.
See you there, Vols.

Its just the name you stupid fricks
We didn't change the name of the Iron Bowl when the game stopped being played in Birmingham either
Bama UT was always played on the 3rd Saturday in October. This was changed, I believe by Phil Fulmer, to the 4th Saturday so that UT could take a bye week ahead of the Bama game. Which they did, every year until this year.
UT had to move their bye week this year b/c the SEC passed a rule that no team will have to face any more than 3 teams coming off a bye in one season (after Alabama ended up getting scheduled to play 6 teams coming off a bye last year)
Nobody cares the game is played a week later, we just care about the game in general. Sorry you miserable fricks at LSU dont understand, why dont ya'll go get pumped up for your "rivalry" against Ole Miss

But we're ignoring this point because it doesn't support the premise which has been repeated fifteen trillion times in this thread alone, each with a little twist to make it "original" and "witty."
To wit, that the third Saturday in October was last week, and Alabama and Tennessee didn't play that day.

he said ALL TIME... that generally means ALL TIME (as in all of the times played)
only LSU fans think "ALL TIME" means going back ten years to 2000

Again, the Iron and Steel Industry of Alabama is not exclusive to Jefferson County.

No...conference expansion began in 1990 and that's why we're having this debate. You claim that the Alabama-Tennessee rivalry is a bad rivalry that should be discontinued when, since South Carolina and Arkansas first joined the conference, the series has been dead even.

according to LSU fans CFB didn't exist before 2000
So now we are allowed to talk about overall records without being accused by LSU fans of "living in the past?"

A majority of those games were decided by 1 score, but why let facts get in the way?
