OH, IT'S HATE WEEK
Burn...you will burn...you will burn in hell, yeah you'll burn in hell...
There is a special place in our blackest of hearts for Tennessee, and it is entirely personal. We don't especially like where we're from, mostly because it's one of those places where ketchup is considered spicy, the slightest wrinkle of oddity is cause for grave concern, and country music of deplorable quality bubbles from its pores like congealed fat hardening on the surface of fetid stew. You like it? Great. We don't, and that's why we live in Atlanta, home of Adult Swim, a quiet but huge adult industry, a horde of swamp real estate investors spending money poorly, and a crumbling infrastructure and half-assedness more suitable for our tastes. Interstates are magnificent things.
We have, from birth, hated Tennessee: the indigestible-to-the-eyes shade of orange, the somnolent pre-games, the sludgy brand of football designed to eke out wins by field goals, their abuse of a fine coonhound by putting an inherently curious dog in front of 100K and daring it not to go insane with overstimulation. (Watch Smokey sometime: he is seconds away from cracking into an insane rage. We can't blame them.)
In terms of rivalry, though, things had gone limp in recent years thanks to Urban Meyer's superior coaching acumen, Erik Ainge's ability to cough up a game when you most needed him to, and Tennessee's complete inability to score points when it mattered. It felt hollow, after a while: rivalry requires a certain degree of competence on the part of your opponent, a bare minimum of respect for their inability. It is difficult to respect an opponent who lets you play the part of Dr. Manhattan: you point, they explode, and suddenly you're the child giddily holding the magnifying glass.
This all assumes you don't find someone to genuinely loathe on the other team. Ahem.

Like someone who's already said how much he is going enjoy singing "Rocky Top" all night when they beat Florida in Gainesville, or someone who accused your coach of cheating in public. Don't look at us: there's little deep emotional bonding with Urban Meyer, since his relationship with the Florida fanbase is like that of a mob boss with his prize assassin. We pay him to eliminate people in cold cash. He does that. We exchange Christmas cards and formal handshakes. Urban Meyer is not a cuddler with anyone, as far as we know, and only prizes the sweet embrace of victory and cold vengeance.
Ask Mark Richt about that. Mark Richt is the nicest human being on the planet, a man who takes in the stray children of the world, bonds with his players in teary team meetings, and probably always leaves too much money in the Starbucks' tip jar even though the barista simply turned, poured coffee, and then presented said coffee to you. Mark Richt is a saint walking among us, and Urban Meyer dropped a motherfucking safe on him and Georgia for dancing. Dancing. Dancing is festive, celebratory, nay, even cheeky, and Urban Meyer took that as justification to put UGA on the rack for four quarters and call timeouts at the end to prolong the agony.
Jack Warner once said of the director Raoul Walsh: "To Raoul Walsh burning down a whorehouse is a tender love scene.' Ditto for Urban Meyer, whose deepest satisfactions as a coach have always come from the moments where he has his opponent Dexter'd up on the operating table bound and terrified. Now he, a lowly assistant who tacked up the coaching ladder from Bowling Green, to Utah, and then to Florida, faces a guy who at 34 is riding a genetic lottery win all the way to the bank and beyond, a guy who called him a cheater in the offseason riding in with an error machine at quarterback coming off a loss to UCLA at home.
We don't think it's going to be a blowout, since Tennessee's defense should be quite good, and Florida hasn't faced someone with the defensive speed of the Volunteer line. If there's an opening though, a quivering moment where this game could turn into a complete and utter mass murder, safes are going to get dropped, and in great numbers. Never mind the fans: mind the guy they hired to take you out sitting down on the sidelines, the one with his arms folded who'll call two extra timeouts just to watch you squirm before the clock strikes and breaks the last bone in your collective bodies. He's the scary one.

I conceived a burning hatred of Tennessee after Spurrier’s first season. They gave us a serious beatdown, which is bad enough, but they took it to a new level when their students celebrated by chanting “our students don’t get killed” For those who don’t get the meaning of that, this was a wittly little reference to five UF students butchered by a serial killer in the weeks before the game. Anyone who was there will tell you It was a seriously shitty time to live in Gainesville, so you can imagine how well that went over.
The next time we played them was a night game in the swamp, and was one of the most intense game day atmospheres I’ve ever been a part of. The student section at that time sat right behind the visitor’s bench and sent a non stop barrage of cups and other detritus down on their heads. Good times. Ended up getting the student sectionn moved around though.
Now I just hope the cameras catch the exact moment Kiffykin’s bowels turn to water under the basilisk stare of Urban.

I don’t expect it to be close (regardless of how good our D is). I’m guessing UF 63 UT 10 and I’m expecting that Urban will use his full complement of time outs in the 4th quarter in his attempt to get it to 70.
But I also remember that in SOS first year, he came to Knoxville and Majors and the Vols put it on him more than was required. We know how that story ran for the next 10 years as the tables turned in an unseemly way (from a Vol perspective).
So enjoy the moment (or two or three). Drop your damn safe. Drop it more than once if you like. Drop it on the band. Drop it on Smokey. God knows enough gator s—t has been dropped (and thrown and excreted) on Vol fans over the years. We expect nothing less and many frankly are refreshed that someone from our side decided to dish some s—t back for once. (oh and before someone comments, yes we know, Lane said a bunch of s—t before he’s done anything on the field. Yes he has to back it up. Maybe he won’t. But it was fun watching the reaction from people, if classy, would’ve stayed above the fray. You’re on top of the college football world. why be so offended.)

Meyer’s rushing 11 (twice) on a back-up punter in a blow-out at Colorado State showed me he was just the kind of cold blodded killer UF was looking for after Zook’s firing earlier that season. Sonny Lubbick (the “Bobby Bowden of the West”) didn’t ask for much of anything either (other than some offense he must have given to a young Urban Meyer while on his staff), and he had the safe dropped on him.
Meyer doesn’t generate the warm and fuzzies like Spurrier, but his taste for vegance makes him the kind of northerner who can be embraced by Gator fans. Just hope the Gators don’t hyperventilate, as they did in the unfortunate 2007 “revenge game of the century” against Auburn.

Tough, tough week for a Tide fan. Obviously, we’re all in agreement that Kiffeykins is a silver spoon fed, born on 3rd base thinking he hit a triple, way too hot wife, never accomplished a damn thing sunnavabitch and I want him to fail so spectacularly that he sets Tennessee back 10 years ala Mike Dubose ruining nearly an entire decade for Bama fans.
That being said, as we are running in the proverbial 2nd seat in the conference, trying to take the crown from the apparently never going to run out of 5’9" 180 4.1 running quarkbacks, Jesus 2.0 (now taller and with wind-up baby rhino action), and the Voldemort to our Darth Vader at coach, I need Florida to lose.

I am most curious if Charlie Strong will pull out all the defensive schemes this week to try to keep Tennessee from scoring a touchdown or continue to keep most of it close to his chest for an important game like at LSU. Probably depends on how much the fumbly offense is shooting itself in the foot that day.

When I came to Florida, I did not have any feeling towards Tennessee. Then I attended that fateful game in 2001, delayed after 9/11 and moved to the last game of the year. All UF needed was a win and we were smelling roses. That little UT bastard running back ran for 800 yards, and UF’s last second 2-pt conversion failed. The sight and sound of Clausen leading the UT band playing Rocky Top was seared into my memory. Now, whenever I hear Rocky Top, I want to punch a baby. Preferably a baby wearing creamsicle orange who already has more teeth than both his parents combined.
I hate Tennessee and I hate Lane Kiffin. And I love thinking about the ways in which Urban Meyer will make sure that Kiffikins never crosses him again. You ask why, when on top of the world, you would care about Kiffin’s comments. Well, Urban knows that getting to the top isn’t the goal, it’s staying on top. And the only way to stay on top is to never let the fire die. Thank you, Lane Kiffin, for pouring kerosene on that Gator flame. May god have mercy on your soul.

You hate us because of our fight song…sounds like a great argument. And who is calling who a hillbilly? Has anyone here ever been to Alabama? or hell Mississippi? And not to mention a large percent of Florida fans, all those from the middle of the state are up there in terms of complete toothless wonderpups who can’t count past 22 (thank the Lord…or maybe inbreeding…for those extra toes).
Sure Kiffin said some s*it but people are talking about the Vols, better than being completely forgotten. And of course the Gators are going to sh*tkick us, we have no quarterback. The defense should make it at least respectable in the first half but it’ll end up ugly. But I think in the end, Kiffin will make the Vols a factor in the SEC in the coming seasons. You can’t expect a program with the economic power that UT has to just sit around and become content with mediocrity.

@32. Even after 2001, I never hated Tennessee too much until my freshman year (2002) when the marching band made the brilliant decision to march back to our buses from Neyland past a parking garage. Having a full beer can explode at your feet from 3 stories up is an experience.
And then of course in 2004 only about 2/3 of the crowd was still around to watch Dallas Baker get his personal foul, the refs fuck up the clock, and Ron Zook position himself in front of the firing squad.

Berry led the team in tackles and had a TFL. Don’t know if that counts as neutralizing him, but Monte said he wanted to move EB around and so far he’s done that. I don’t remember UCLA throwing a pass more than 5 yards downfield either. Their longest scoring drive was 51 yards, their only TD drive was 35 yards. It was basically the same as the UF game last year: the offense turned it over repeatedly putting the defense in bad situations.
I think the easy correction to this is Cromps throwing the bomb often, because when it gets intercepted it’s like a punt. Otherwise I don’t see how UT can win, although we were 27 point ’dogs in 2001 also……

To put it another way – you’re acting like Urban is Brother Mouzone, which he is not. He’s not Stringer Bell, either: lop 27 inches or so off of String and you have his Croatian doppleganger over there at ’Bama.
What you have, with Urban, is Maurice Levy. Cunning, brilliantly calculating, despicable. Perhaps feared, but respected little. His victories are all the more galling because you know deep down he’s a whiny little fuck.
(By the way, endless fun can be had using The Wire to peg SEC coaches. Les Miles as Hauck; Mark Richt as Daniels; Hello Kiffin as Pryzbylewski (or Ziggy, if you’re feeling especially cruel); Houston Nutt as McNulty (in general train wreck terms); Petrino as The Greek (cold-hearted, amoral, ruthless capitalist, ‘the funny thing is I’m not even Southern’).
Bonus: Pete Carroll as Sen. Clay Matthews; Charlie Weis as Jay Landsman without the funny; and, because I’m a blatant Michigan homer, Rich Rod as Omar (‘unorthodox,’ to put it mildly, and an incongruous shock to the system, but sleep on him and you’re hearing The Farmer in the Dell right before that sawed-off is up under your chin, lawya.

Go Gators! And be sure to make it back to Atlanta for the rematch with the Tide. So you can take notes from the real assassin. Oscar Meyer may not go back to making weiners but after a few more years of real domination by Saban he will flee the SEC. Just watch…

Well, this was a great read! You sir know how to turn a phrase. I have to say though that the modern SEC is nothing its founders would recognize. It’s hard to believe that the region that is steeped in Biblical mythology and spawned the term Bible Belt has had to watch its marquee football conference selling their souls to a collection of devils that would make any long time member of the La Cosa Nostra proud. SEC coaching searches will now take place in the back of Soldier of Fortune Magazine and may or may not involve the slaying of a goat.
The only thing that would make this whole situation better is if Charlie Weiss was at Auburn. Then the SEC could boast the five biggest assholes in the coaching profession.
