TOTAL FAILURE.

Somewhere in East Tennessee, a buffet will sit, ravaged by an irresistable force in an orange sweatshirt bent on taking its sorrows out on the sliced meat, steamed vegetables, and ample dessert bar of a Ponderosa Family Steakhouse. Somewhere an innocent civilian will disappear into the maw of a frustrated football coach rampaging through the streets of Knoxville. Somewhere, Randy Sanders is putting the finishing touches on a Best Buy application.

Three words for the season long collapse culminating in a loss to Vanderbilt at home: total, abject failure. And in the course of disappointing season, we've learned to seek shelter in the greatest friend to a frustrated fan: schadenfreude. Tennessee was picked by some to win the national championship. Now they're ineligble for the Music City Bowl. This life thing works out well sometimes.
