Title: 1995 Post by: Creek Walker on October 02, 2016, 04:22:43 EDT The last time Tennessee beat ranked teams in consecutive weeks was October 1995: 49-31 over No. 18 Arkansas one week, then 42-14 over No. 12 Alabama the next. ("Touchdown on play number one.")
The last time Tennessee was 5-0 was 1998. The last time Tennessee was part of a Top 10 matchup (which seems almost guaranteed for next week) was October 2005: No. 5 Georgia beat No. 8 us at Neyland Stadium, 27-14. The last time Tennessee was on CBS three consecutive weeks was 1998 (vs. Auburn, Georgia and Alabama). It sure is starting to feel like the old days around here. :smile: (Tennessee was on CBS three consecutive weeks in 2001, but that was a little different...Vandy, Florida and LSU. The Florida game was rescheduled and the LSU game was the SECCG, so it wasn't the weekly 3:30 CBS game.)

That was the week after a big win down at Auburn and prior to bammer. It was a very special feeling, but in truth that game was a bit bigger than today's. Both were satisfying, but this one much more so. :biggrin:

("Touchdown on play number one.") Is there a rule about 4X in a row?

Because if these cardiac kids keep up stressing my heart we and bamer will be the headliner in the SEC the 3rd Saturday in October I have to think there's a good chance we're the CBS game that week even if we don't beat TAMU. Personally, I would rather play the nightcap on ESPN. I coach soccer and our games are always in the middle of the afternoon on Saturdays. All these 3:30 starts are really cramping my style. :biggrin: |
