As for losing to the vols every season, no we didn't. But against them and the noles--the two toughest teams we faced each year--we were a combined 13-13.
My first Gator game in person was at Neyland Spurrier's first year. The Vols were winning 35-3 after three quarters and Mrs G. had had enough and we left. Fast forward to 2004. Mrs G. takes me out for my birthday and as we are leaving the restaurant we see the UF-UT game is on in the bar so we sit down and watch the second half of what ends up being a UF loss on a last second UT FG. Since that game UF has gone 15-1 against the Vols and we have always watched the game from our house; no live or out in public viewing whatsoever. Sadly, we are planning on going to the game at BHG in September. Feel free to blame me if UF loses.
I just don't get so swept up in negativity and midweek drinking that I lose all perspective.
Let's not get all judgemental on "midweek drinking."
