“Oh well, that is “Home field” in Tuscaloosa.”

I still would rather play Alabama in Tuscaloosa than to play Florida in the Swamp. And Tennessee lost in both places. I wonder how bad Tennessee and the refs will beat Georgia when they the Dawgs got to Rocky Top.

ps: Wonder why Georgia plays Florida in Jacksonville?

Good Point. I’ve been watching and being at these games for over 40 years.

I was that young kid in 1978 selling those Coca-Colas with a 22 pound rack at Neyland.

College Football is a designed sport. Tennessee never had a chance in Tuscaloosa this year.

It is what it is.

It is payback for a bowl game.

You know what I mean.

It’s a tradition that goes waaaay back ...30’s? 40’s?

Many, many decades ago, Florida and Georgia wanted to play each other, but neither had enough money to go to each others fields, so they decided to meet each other halfway in Jacksonville, a neutral field, and it’s been that way ever since............
