I am a Tennessee fan. You will catch me rooting for the Orange and
White on just about every Saturday in the fall…every Saturday but the one
coming up this weekend. Chad and I usually
root for the same team on any given Saturday…any one but this one. You see I was a Mississippi State fan long
before I became a Tennessee Vol fan. I
hold degrees from both schools but I graduated from MSU first and it is nearest
and dearest to my heart.
The bond we usually share as
we root for any team playing Alabama (ha ha just kidding, not really), will be
replaced by weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth (mainly by Chad of course)
as we argue with the referees and mumble about the plays we would’ve called for
our teams. I foresee Cooper and Jacob
siding with their daddy while Grey and Sophie Kate will cheer for the Maroon and
White. This weekend we will truly be a
house divided.
There’s a lot on the line
seeing as how this particular match up does not occur every season. There will be bragging rights for the winner
for years to come…and with my Bulldogs going into this game 5-0 and playing at
home, I think those Vols are ripe for a Bulldog smack down. Hopefully I'll have a reason to ring my cowbell Saturday night, either way should be a fun football weekend.
