I was there for that '99 season.  My Lord, I'd rather watch paint dry than Rusty Williams and Markeith Cooper try to split carries again.

I don't believe I have to answer that question.

I was wondering.  Will there be cheese?

All that list did was make me once again splooge over Cam Newton. 

2010 went undefeated in the toughest SEC West in the last 25 years.  Against some of the most talented defenses of the last 25 years.  And in the TEN games against opponents with winning records - see ten opponents that went to bowl games - it averaged 271 yards per game.

While I know the defense was rather piss poor for a national championship team, the fact that they faced so much stiff competition and put up such gawdy stats, it has to be considered one of the best all time.

Forgot about him.  How did we have so many 190lb running backs with average speed?

Thank God for Rudi Johnson.

Because Tater Tot went and pissed off all of the local high school coaches.  He was the original Scat Man....

God I can only imagine how good we would have been if Dameyune would have had a decent running back. I still taste the turf of that 1996 UF game when they realized our only weapon was Craig, and they pretty much blitzed the entire second half.

For those youngsters on here Craig was Cam before Cam knew who Cam was.

Those rushing totals make me moist.

No love for Cincade Pennington?

Part of that time, Tot had 220 pound Fred Beasley on the bench.  Tot wanted to be just like Diddy.  He wanted a 180 pound Warrick Dunn.

Look at fucking 1997 ...we were one point away from beating a Peyton Manning UT team for the SEC championship and that was still a 10 win season.  I would kill to have a QB of Craig's stature back there this year. He was the offense.

That was also when we had WR's that knew how to catch a ball.

I caught the SEC championship game against Peyton Manning's Vols recently.  With zero fucking help from the rest of the offense (or the defense, really, for that matter) Dameyune had us in that fucking game.

Everyone forgets that Craig was in the thick of the Heisman race until the UF game.

I was there man..in the stands...I cried.  We should have won that fucking game!

Yep.  They couldn't stop us.  Should have just let them score towards the end and stop wasting clock.  Just Ole! Free Pass!  Leave us a minute and a half and we win.

Takeo Spikes says, "Fuck you man." Main thing I remeber from that game is Karsten Bailey dropping a sure fucking TD right in his hands as well as some others that pretty much cost us the game.
