Several Tennessee sports fans expressed their anger over specific games in a recent survey. Glenn was particularly upset about the officiating in the second half of the Alabama game, feeling that the Tide benefited from favorable calls. Shemp highlighted the collapse against South Carolina in 2022 as especially frustrating.
Meanwhile, Bill pointed out the controversial fourth down call in the UT vs. Ole Miss football game, where Lane Kiffin’s perceived gamesmanship with injuries irked fans. On the other hand, David remained disappointed but not angry about losses, including the close defeat to Alabama in the past season.
Vols Mark recalled a bizarre incident during the 2010 Music City Bowl where confusion reigned after the game was wrongly declared over. He praised his wife’s quick thinking in keeping the Tennessee Music City Bowl championship T-shirts despite the chaos.
In a humorous twist, James reflected on a range of negative emotions felt towards Tennessee teams, from disappointment to betrayal, stemming from past letdowns. Columnist John Adams even shared his own story of anger during the 2001 SEC championship game against LSU, leading to canceled plans.
While the survey showcased a mix of anger and disappointment from Tennessee fans, it also highlighted the passion and dedication they have towards their teams. Despite the frustrations detailed in the responses, fans continue to support and follow the Vols through wins, losses, and controversial moments on the field.
