IIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTT’SSSSSSSSSS MONDAY!!!
And a Super Bowl-winning victory Monday at that. As such, it’s time to grab an orange and white pickaxe and dig out the Tennessee Volunteer-related thought nuggets stuck throughout my brain.
1) What an environment at Neyland. That looked and sounded wild, so credit to the fans for being an X-factor. And to the smart aleck who ribbed me last week for mentioning the players’ intensity level for this game as a key factor, well, guess what? It mattered greatly. The Vols obviously fed off the environment and showed twice as much fight as they have the rest of this year.
