Really, could you have asked for a worse match-up if you are a Tennessee Vols fan? It’s not like it’s new, given the fact that Florida and Alabama have played for the conference title seven times since it began in 1992.
But it never gets any easier to watch.
Nobody wants to see their two most hated teams playing for their team’s league championship, especially when one team has a chance at even greater accomplishments down the road.
For many NFL fans, this would be like the Cowboys and Patriots in the Super Bowl.
Tennessee surrendered late fourth-quarter leads against both of these teams, and they hate them more than any other team.
