Things are really tightening up as we head into the last few weeks of the 2008 College Football Season. This week is the first week in over a month where the Top-10 managed to keep [...]

Thank goodness for Bruce Almighty!

Yeah, yeah, I knowa?"it was just Chattanooga.A Still the 14th ranked BasketVols 114-75 victory against the Mocs finally gave everyone in Big Orange Country a reason to smile.A This is especially true for me since I have despised Chattanooga (second only to Florida in terms of being my most hated [...]

Aww, you shouldn't havea??

Yes, it's true.A Despite the limits of good taste, the conventions of grammar, the call of life's obligations, and a complete lack of quality and talent, Gate 21 is one year old.A As the birthday header makes clear, our mascot Gus is really excited.A (You may have to refresh your browser a [...]

Finally!

Well, for some it's been basketball season since about mid-September. But after a busy last spring - Ramar Smith/ Duke Crews, the Hopson commitment and the Maze coup - and preseason - taking Negedu off Arizona's hands, D-West's unfortunate issues, and bum shoulders and bum academics - your defending SEC champs open up the 2008-08 season [...]

Well, the BasketVols get ready to tip-off the 2008-09 season this weekend. Meanwhile, all eyes are fixed on Smilin' Mike Hamilton as he searches the Country for the Tennessee Volunteers' next head football coach.A There is a lot going on in the world of Big Orange athletics, and here's the Episode 19 of the Blazer [...]

Please??

I know, I know, forfeiting - what you might call quitting - is a bad thing. But after watching the most pitiful display of football last Saturday from my nice comfortable seats in the second row of the upper deck, I really wish it just be November 30 already and the end of this horribly [...]

Despite all of the hullabaloo surrounding the Tennessee Volunteers' Football program, there is still something to get excited abouta€"basketball season is almost herea€¦

Yes, friends and neighbors it is almost time for the regular season tip-off for both the BasketVols and the Lady Vols.A In case you hadn't noticed, I have added an interactive schedule [...]

Week 11

Through 08 November 2008

Things stay interesting this week, but Penn State and Iowa may have helped keep the BCS committee from facing a repeat of last year's debacle. Thus, here is my preliminary BlogPoll Top 25 for this [...]

If you have read any of my posts over the last year, you will quickly learn that I have made it my habit to refer to Tennessee Volunteers' head coach Phillip Fulmer as "the Great Punkin."A To some, this may seem an insulta€"some thinly veiled comment on Coach Fulmer's girth.A This simply is not [...]

Mixed Emotions Reign

As I was making my breakfast shortly before 11 a.m. (I don't have class on Mondaysa€¦), I begin to hear my phone buzzing uncontrollably. Now I'm a pretty popular guy, but not that popular. I'm thinking something's up, like maybe Tennessee had made a move. I open it up to reada€¦

"After 16 seasons, [...]

a€¦ I simply cannot really decide what it is that I want to say.

I suppose I have really fallen short of being "on top" of things as a so-called sports blogger by not posting anything of substance (other than a message via the header here at the Gate) regarding the departure of Tennessee Volunteers' head [...]

Again, VolzRChamps brings us a fitting video montage honoring Coach Phillip Fulmer and his legacy.

I hope to finally get my thoughts together here later todaya€"I can honestly say that I am struggling with what to say on Fulmer's departure.A Until then, hopefully the new header here at [...]

Big Games in SEC and Big XII

So amidst the stir I more or less caused with last week's Alabama hate post and the Big Orange Roundtable collaboration and farks, I never got around to previewing the weekend's slate of games. For that I apologize now. I also apologize for more or less going M.I.A. since [...]
