Fashion break, part two: Tennessee also embraces its dark side

By Matt Hinton

Obviously, the dark holiday brings out the black heats in the SEC East:

After Georgia rolled out the black helmets and britches for its loss at Florida today, Tennessee thought it would be a nice idea to throw in a little Halloween motif with the black jerseys at home against South Carolina -- despite the overwhelming disapproval of Vol fans on the issue this summer. It doesn't seem to be hurting in the first half: UT leads the Gamecocks 21-3 going into the break, which should be enough to convert a few of the purists. (But a few.)

Which is all well and good, but misses the essential question: What does Lil Wayne think?

    Let me start.
    For the two-dozenth time tonight. heard Stevie call his team stupid at the halftime interview.
    Yes Steve is a good coach. But time to learn, Stevie, the team is only and no better than a reflection of the coach. No better. No worse, Buck stops there.
    So no one can argue that Steve is a genius of college coaches, but like all savants they often have their "idiot" side. Maybe STeve's was coming to this school and thinking he could walk on water and pull the USC baot to a title on his sheer genius.
    Instead he got "stupid"
    Big mirror, Stevei boy.
    Time to go Steve. No love lost. Go find a team that can make you look smarter, cause it will be a looong look. Even Duke couldn't pull you out again.
    Gamecocks have outgrown you.

    Hey Tennessee and Georgia: YOU ARE NOT OREGON. You are not as cool as Oregon. You don't run a gimmick offense like Oregon, or play on a multi-colored field like Oregon (and my copycat Huskers).
    Going against tradition with stupid uniforms is a bad move. Ask the 2003 Huskers, who went with a red gusset on their road unis. Finished 7-7.
    UT has a great uniform. So does Georgia. Both tried to get cute today. Georgia's results stunk. UT's weren't much better (beating South Carolina is not a "great success!" as Borat would put it).

    Gamecocks have outgrown Steve Spurrier??? I don't THINK so... Spurrier is the best thing to happen to SC since George Rogers. At least now, SC can be spoken of seriously at midseason... When Spurrier showed up there, SC was no more a threat to anybody than "open date". bluesbrotherusc, your head is so far up your @ss that you can smell your own breath. Instead of cracking on one of the best who ever pulled on a visor, maybe you could do the Gamecocks some REAL good by getting lost. NOBODY needs fair-weather fans like you.

    Hey Jacob - your mom called and said its time to get off the computer, take off your Halloween toy store Oregon uniform, and wash up for supper. By the way, Boise State would like you guys to come back and talk some more smack. VOLS roll 31 -13.
    PS You must pump gas for a living.
