[QUOTE="Crow Terminator, post: 4801988, member: 220"] [b]Re: ALABAMA v vols[/b] You guys that saw the game on TV, got to see a lot of details and upclose stuff that people in the stands did not get to see and are not aware of. You go to a game for the experience...the stuff that you can't see or experience watching it on TV. The pregame and half time stuff is cool.
