Even though the score board read Kentucky 80 Tennessee 78, and the hearts of the orange blooded faithful were ripped out and left on the court like like a steaming pile of bluegrass thoroughbred biscuits, last night's game only reaffirms that this year the Vol Nation is winner. Who would have thought last October that 24,000 Tennessee fans would come to a basketball game - that's right, a men's basketball game - to form the world's largest checkerboard. Thanks Coach Pearl and the men in Orange!
