Epic rant by Tennessee fan after Georgia State loss might go down as one of the best tirades in cfb history

It has long been proven that those of us living below the Mason-Dixon line take our college football just a tad too seriously. Hell, even the SEC validated the truth with the conference’s own motto, “It Just Means More.” That was never more evident than after Tennessee’s humiliating week one loss to Georgia State when a Vol die-hard called up a Knoxville radio station (Fox Sports Knoxville on 105.7 FM/ 1340 AM) and left one of the most epic, impassioned college football rants that you will ever hear.

Transcript:
“I mean I’d like to tell you that I’m fucking surprised, but I’m not, that you won’t answer the got damn phone. Worst loss in program history. You have talked to everybody in the got damn city of Knoxville last night, you fucking cocksucker, but you can’t even pick up the phone to talk me down off a ledge?
And we’ve got a got damn, dip shit, gump motherfucker from Opp, Alabama, eating Jiffy peanut butter bald headed bitch boy.
And you can’t even have the got damn common courtesy to pick up the phone, so we can talk about WHAT THE FUCK WE’RE GONNA TALK ABOUT ON THE GOT DAMN RADIO BECAUSE OUR FOOTBALL PROGRAM IS DEAD, DEAD, D-E-A-D, DEAD!”
After doing a little research, we discovered that the man better known as “Bear” who left the magnificent meltdown on voicemail is actually the co-host of WKGN’s afternoon show “The Drive” with host Russell Smith, the recipient of the epic rant.
Fortunately for college football fans across the country, you can likely expect more emotional meltdowns from Tennessee fans this season considering how the Vols followed up the Georgia State loss with an agonizing defeat against BYU.
Not to mention, after Jeremy Pruitt’s boys host the Mocs of Chattanooga this weekend, the (0-2) Vols go on the road to play No. 9 Florida in The Swamp before coming back home to host No. 3 Georgia and then follow that up with Mississippi State at home, No. 1 Alabama in Tuscaloosa, and South Carolina in Neyland. In other words, grab your popcorn and say a prayer for your Tennessee brethren because 1-6 is a very distinct possibility, along with some of the most epic rants college football has to offer.
