That doesn't surprise me! Then again, nothing does! One bowl appearance in 100 years does not make a good football program.
I want CHAMPIONSHIPS not chicken poop! And we're getting chicken poop!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope EMU finds a way to win another non-conference road game before they drop D1 football...We don't want to be alone in that category.

I wonder if the Pokes are the last non P5 team to win at Tennessee? Just in case EMU doesn't win another road game....we still have this.

We are not just the last G5 team to win at Tennessee, but to beat them at all
