Welcome Back, Saturday
It's really here.
The Vols are back. The SEC is back. Saturday is back.
We always thought every offseason seemed longer than the previous one until we went through what the last six months have had in store. But Saturday still came.
It feels pretty surreal to think we're going to get to watch seven SEC football games today, but I've never looked forward to something more. The stands will look a little different, but when they put the ball on the tee, it's all the same.
While I still need Tennessee to beat South Carolina more than I need air to breathe, today is just a day for everybody to celebrate a little bit. We all made it. For the next 11 weekends, the Southeastern Conference does what it's supposed to do in the fall: play football.
So welcome back, Saturday. Welcome back.
