The SEC is encouraged that UT will act better in the future. Of course they are having to bring in the University of Texas (UT) to have a "UT" with class.

Yes, because nothing quite says "class" like having the school song being accused of being racist. As Yogi Berra once said, you can look it up.

I get you don't like UT, that's certainly not disguised. But to act like they're the only ones who have acted badly at a game is just ludicrous. But whatever.

Why is anyone surprised? Classless UT fans as usual.

I can name off almost a dozen instances of other SEC as well as non-SEC crowds whom became obnoxious. GA fans got tear gassed one year when they beat Florida. Tear gassed at a football game!

UT fans tell story after story of having beer thrown or poured on them in Gainsville. Fulmer's wife & kids had to go get security one year when they became harassed beyond the normal. Even Vandy has been guilty of throwing things onto the field of play, resulting in fines to the school. It cost them a win against Florida one year when CM Newton was coach.

Yes, it was a classless act on the fans part. But UT is by no means alone in this behavior, nor can I recall them doing this in the past. Not sure how you arrive at "as usual" in your comment.

I also note Pred fans got into a fight with Seattle fans last week in Nashville at a hockey game. Classless Pred fans "as usual" there too?

The red canister is an oil filter I think. That is what they used back in the old days. Then someone invented the spin on type which was easier to change then Toyota decided that a canister filter was better with 2o rings, special fitting to drain and a special wrench to remove.

Yeah, I've serviced a canister type filter before. But it wasn't on TOP of the engine, it was somewhere on the side.

Oil filter makes the most sense but it's odd looking, IMO.

Wow! How about the ending to the UT-Ole Miss game? LOL! What a fricking zoo!

Not condoning the throwing of objects, but UT fans had a couple of reasons to be upset. They were robbed on a fumble recovery/TD return. No whistle had blown but somehow the ref decided that the play was dead despite NO whistle blowing. Robbed again on the late 4th & 27 pass & catch. Even if he was short, it was a horrible spot, IMO. Fans had over 20 years of frustration pent up & they let loose. Looked like mostly the student section.

Vandy had a win on the road & managed once again to get both out-played and out-coached late in the game. Sad.

LSU schooled Florida. I think Florida was way overconfident coming into that game & LSU made them pay.

Bama & GA rolled, no surprise there. A&M had no Bama win hangover.

Iowa got boat raced. LOL! I knew they were overrated, no way were they a Top 5 team. Cincinnati looks to be a for real team.

UT will get boat raced by Bama next week, I'm afraid. Ole Miss vs LSU now seems to look like a game to watch, IMO.

Not sure what the big red canister is on the engine in the last pic? Anyone know?

Is that a flathead motor? Sure looks like it.

This young lady was awfully proud of her grand-dad's truck.

This young man was looking for the motorcycle section.

Didn't see this owner either. I would love to know his investment. Has to be close to $100K. Custom paint, bumpers, decals, lights, winch, etc. 38" tires are probably close to $300 each, maybe more?

As a multiple Jeep owner myself, I like it.

Someone certainly had some imagination on this thing. Again, I didn't get to speak to the owner. I wonder what chassis he used?

Honda engine, mostly stock interior.

Didn't get to speak to this owner, sadly. I don't think I've ever seen one of these in person. Way cool design with the outside steps for reaching the top loaded luggage.

An engine *I* had never heard of before. 5.3L GM engine with a Detroit Diesel blower. I tracked down the owner to ask about the engine size & he explained he wanted something "different" after his last motor blew up on nitrus. LOL!

Cockpit is quite cozy. Looks like a temp sensor on top of the tach?
