My Mea Culpa......
Oct 4, 2011, 4:01 PM
|

Well, in order to clarify this whole tombstone thing, I decided to go to a source, Mr. Tim Bourret.
He emailed me back and said that "win over a top 10 team in a bowl game also qualifies".
So I asked him when that changed. His response..."On January 5, 2004 when we decided, that was a pretty good win".
So I stand corrected. We CAN actually get a tombstone for the ACCCG or Bowl Game if we defeat a Top 10 team.
Now I stand before this board to take my continued lashings for calling out people for not knowing our Traditions, while I did not know the tradition, or more specifically I did not know that we actually changed/amended our tradition because we felt like a win was a "good win".
I can handle being wrong, I'm married and I'm always wrong.

Curious to know if anyone else had ever heard of this

additional qualifier before? I knew we had a tombstone for the Tenn bowl game, but never heard anything about this "top 10 opponent", not even around the time it happened. I had always heard it was a Bowden thing or somebody ordered it by mistake.
Obviously I was wrong about what it takes to get a tombstone, so I'm curious if others knew this already about the Top 10?
