Allowed. That gives us co-champs, as well as 2 seed. Wouldn’t meet UK until finals. I’m usually not for being handed stuff like that, but this team has gotten screwed by officiating all year, and especially against LSU.

I agree with all that

I’m talking abut the bracket. It’s not as simple as moving up a spot. And teams in early games have already started gameplanning. I was just wondering the logistics

Reading a "10 fastest CFB players on 2019" article - Texas, TCU, Auburn each have 2. UGA has 1 (Demetris Robertson). Auburn has the top 2 spots, with Anthony Schwartz #1. The way he burned us last year off a 10 yard pass for a TD, I can't disagree. It's criminal if Gus doesn't get him 10 touches a game this year.

I long for the days we had converted track stars all over the field. Hell, just scour the dang country for track stars and give em PWOs and a track scholarship. If even 1-2 can play, they could change the dynamic.

On this topic -
Who is our fastest guy?
Who is our fastest incoming freshman?

I'll go with Byrd and Means.

Now reading Athlon's top 50 players for 2019 (72 spots once you include runner-ups). Not a single Vol and I have a hard time disagreeing.

No one immediately stands out to you on this team, except Bryce Thompson and his potential. Trey Smith obviously had he been healthy. Warrior has an outside shot of taking off finally too I believe. Callaway as well if he gets more balls thrown to him. They aren't choosing any true freshmen and that's where our best raw talent lies.

I guess that means Bryce Thompson is imo our best player, truly crazy considering if USC was even slightly competent they woukd have gotten him eligible and in. Sucks for them bwahahaha

Both Quavaris Crouch and Daniel Bituli started practice working with the inside linebackers like usual, but after a couple periods they ended up moving over to the outside linebacker group. Jeremy Pruitt has mentioned before that he likes to have “four-for-four” linebackers, meaning he likes to have LBs who can play all four positions on the field in his base 3-4 scheme. It’s likely those two were receiving some cross-training to get more experience or to help out with numbers at that unit.
[*]Speaking of Crouch, he continues to get coached up by UT’s linebacker coaches. You can tell that he’s not as polished at LB as he probably is at running back since he didn’t play as much linebacker in high school, but he’s coachable and is taking to the instruction well so far.
[*]JJ Peterson, meanwhile, stayed with the inside linebackers and looked good today. I like his footwork, and I think he’s coming along well.
[*]Kingston Harris got more run along the defensive line today than he did last week. I’ll be interested to watch and see if he can land a role on the defensive line this season.
[*]Josh Palmer made an impressive one-handed grab during routes vs. air today. He continues to grow and take positive steps in his development as the potential No. 3 receiver in UT’s offense this upcoming season.
[*]Deangelo Gibbs looks like a natural at wide receiver, which really makes me wonder why Georgia stuck him back at defensive back. I understand they had a bigger need for him at that position, but he just seems like a gifted receiver to me. He certainly still has some things to learn to fine-tune his habits and overall play, but I really like his upside there.
[*]Jarrett Guarantano is the clear front-runner at the quarterback position right now. Both JT Shrout and Brian Maurer show flashes at times, particularly Maurer when he has to move around and throw, but Guarantano is clearly the most consistent of the QBs right now and has a better grasp of his mechanics and the offense.
[*]Jeremy Pruitt stayed exclusively with the defensive backs during the open portion of practice today. Jim Chaney stuck around the quarterbacks and wide receivers for the most part from what I saw.

This shouldn't suprise anyone but my wifes friend rents a home that Holly Warlick and Holly's mother own off of Northshore. Evidently, Holly knows that when the season ends, she is on her way out.

Lol nope. But the dating market is pretty terrible for average Joes these days. Tinder and dating apps have made it easier than ever for women and really handsome dudes to get laid or find dates. They’ve done studies where women only find something like 15-20% of men attractive and the numbers are even worse on dating sites.

Yeah that makes sense a dating app would skew standards to be unreasonable. Kind of like how porn has been shown to warp mens' minds on what is attractive and expected.

TV, social media, etc don't help. Everyone looks fantastic in their filtered bikini photo from the Bahamas. And it's weird how people are constantly going on exotic trips and clearly live baller lives, even though you know they are a public school teacher.

Everything online now is curated for image and when people go out into the real world they are disappointed.

If you don’t look like Brad Pitt and are regularly turning down women’s advances, an open marriage is usually a raw, one-sided deal for men. Unless you are into, ahem, bigger ladies.

Depends on if you want to play the game. As a middle aged guy, if you can't get others in your age range, you can play 1 of 2 games - go cougar hunting or be a sugar daddy. Or, like you said...bigger ladies. Also helps if you are rich or swangin the lumber.

What’s wrong with JJ Peterson? 3 times in this vid he acts hurt. He comes out of the trampoline and holds his leg. He comes out and hits the tackle thing and rotates his arm like he hurt his shoulder. You can hear a coach say “you’re alright!”. Then crouch comes out and lifts him up and he doubles over holding his stomach like he hurt his ribs

Hey, when I was on the scene it was very simple. When I was interested in a hot girl, I just went up to her with a warm smile and a friendly hello and it worked every time.

Oh, and I also licked my eyebrows, so there was that too.
