Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

Heard this song in the gym today, and thought, catchy tune. Then it immediately became the worst song I’ve ever heard!
Give it a listen if you haven’t already, for those that have, you already know.

Hey sorry I don't listen to songs without explicit permission from @DeusExMachina

I just read that they are either picking:

-8 game conference schedule with 1 repeating opponent and 7 rotating
-9 game conference schedule with 3 repeating opponents and 6 rotating

...both of these allowing playing every team at least once every other year.

Give me 9 with three repeating. Bama, Vandy, Kentucky.

Or this a couple months later …

Bama would get us and Auburn, then they would probably get Vandy to keep it even. Which means Vandy would have to play us and Bama and would probably have to get Vandy for a third game because they need a cupcake.

We are most of the way through Day 2 of the tournament and we still haven't completed the first round. With no end to these storms until Friday... I'm not sure if they'll complete the tournament before selection day on Monday. The current schedule is to have the championship at 3pm Sunday. We're probably looking at some double headers on Saturday at least. Cramming the fourth round elimination games before the semifinals.

Funny, but in all seriousness Vandy would probably get us, Georgia, and Ole Miss. Bama would get us, Auburn, and Mississippi State. They'll probably argue Miss State is such close proximity they should be a permanent and it keeps it a little more even.

Are there any rules in place to protect us from Jeffrey Macias umpiring any of our games? Or is that just the type of protection that is afforded to the Bamas?

 

[tnvols72]

Is this any good? It works great for me, but was curious how it compares to others. . .

Not sure if this helps. But until I got a new laptop my download was about 80 if I was lucky.

Stupid song....
This is a much better song.

Bat flip contest and call it a tournament.

 

[BigSteve09]

WynnBet set the over/under for the 2022 Tennessee Volunteers at 8.5.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Don't know much about a lot of this but I am loving my tv set up immensly so far. I have had ATT internet with their UVerse tv package for several years and switched to their fiber optic internet coupled with DirectTV Stream. Main thing I love so far is sitting on my couch and saying "SEC Network" and it goes there immediately. My monthly bill goes down $40 as well.

ATT Uverse is their dsl. Essentially dial up.

ATT is a true GPON fiber network. Legit.

Top fast ball speed to determine winner.

That is insane. 16 months ago people wouldve called you a nutcase if you mentioned 9 wins this year.

That's a tough call imo

 

[BigSteve09]

That is insane.

I'm wondering how many games we are currently favored in, or will be favored in. Probably 9, which gives them this number.

 

[engineerVOL]

Is there anything on Amazon that isn’t cheap Chinese crap.

 

[BigSteve09]

From a couple of days ago:
College football updated SP+ preseason projections for 2022

Bama 2
UGA 3
Vols 9
Pitt 19
UK 20
UF 23
LSU 36
SCar 46
Mizz 52

Vandy 115

Alabamer needs to get us, LSU, and Auburn. You can't take away the bammer game away from LSU; it's a ratings bonanza and their big hate game. (Old Piss is their old time, memory-lane rival (aka TN-Vandy)).

This happens because we get put in the weak sisters half of the conference for purposes of scheduling. Why not? (For once the last 20 years works to our advantage. They have us with bammer, Vandy, and USCjr.

Look at the SI article @BigSteve09 posted. Surprisingly, what is proposed there is pretty good.

9 game. Hands down 9 game

rooting for the 3-6-6 model, by the way. Seems like the best, and the one that would allow us to play the most conference opponents, and get some new scenery.

Whatever happens, I just hope they don't try to hold neutral site games in Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, New Orleans, Nashville, Charlotte. I'm ok with rotating the SEC Championship, especially if we do end up implementing our own playoff. But I want to go see other campuses, and I want to host more fanbases.

I am so glad we have DW at the plate when this conference re-scheduling is going down.

Rest the arms for regionals. Bigger picture. Who cares about Hoover? JMO at this point

Easy — it was a touchdown.

There's no way in hell they can get away with separating Tennessee and Kentucky. 117 meetings dating back to 1893. Meeting every year since both schools joined the SEC in 1932, and the beer barrel started in 1925. I could trade USC for Vandy.
