Week 2 CFP - Vols ranked 5th

[Aussie Vol]

There we go.

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

We're in a good spot. TCU loses and we're in. If OSU/UM is a blowout either way we'll probably be in too.

 

[tennesseepride84]

We need Texas to stomp TCU. As for Tennessee no emptying the bench if we get a big lead, we gotta pour it on.

We're in a good spot. TCU loses and we're in. If OSU/UM is a blowout either way we'll probably be in too.

Don’t think so. You are sleeping on Oregon. If they win out they are in. We are likely screwed.

 

[NighthawkVol]

We're in a good spot. TCU loses and we're in. If OSU/UM is a blowout either way we'll probably be in too.

We should be ahead of Michigan-Ohio State loser regardless. They haven’t played anyone else.

Don’t think so. You are sleeping on Oregon. If they win out they are in. We are likely screwed.

Ha! We’re in perfect spot. No way the OSU/UM loser stays in front of us. TCU will lose and so will Oregon. We will be the 3 seed.

Exactly

I agree. The ESPN team are heavily pushing Oregon's agenda. Loads of other factors too! Have to win out with style points and have a few things go into place.

 

[Switch 625]

The head of the CFP committee looks like a televangelist

Yup no way The Big 10 gets two teams in and SEC only gets one if we only have 1 loss. Now if LSU handles UGA in the SEC Championship they may leap frog us. I think it's BS because we stomped them in Baton Rouge but it would be hard to keep the SEC Champ out of the playoffs

Last week: "this team is the best in the country"
*loses to their new #1"
"Oh now they're actually worse than osu, Michigan and tcu, because reasons"
Tenn is being penalized for not beating a 3rd top 10 in 5 games.
The old "they can't help who is on their schedule" argument that they give teams like OSU or Clemson is BS because they penalize teams that actually have a really hard schedule.

 

[Chilmonty]

Well we only have 5 ranked wins and TCU has……uhhh……?

 

[DocVol]

1st to 5th after losing to unanimous #1 team is absurd.
That being said, TN is in a great spot.

 

[BP4Prez]

Don’t think so. You are sleeping on Oregon. If they win out they are in. We are likely screwed.

I agree but think OSU/Mich loser will be out.

 

[VOLinAL]

We need to win by 4 TDs minimum each of these upcoming games to show we still got it. We would be safe if TCU goes down and the OSU vs UM game is a blowout. TCU is our biggest need to drop. Little worried about Oregon or any 1 loss pac 12 champ tbh if the previous situations don’t come to fruition.

 

[Orange931]

Well we only have 5 ranked wins and TCU has……uhhh……?

I mean for sh*ts sake, we have two wins against CURRENT top 10 CFP teams. That’s enough right there.

 

[BubbaDoc]

We need Texas to stomp TCU. As for Tennessee no emptying the bench if we get a big lead, we gotta pour it on.

Pedal to the metal.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I still think the committee finds a way to screw us

 

[VOLnMiami]

Don’t think so. You are sleeping on Oregon. If they win out they are in. We are likely screwed.

Oregon won't get in over us...Our resume is better.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

TCU is a joke.

They’re likely a 2-3 loss team with our schedule.

 

[Other_Guy]

1st to 5th after losing to unanimous #1 team is absurd.
That being said, TN is in a great spot.

Somehow the committee now believes that OSU is actually better than Tenn now.

Must've been that dominating performance over Northwestern.

 

[Vol8188]

TCU will not be in the playoff. Even if they go 13-0.

Lol. If Bama is 10-2, our win is still very much a good look. If LSU is 10-2 or 9-3 our win still looks very good.

And quit crying about TCU and Clemson needing a loss. Clemson is going 13-0* TCU is irrelevant

0-2 (Clemson losses and TCU in) and so fast. I’ll assume you were just drinking heavily after the game, which I empathize with

 

[obxvol]

Yep. TCU won’t get past Texas and Baylor unscathed. Hell they might lose both. Oregon will probably lose to Utah and even Oregon State. We are in good shape. Just need to absolutely curb stomp the SEC step kids coming up.

 

[Orange931]

TCU is a joke.

They’re likely a 2-3 loss team with our schedule.

That’s being nice. They would lose to Bama, LSU, UGA and even Florida most likely.

They have 4
