He’s gonna have a month to prepare as “the guy” for the bowl game, which will probably be against a good opponent in better conditions. If you want to make a fair assessment, that’s the game.

I agree...I wish someone would just give him an adrenaline inhibitor before games.

IF TCU and USC both lose next weekend, then Ohio State and a one-loss TCU should be the last two teams in. A one-loss TCU is more deserving than a 2-loss Bama IMO. There is no legitimate reason for Bama to make the playoffs. I don't care who loses. IF they make it, it's totally on Bama bias and in no way based on merit.

Agreed. But just to be clear, 2-loss Tennessee should be in over both. Obviously.

Also TCU looked much better against Texas on the road and Texas had their starting Quarterback all game against TCU. It’s a no brainer and the committee would see it that was. TCU just needs to either win or lose a close game.

JWT not in the pic, portal bound?

Where was JWT? Could he not play so he could redshirt?

That would suck lol

Alyssa Milano is a pretty woman, but she's not that bright.

And yet millions upon million upon millions of idiots think just like her, if you don't agree with them, you are a Nazi and deserve the destruction of your life or outright death.

Our country is doomed.

Everyone saying "I'd love to get x or y team" must not have seen Milton look pretty rough tonight. We are going to struggle against just about any decent team in the bowl.

Horrid conditions

 

[Ten_Titans]

That would suck lol

Well we know that feel lol

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Meh, if he hit the deep throw none of y’all would be complaining. So it’s more like he just needs to hit it if he throws it.

This is true.

 

[gainesvol82]

They didn’t beat anyone this year. I don’t know why so many people ignore that. They have no marquee wins. Zero.

Wasn't Ole Miss a top 10 win at the time?

 

[drvenner]

Have you gone MAD

Never fear. I am not going to @Glitch this board. They be cleared.

 

[MarcoVol]

Feel like Michigan is about to go on a dominant run vs OSU

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

His arm opened up the run game even though he missed.

This is also true...it took the safeties completely out of run support.

I give you the 2022 Vols offense:

Points per game average: 47.3 (first nationally)

Touchdowns: 75 (first nationally)

Rushing touchdowns: 39 (first nationally)

Passing touchdowns: 35 (tied fifth nationally)

Passing yards: 3,988 (third nationally)

Rushing yards: 2,469 (19th nationally)

Total yards: 6,457 (first nationally)

Just an unreal season of offense. Never thought I would see this kind of production on Rocky Top.

 

[ViperVol86]

lol i was 3 the last time we won 10+ regular season games

I was 17 lol

The more I think about Bama being ranked above us the more I hate it. Not only did we beat them, we beat the other team that beat them, convincingly, at their place. On paper we are clearly better. I get that they only have two losses, both were close and in the final minutes, but you have to take on field results into account. Close doesn’t count.

 

[drvenner]

If we would have lost to usc the way Clemson did, we would probably be ahead of bama in the rankings.

Because we got our teeth kicked in, we probably won't.

It's not that hard to understand.

What is hard to understand about head to head?

South Carolina saved us from losing our minds when USC would’ve jumped us after championship weekend or really this weekend after they beat ND.

I would rather be losing my mind at 11-1 than I would be sitting here thinking what might have been, LOL.

 

[UTgrad2015]

I was 11 years old the last time we finished a season with 10 wins. I remember it, but it didn’t feel like it was that big of a deal.

This is a season I will never forget. Love this team. Let’s go win us a NY6.

 

[drvenner]

lol i was 3 the last time we won 10+ regular season games

I think @InVOLuntary and @BaldBiker might have actually been in double digits.

 

[BigSteve09]

Looks like auburn hit a snag with the Freeze hiring. I wonder if:
A) the SEC stepped in and said "no"
B) majority of fans or influential boosters raised enough hell

The committee knee jerked our loss at USCj. We should have never dropped past Bama in the first place. That should have been our floor.
