If posters on this board were offered the money Paul makes…. 3/4 of this board would be on radio/tv saying rawl tide and talking to Barb…. We have already seen several posters admit to betting against the Vols so they “win” either way… I would NEVER.

How are we not supposed to think the media is biased against us? That’s crazy.

“Hyatt beats Harrison in every statistical category, but we just think Harrison is the more complete receiver”

That their justification in a nutshell. What a load of crap.

That’s just 1 dude who wrote that article.

Just like some ppl think Bama should be ahead of UT and some others said UT got screwed. Not everyone is gonna agree with this guy.

I don’t think it’s a conscious bias AGAINST us, I think it’s a bias FOR the big name programs, which we are not at present. Gotta go out there and leave no room for debate to change the narrative.

Something I just thought of is if The SEC didn't have divisions we would still have a path to the playoff.

People say no divisions are good for the PAC 12 and Big 12, but why is no one mentioning it in the SEC? Bama.

They’ll be gone soon enough, thankfully.

I would love to see Dobbs in TV media somewhere. We need the representation.

That’s what we need…. We don’t have any former Vols in media that are homers…. Peyton is when he talks about us but he doesn’t have a regular platform to talk college sports.

Yes we are victims. Always. And in all ways. Everything is a conspiracy against Vols. We are victims. Hear our cries and whimpers.

Why are you always being like this? Can’t decide if you are a troll or just like pushing buttons and arguing with everyone. If you can’t see clear bias in some of these polls and awards then I don’t know what to tell you.

We are the only team in college football that would get trashed on every sports show in America for padding stats.

Yep, Missouri game we got backups in just running the offense and ESPN/SEC and everyone was talking about it.

Mind you the Missouri vs TN game was close into the 3rd quarter. Missouri got it to 28-24 and then we blew the doors open. But Milton with backups played the majority of the 4th quarter. Final was 66-24 (42 point win)

Early in the day though...Indiana vs Ohio State game wasn't close... 21-7 after the first quarter and Indiana didn't score again until the 4th quarter. CJ Stroud though throws 3 of his TDs in the 3rd/4th quarter. His last pass was as time expired to throw a TD. Final was 56-14 (42 point win) and crickets from the media.

That didn’t happen. It’s all in your head.

Hall of Famer Perry, spitball master, dies at 84

At a Major League Baseball Alumni Golf Tournament, I asked him to sign a jar of Vaseline..............That did not go over well.:oops:
I then asked him to sign a card, and he looked at me like I had three heads.

When he handed me his team's scorecard, I quickly said, "Mr. Perry. I need a signature to verify the scoring." So I got the autograph!;)

No worries…all fan bases are victims. The whining and excuse making around here for OU’s 6-6 season is fantastic. Apparently the Big12 had it in for them and Texas and that is why they both sucked this year.

Wow. Kentucky fans saying that injuries caught up with him and he just couldn't get consistent play/snaps.

Kentucky down to 3 scholarship RBs on their roster

Lost their top 2 right? Rodriguez is gone too?

They never were a threat, but they're definitely not now. I almost feel bad for uk. USC on the other hand, I want them to die a slow horrible death for the next century.

Tennessee: Nicholaus Iamaleava, QB
2023 ESPN 300 ranking: 32
Iamaleava is a 6-foot-6, 195-pound quarterback from Downey, California, and is ranked as the No. 6 pocket-passer in the country. He is the highest-ranked commit in the class and followed his 2,244-yard, 33-touchdown junior season with 1,986 passing yards and 25 touchdowns as a senior.
Both Hendon Hooker and Joe Milton III are seniors and coach Josh Heupel will need a new quarterback. The staff have sophomores Gaston Moore and Navy Shuler, as well as freshman Tayven Jackson, but none have a significant amount of experience.
Given the lack of depth, Iamaleava should have an opportunity to come in and compete right away.


ESPN doesn't know that Milton is returning? Holy crap!
