This is effing wild to watch. Bill hitched his wagon to an anchor. Wow

You know, I'm not sure it was Bill's decision. Those relationships at that level are usually arranged. I think Hudson is his handler. If she was his handler, that's exactly how I would expect them to interact.

Duke is a good pick. I think they're underrated vs overrated GT. Duke QB is every bit as good as Haynes.

Well I guess I have to cash this one out as well as my ND pick if you like them😂😂

On a serious note, this Duke game smells very similar to the Cincy/Iowa St game a couple weeks ago when everybody was on the tanked road dog vs the unranked home favorite

You could make a lot of money betting against me.

Some people sell their picks for others to follow, I go against the grain.

AND LOTS of other things. We can't reproduce Roman concrete. Or whatever the heck Göbeklitepe is made of. It's a composite stone. The casing stones of the Pyramids are composite stone we can't reproduce! I mean, they made a composite stone that resembles limestone so much that it fooled "experts" for centuries! In Search of Concrete Evidence

Saw a vol on Facebook say "Tennessee Alabama is not really a hate rivalry like Alabama Auburn. Tennessee Alabama is based on tradition. The colors of the fall. That's it. Go Vols!"

Facebook is a special place...

Somebody on the FF pointed out that if you only account for SEC games, Tennessee's pass defense is middle of the pack in the SEC, sitting at 9th with 246 yards per game. Not great but the numbers definitely don't support the "WORST DEFENSE IN THE SEC" argument.

We threw a lot of young guys out there when the games were out of reach and forced teams to have to pass, thus pumping up the opponents passing game numbers. Yeah I wish Heupel had more of his killer instinct from 2022, and the deep zone on 3rd down is exhausting, but we're on pace to repeat last year with a better offense after replacing 9 starters, so I feel pretty great about this "rebuilding year."

I'm grateful that the way our offense executes and the way we usually game plan on defense, there will always be plenty of passing yardage given up giving those who always look for things to complain about even after wins a perceived reason to complain.

Teams are chasing us in games and they are usually having to throw to keep up.
