I don't think UNC would agree to this. They had a poor turnout in Nashville and Nashville is not very close to Chapel Hill. It's about 8 hours from the Triangle.

Also, I wouldn't want to lose to UNC again, it would be bad for recruiting NC in the future and our fanbase would be irate if we lost to them in Nashville 2 years in a row. Much rather play Miami or Wake.

I'm from Chapel Hill, I honestly can't take another loss to UNC right now, last year was absolutely terrible the way the game ended.

Feel your pain. Lived near there for a while, and I hate UNC.

Also, UVA is losing their last 2 games, so they could very likely be a bowl opponent at 7-5. If we make a bowl, and it's a HUGE if, then UVA, Wake and Miami will probably be the top 3 choices. UVA is Dooley's alma mater, so he and our atheltic department may push for it. London vs. Dooley would be a fun coaching matchup to watch. Two young coaches.

UVA, Miami and UNCheat would all three kill us!! Would rather play Wake Forest or some Big East team.

You clearly didn't watch any of the Arkansas game or any of the second halves in October if you think this team is giving 100% for 60 minutes every time they take the field.

Clearly.

If we don't give 100% for 60 minutes on Saturday this whole coversation is pointless. If we get bowl eligible its because we do that the next two weeks, at which point we will have "efforted" our way into a bowl game. Oh, and gotten 6 wins, which is all that really matters. Effort is otherwise not a part of the bowl eligibility equation.

Right now, CBSSports has us projected to play Wake Forest in the Music City Bowl. They don't have Vandy slated to play in a bowl at all. If we win out, and Vandy beats Wake Forest in their last game of the season, UNC would likely jump Wake in the ACC standings, which would theoretically match them up with us in the Music City Bowl again.

Would the directors of the Music City Bowl favor this match up if it worked out this way, or do you think they would go in a different direction? How much discretion do they have when it comes to who will play in their bowl?

Wow!!! Hamilton took UNC off of our schedule for this season, yet we very well may play them anyway. Is that ironic or what?????

If Tennessee in fact winds up in the Music City Bowl I hope they play Virginia. Miami might have too much speed for UT.

Wake is a pretty solid team. We'd have our hands full, but let's be real here....UT has a lot of work to do just to be bowl eligible. I'm not the least bit concerned about any projection...just Vandy. We'll have to play a tremendous game to win Saturday. Lose that game and all hell breaks loose among the Vol faithful.

terry joseph, double h and of course jim chaney.

Lol. Yeah, canning Joseph would do wonders for us. You're a trip dowell, and you might still be tripping.

Not many guys can recruit like he does and coach two positions. Maybe they should do some shuffling on D, lighten his load to just the cornerbacks, but firing him would be a disaster.

Not even interested in seeing what our line can do as juniors either?

Our offense was one of the best in the country in September, regardless of the competition. Do we need a better running back? Yeah. A brand new offense for the fifth time in 6 years? No. Think about it, cutcliffe in 07, clawsen in 08, kiffin calling the shots over Chaney in 09, Chaney in 10-11 and ready to move on again in 2012? Killin me.

HH, maybe, but I think it's too soon.

Either get some simblance of patience or a life and check back in a year.

Maybe it's just me, but at this point, I don't think this team has exerted enough effort to deserve a bowl ...

They won't base it on what you think so just have fun with the post.

We had a great time last year! We'd definitely go back!
