    So what bowl games are we looking at now?

    I would think TN would have an advantage over GA if the two had similar records. Big difference between a team coming up and a team having a down year - at least as far as enthusiasm and fan travel.

    Every team has a bad day.....this is ours

    As an independent observer, I think the OP is correct. Every team has a down game - especially one that is dealing with the off-the-field stuff. Y'all went into a hostile environment, with distractions, coming off a couple of big home games. It was somewhat of a perfect storm. Your school is...

    Texas jumps Alabama/Coaches poll (merged)

    Yeah, the Top 3 will work it's way out so it really doesn't matter whom is better between Florida, Bama and Texas. As a Texas guy, I agree with much of what has been said in this thread on both sides. We can't run the ball well. We also have average o-line protection of the QB. On the other...

    Congrats "other" UT

    Estelle Getty was established before Jessica Alba. Congrats. BTW, I was more pissed at the end of the Bama game than all the Vols I watched the game with. I really wanted to see Saban get beat, at home, by Kiffin. That would have been really fun to watch.

    Congrats "other" UT

    Just kidding. 1) I know my user name is extremely outdated. I signed up in '05 after Texas beat USC in the Rose Bowl. 2) I very rarely post; however, I visit this board on a daily basis. I live in Knoxville, am married to a Vol and 95% of my friends are Vols. 3) That being said, I just...

    Great weekend for college football

    Well, as a Longhorn, I am certainly nervous about the game tomorrow. I've actually got OU winning. Yeah, I know, way to step out on a limb. This weekend has always been set up as a traditionally fun weekend for my wife, friends and me. My wife and friends are all UT-Knoxville alums. I went...

    UT vs Bama

    That's cute. Maybe you're avoiding the Iowa State game because you'll probably lose. That being said, I echo the sentiments of the Vol posters re: Litton's, Calhoun's and, especially, Nama. God I love that place. And the owner is extremelly friendly. Walking up and down the river pre-game...

    Sorry about all the "y'alls."

    Outplayed,outcoached,outhustled, over ranked

    That game was nowhere near an indication of the strengths of either team. Y'all had the late game against a very physical team last night and were clearly tired. Combine that with Texas actually shooting well and you can see how the game could have gotten away. It also helps TX that Pearl is...

    The Real UT

    Awesome. The dead-beat dad, pothead who's about to get suspended and lose his starting job to someone from the "other UT" talked smack. At least this "Real UT" grad hasn't killed anybody (Leonard Little, Dwayne Goodrich), served prison time for a drug deal (Jamal Lewis), or gotten suspended...

    #4 Texas 21 Arkansas State 13 on 9/1/07

    after living in Texas and hearing all the talk about them being the real "UT" I will never feel sorry for them That's funny. That's what I hear all the time in Knoxville, just the other way around. Consider Texas the TN of 2000. We're over a year removed from our National Championship...

    ASU Message board

    Yeah. ASU definitely gave us all we wanted. And to the two ASU fans on here...Sorry the stupid-assed refs had to blow the onside kick call. That was bush-league. I think I can speak for many Texas fans by saying that we were thouroughly impressed by your team. As for the TN v. ASU...

    Oden NBA Lottery Pick --- Yea Right

    I know I'm a tad biased but... Durant is far superior to Oden. The broadcaster from today's game said that this is the first time Oden had EVER played someone taller than him. In the NBA, he'll face that each week. When Oden is out, Ohio St. still seems to be a badass team. When Durant...

    NCAA status of SECE teams

    I think the Vols win at least 5. The SEC Tourney is looking really important at this point. As is the Georgia game. I do think the Vols beat Georgia, though. I think the danger for TN is not how they fare against the rest of the country as far as record and RPI. What would scare me is how...

    Is Anyone Else Tired Of Losing The Same Way

    Play well in the first half, lead at halftime only to come out in the second half and lay a complete egg. As a Texas alumnus....:shakehead: Why couldn't y'all have laid an egg in the 2nd half of that game....
