They lost to the number #1 ranked team in the country, and have beaten a ranked team.

We lost to number #3 and beat two unranked bottom-tier SEC teams.

How is it again that we are better?

Yea Louisville wouldn't beat USCjr nor Mizzou and are 1-3. Wouldn't put too much weight into Miami beating them. Nonetheless, we both (UT and UM) got our behinds whooped by better teams.

On to Kentucky.

The eye test tells me all I need to know at this point in the year, but things always change as the season goes, almost always. Some teams get better some get worse. Miami probably wouldn't score on Georgia right now. Georgia totally dominated a top 10 auburn at the time, they whipped auburn much more easily than they did us. They whipped auburn all 4 quarters hands down. Both are wins while against middle of the pack sec teams looks a little better today, south carolina was in it with florida until late and waxed vandy and Missouri who we soundly whipped racked up 586 yards on LSU and held them 4 times inside the 1 to seal the victory. I know LSU lost alot, but they are the defending champs and have had top 3-4 recruiting classes the last 4 years. It's perplexing how sick they look on defense. Georgia and Bama are clearly the top 2 teams in the sec right now, who is 3rd best on so one is still very unclear. A@M,Florida,Tenn,and Auburn will have to sort that out. I do think Arkansas has shown much improvement from last year and Auburn is lucky to have won saturday. Lots of football left to be played to figure it all out. GBO!!!!!

Eye test. They are not as good as Tennessee, probably about Kentucky level.

IMO we did outplay the No. 3 ranked team in the country for to 2 quarters. Now the other 2 quarters were forgettable but we definitely punched them in the mouth that 1st half.

I think CJP is better than Dooley but competing for one half just doesn’t cut it at UT.

I’m not saying that playing for one half cuts it but you can start to see the overall improvement on this team from Year 1 and I think other people can see it too. We’re not the same pushover we’ve been for most of the past decade. The defense plays with an edge that we haven’t seen in awhile. We just need the offense to step up and match their intensity. However, that’s probably not going to happen until a true leader is behind center.

Bryce Thompson came in with a haymaker in the 3rd quarter and missed....thank goodness. Still surprised it didn't get called.

The ACC teams are getting ranked higher than they should because Clemson has no out of conference schedule to point to, and the All Cupcake Conference schedule needs help to boost Clemson's image for the playoff.

JMO IMHO FWIW LOL ROFL BFF BBQ
