3 wins gets us to a Bowl game.

We need to keep the Vandy game on the schedule I believe if we can pull one out over a struggling Vandy team we will get a good Bowl invite.

Actually this rules allow a winless team go.

"If we can pull one out over a struggling Vandy" .... says it all.

Any bowl this team goes to this year would cost UT money to show up. I'm for forgetting going to a bowl this year and as mentioned previously, save the money for buy out next year.

It would be embarrassing to accept a Bowl Invitation with 3 wins.

As much as the extra practice might help, the embarrassment wouldn’t be worth it.
And, under this staff, has more practice really helped coach up and improve anyone?

Shoot for the moon and if you miss, you'll land amongst the stars.

I feel like if Josh Dobbs read this he'd have a scientific responsibility to reply....

Swell. Go to a bowl and get curb stomped.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

I dont see anymore wins.....after we get hammered by UF and ATM we will probably cancel the vandy game........lolz

Yep. Vandy's last game will be Sat vs. Jawja.

Stop.

Let Bailey run the rest of the way and get to a bowl for a 4th start and roll into 2021 with him starting out of the gate. I think our run game alone could destroy Vandy. Sadly, Pruitt should have turned to Bailey sooner, but I think to have any chance at keeping his job after 2021, he has to get Bailey precious playing time now instead of rolling into 2021 with no serious time.

I want to see how Bailey plays when he has a 0-0 scoreboard and 60 minutes. We can't really gauge him when he plays when game is already decided.

Bowls are really important for the team. $$$$ + practice time for HB

I'll happily take any bowl they want to invite TN to.

We would end up playing Penn State who would subsequently destroy TN. It's the TN way. It's just bad all around.

The program is already destroyed, keeping Pruitt just means we wait a year longer before we start trying to rebuild it. The issue isn’t what is beyond Pruitt’s control, it’s that he can’t improve the things that are within his control.

These are his players. When he signed as HC everyone wearing Orange became his players. Urban Meyer has talked about this situation multiple times. If CJP didn’t like their effort or attitude then he should have benched them or kicked them off the team.

If you look at the depth chart it’s almost all underclassmen. Many Sophomores that really needed fall and spring camps.

It’s like y’all forgot what kind of mess Pruitt inherited here.

 

[JohnWardForever]

Vandy will NOT play ut ; they would rather keep the vols from a bowl. And that's a GOOD Thing!

That's sort of like asking, "If there is air, will you breathe it?"

 

[vol1981]

i'd love the vandy game last and HB starting going in. win the game. go to a bowl and win with him starting and end on a good note going into next yr!

And I'd like $100,000,000

 

[vol1981]

Has anyone paid much attention to UT's practices?

 

[vols1071]

We should deny any bowl invitation if we say there is a standard to this University

 

[Tnphil]

Las Vegas Bowl was cancelled today which was a SEC vs PAC 12 match up. I'd say UT chances are dwindling if there is a chance.

 

[GAVol]

Thankfully the standard isn’t being obtuse and turning down what amounts to a Spring practice. Bowl game invites have been political since forever.

Honestly, I think it all ends up being conjecture anyway with all the games getting canceled.

 

[BeardedVol]

The program would lose money sending the team to a bottom-tier bowl.

If we are going to harp on about AD covid19 shortfalls, then losing money on a Bowl Game, just for some extra practices that don't seem to result in improvement, seems fiscally irresponsible.

 

[08Vol]

Please explain to us all how the mess in year 3 is worse than what Pittman has in year 1 at Arkansas. Explain how we didn’t have enough talent to not get blown out by Vandy in year 1 or GA State in year 2.

 

[OldVol]

Some of you guys really amuse me. You talk about wanting to win, wanting to see the team improve and then you scoff at the notion of going to a bowl with a poor record. Pull your heads out of your orifice for a minute and look at how utterly ridiculous that position is.

While other teams would be getting the equal to an extra spring practice, we're going to sit home and not go to a bowl, not get the extra 14 practices because of some warped sense of pride.

Damn glad none of you jokers are in a posititon to influence that decision.

Not taking a bowl bid would be the equivalent to cutting off your own dicks because your wife gained a few ugly pounds.

Yeah, it's been an ugly year but the extra practice can only help and anyone who can't see that is a fool of the bazer order.

If this vol team was bowling, they’d be lucky to knock down 3 pins
