Exactly. Bama is going to be very challenging and Florida too. Then there's OKie. Need to get 2 of 3 . The way Ty Simpson is playing,. Bama is looking like a playoff contender. Worry about winning games, the ranking will take care of itself.

People are really crying and moaning about possibly getting screwed in a poll that has zero weight on the CFP Rankings but has voters who vote with this kind of logic and thinking:

WTH qualifies her to vote anyways? Like some AP voters in the past didn't even rank UT in their top 25 when they were ranked in the top 12 in the Coaches Poll.

Am I the only one who really isn't surprised by this? Penn State is the classic bully program, beating up on bad or lesser teams that can't, or don't, fight back, and they finally ran into a bottom feeder that punched them in the mouth. The result isn't shocking at all.

Now we'll see what the biased fools who vote on these polls will do with Penn State. By rights, with wins over FCS teams and losses in their only FBS games, they shouldn't sniff the top 25, but because of the inane "preseason" rankings that had them at #3 based on the return of a QB that has yet to beat a good team in his career, they'll likely still be in the mid teens.

And these polls have zero to do with us getting into the playoffs. We have a rankings system set by the committee. The AP and Coaches polls have no weight.

You are correct and wrong. Yes, the committee ranking is all that matters for the playoffs. However, the committee ranking won’t be radically different than the AP and coaches poll by the time the committee rankings hit. I find it difficult to believe that the committee isn’t influenced to some degree by the AP polling at that point in the season. You can believe that or not.

I can assure those cowering that “we are gonna get screwed if we don’t move up the rankings this week” in a poll that has no weight on the playoff standings that are still 4 weeks away from starting are morons and clowns.

Choose to be overdramatic and paranoid if yall wish.

But worrying over a meaningless poll that has voters ranking teams like a game and on “vibes” is a weird choice.

Go Vols!

It had to happen one week that one of these bad teams that fill their schedule would finally punch overrated Penn State in the mouth , and UCLA and Nico were the ones. Wouldn't be shocked if they lose again before the Ohio State game.

We need to send Nico a thank you note, this puts Penn States playoff hopes on life-support, not impossible but highly unlikely, helps Vol chances. Now we just have to win. GBO!!!
