Bowl Projections by Experts

[Sudden Impact]

Them winning does not help Tennessees recruiting, Alabama has been winning the last 13 yrs, Georgia the last 7years and that hadn’t done crap for our recruiting. All it does is help Their Recruiting

Seriously, they have been winning for years. They are going to get the pick of the top recruits for years. Look at GA's recruiting, they got their clocked cleaned last night with a better experienced group. It is Coaching, period. Winning at a high level will cure it all. We are not there, yet and have not been there in a while. You can try to out talent somebody but without coaching at all levels you are looking at mediocre seasons in the SEC. GA got there a$$ handed to them not because of a lack of talent but because of a lack of Coaching and planning. I will take a couple 15 rated classes with CJH and staff over Alabama. Look at ToTo and how he has a supporting cast to play. We didn't have that at Tennessee. His success is due to coaching and better players not all 5 * watching his back. It's a team sport, Satan and Staff does a good job teaching it. We got a chance to build a team that can play. Shore up the Defense and we will get to the upper tier of the SEC. Time will tell and this recruiting class will be a building block. Another Example, is CBJ could recruit but could not coach. I would say starting with Kiffin,to Pruitt that we have not had a HFC until now.

Build the Program and they will Come.

Wait... What? It's all about coaching, so you'll take UT against the GOAT with less talent?

 

[Sea Ray]

Alabama and Georgia both in the playoffs . That blows.

That opens up better Bowls for the rest of the conference and it also is good for the prestige of the conference

 

[Sea Ray]

Latest ESPN+ projections:

Music City vs Penn St
Music City vs Purdue

I'd much rather play Purdue or Minny

That day is coming.......time and patience my friend.

I would rather play a team in the areas we recruit that is in the top 25 and that will draw an interest or reason to watch.

Hope you're right.

Don’t care about conference GOVOLS!!! Don’t drink the Conference koolaid.

 

[onevol74]

Don’t want the Music City at all, but I’ll take it. I’d rather go to the Gator.

I just do not see Nashville and the cold weather as a bowl destination. Would only watch on TV.

Make no mistake, I wanted both bama and Georgia to make the playoff, so we could make a better bowl. Now I’m hoping for a Michigan and Cincinnati title game.
GBO!!

I’m an hour south of Nashville in southern middle Tennessee and still don’t want it.

You wouldn't want Penn State?

Penn State in Nashville would be perfect!

 

[TheFlash1971]

Purdue would be a shoot out.
Minnesota and PSU would be 24-20 style games. Both have good defenses.

[NeverWe'llSever]

Who do we have to bribe to get into the Gator?

 

[acd4476]

Why not Purdue?

They'll throw for 500 on this secondary. Id much prefer penn state. Purdue defense is awful but they'll put up points

 

[508mikey]

Who do we have to bribe to get into the Gator?

The local politician

 

[OrangeDog]

You wouldn't want Penn State?

Penn State in Nashville would be perfect!

All (12-20) of Vandy fans would come to boo Franklin...
