Leaving the SEC

[TNnative]

Same level of dumbassery from some fans at Neyland last night lol. You guys are truly internet treasures.

You have a very twisted definition of treasures. Personally, I think many of them are why our grass is so green.

That's blasphemy.

I'm old - a third of my life was pre-internet. There was a blissful unawareness of how many unhinged people there were out there.

what's the benefit of remaining in a conference that is actively rooting for the team to fail and keep us in remaining in the basement? The real reason they are angry at the fans, is because we are start to see this garbage for what it really is. Last night was a home cook SEC screw job against the Vols.

We are in the SEC basement because of terrible Tennessee decisions, not because anyone put us there. We did not need help, it was an easy fall for a school with inept leadership.

It’s just a question my dude

But why would you ask it?

Absolutely false premise. Every loss isn't "rigged" and there is no anti-UT conspiracy in the conference.

The scoop and score was, without question in my mind, a poor call. Ole Miss was ready to unload a deep ball on a trick play. There was no whistle to hear because none of the refs blew the play dead. The claims of ref or conference bias are just garbage. Very poor officiating does not mean an anti-UT conspiracy is in play. To the contrary, the entire conference will benefit and be better when (not if) UT gets its act together and resurfaces where it belongs, as a football power.

I am really worried for our society that trite internet clichés and "branding" are replacing critical thinking in this country. Go Vols!
