Most Overrated Vol

Because none of our Tennessee teams in those 43 years prior weren't good enough to win an NC, with the exception of the 67 team(who won a Litkenhous NC), and maybe the 85 SugarVols.

Fulmer would have difficulty coaching the Super Bowl champions to a college national championship. And I highly doubt we didn't have a team in there good enough to win an NC at some point. If the '06 Gators could win one with all their deficiencies, some of those Vols teams were also capable.

So, basically, what you're argument boils down to, is using a hypothetical thought to bolster your argument.
And you think my reason is stupid? C'mon now, you gotta bring something better than that to the table.

Bold: Now, when did Peyton have to usually win the game for us? Florida, and the 1998 Orange Bowl. Did he? No.
And this is a pure college argument. Yes, Peyton did really big things in the NFL, and Tee, well, didn't.

In 1997 the defense through 12 games gave up 244 points avg. of 20.3 pts a game.

In 1998 the defense through 13 games gave up 189 points avg. of 14.5 pts a game.

That is 55 less points in 98 then 97 with an extra game. Don't hand me your petty crap about W's or L's is up to the QB. If we win it was the QB if we lose it was the QB and that made Tee a better QB? you need to put the crack pipe down.

Defense wins NC's, Fulmer made mention numerous times during the 98 season that all they ask of Tee is play conservative and let the defense win the game.
