Best wins:
UT - 10-2 Bama, 9-3 LSU, 8-4 Pitt

Uga - 10-2 UT, 9-3 Oregon
Michigan - 11-1 OSU, 10-2 Penn St
TCU - 9-3 KState, 8-4 Texas
USC - 9-3 Oregon St, 9-3 UCLA

Bama - 8-4 Texas, 8-4 Ole Miss
OSU - 10-2 Penn St, 8-4 ND

Our 3rd best win is better than some other’s top 2. UT is the best 10-2 team out there with the best wins and playing the toughest schedule. We can’t make a case over the unbeatens, or 1-loss USC. But if TCU and USC loses next week, we have the best resume to make some noise on the UT, Bama and OSU CFP debate.

I think people have to come to grips either fact UGA's demolition of USCe is now a very quality win.

Im going to prefer to dwell on the fact I was in Neyland for the Dixieland Delight. A night I’ll talk about with my grandkids over and over again.

That was my fave! @drylo on fire

And as I mentioned earlier, everybody re-watch Tyre's block on the first TD!

What would really shake things up is if TCU gets blown out by Kansas State and USC loses the PAC-12 championship game.

Wouldn’t matter. Just how it doesn’t matter how OSU lost. Those teams would still only have one loss and get in over two loss teams.

Sadly I think UGA is in a class all its own this year.

Best D ive seen. The Cocks D was strong night we played them. Really good tackling.

USC is a much different team now than then. They finally decided to let rattler sling the ball 40 plus times. They were a running team before us and Clemson. They probably figured what do we have to lose and it worked well for them. They should have done it all year.

Well, another season has come and gone. Seems like we were just counting down days til the first kickoff.

One of the best seasons I've ever seen as a Vol fan and I'm thankful I got to see it with you clowns.

10-2
Year 2 Vols

 

[Revived2002]

They should have done it all year.

If I’m a fan of that program I’m wondering why it took so long to figure that out.

This is what I think happens too.

The USCe game it's a big old black eye that ain't going nowhere.

 

[jakez4ut]

It's LSU's loss last night worse than ours last week? I think so. Yes

 

[Vols4us]

Bama didn’t just lose to us, they lost to LSU who we beat the crap out of. We also just posted a shutout of Vandy who was coming off of wins against Kentucky and Florida.

That argument is so lazy that they use. LSU just got beat badly by aTm, their third loss. aTm has been like Vandy this season. LSU was nearly beaten by 6-6 Arky the week before. Yet, they beat Bama. Yet, we destroyed LSU in Baton Rouge and beat Bama. Yet, our only other loss other than USCe is to the #1 seed at their house in the rain who won it all last season, which neither Bama or LSU has to play in the regular season. The USCe loss is now a whole lot more reasonable after yesterday, especially without Jeremy Banks playing.

So sick of the anti-Tennessee bias. Which is why our guys have got to learn to stay on task, follow the team rules and quit chirping. Earn the right to trash talk after you win each game. Our coaches had to learn to play aggressive every single play, right DC Banks?

We are set up to dominate the entire CFB world from this season on if we do things right.

At least USC will be in the top 20 (should be top 15 really) and we didn't lose to them

 

[Weezer]

Tell me again who Ohio State beat this year? Try to do so without laughing.

Tell me again who Bama has beat that should put them above Ohio State? If a two-loss team makes it, it will be Bama. The committee already has them ahead of us despite our head-to-head win. So we won't jump them. Ohio State is more deserving than Bama. But as long as USC and TCU take care of business next weekend, this shouldn't even be a debate.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

It’s just hit me that the regular season is over.

At least we have Vols basketball now..they’re killing it!!

 

[drvenner]

Everyone saying "I'd love to get x or y team" must not have seen Milton look pretty rough tonight. We are going to struggle against just about any decent team in the bowl.

Not a given. We will have a lot of time to prepare and one game is still not enough to pass judgment on Milton. You all are still looking at last year's Milton and thinking he has not changed and I think he clearly has.

 

[Weezer]

With Carolina picking up that win over Clemson, that gives them 2 wins over top 10 teams and should shoot them up the polls. A loss to them should be less impactful and should leap frog us back over Bama. We will see how they decide to rank it.

We SHOULD be ahead of Bama. Our record totally supports that. But I don't believe the committee will jump us over Bama.

 

[drvenner]

Bama didn’t just lose to us, they lost to LSU who we beat the crap out of. We also just posted a shutout of Vandy who was coming off of wins against Kentucky and Florida.

Head to head should be the one and only factor if they have the same record. It is not that hard, but the committee will make it way more complicated than that.

 

[SugarCC]

If TCU and USC lose...

Whenever Bama gets in, those of you who will be out of your minds with shock and disbelief...just know, you've done it to yourselves. Listen to me now...prepare yourself now, so you wont be so shocked and overwhelmed with disbelief. It WILL happen. Yes, it will suck and shouldn't be so and should cause outrage; but...again...it WILL happen. They are going to do EVERYTHING they possibly can to get them in...especially over us; and, every one of you know it.

Again, prepare yourselves now; and, just maybe, it won't be as unbearable. Well, it will be...but, you know what I'm saying.

 

[NMVol]

That was my fave! @drylo on fire

And as I mentioned earlier, watch Tyre's block on the first TD!

He knocked that guy 5 yards back in the air.

 

[Weezer]

Bama will be ranked ahead of UT. Bamas losses are better than UT's losses. That SC game killed any hope of the CFP for UT. I'm sure Hooker being out has some effect on our ranking as well. I don't think it matters to the committee about SOS as much as what have you done for me lately.

They will be, but they absolutely shouldn't be. They get the nod from the committee on name alone, not accomplishment. And recency bias is dumb. The whole season should matter.

 

[engineerVOL]

It’s just hit me that the regular season is over.

to Hendo and gang on a great and memorable season.

 

[WesTnVol]

Joe is a great friend and an amazing teammate but I’m still doubtful on his QB abilities.
Im sure last nights game plan was Joe doesn’t run the ball. Hopefully they ease up on that for the bowl game.
His deep pass are hit or miss, miss, miss, miss and almost hit!!!
If during bowl prep or the off season CJH can fix this, then build and place his statue beside the General immediately.
I have never wanted to be so wrong about something in my life but I fear Joe Milton is a one trick pony
Hopefully I have to eat a huge bowl of crow next season when we win the SEC with Joe as QB1
