Did you miss the Bama game? One or two people were discussing the officiating after that game. Long story short: there are games that are fixed, there are games where the corruption is blatant, and then there was that game. A mystery penalty was called, or almost called, one down when we lined up first-and-goal in a formation that Ol' Nicky didn't recognize such that he had his paid-for crew blow the play dead - but then, somehow, no penalty was called. A Bama linebacker got away with a helmet-to-helmet hit on our quarterback that up to that point was lighting them up, and the hit was late to boot...no call. There were several more; perhaps you can find an informed fan to point them out for you.

So no, none of those teams are, "automatic losses."

Georgia and Ok have a lot of question marks. I would not count them as automatic losses( those days are over).

Georgia has a great defense and our offense has just as many questions surrounding it. Case in point look at last year and JG is coming back... Can this forum ever be realistic for once? No? Thought so

We are going to better and I do not believe JG will be the starter especially by the time the Ga game rolls around. Ga has questions with their offense. This is not a unrealistic opinion. GA is not an automatic loss now. If you do not like the opinions here for next year then maybe you should stay off VN. Your post leads me to believe you are a Dawgfan posting on VN.

10th in 247 composite :)

We’re actually 9th in 247. For some reason they make their own rankings hidden and obscure, choosing to promote the Composite. So we’re 8th in Rivals, 9th in 247, and 19th in ESPN (clearly the one that doesn’t belong) giving us a #10 composite.

You clearly have issues with reality. Vols offense is in far worse shape then ga. I've been a Vols fan all my life the fact is Vols have been **** most my life and I don't get caught up in hoping for something good. I can have an opposing opinion and if you don't like it maybe you should stay off VN.

This team has improved with play on the field (6 wins in a row) and a top 10 class in recruiting. It would be a mistake for a team like Georgia to assume Tn. Is an automatic win.

I think people dislike you just because you talk so much. And present your opinions as facts.

Can't remember where I saw this but the Super Bowl starters were made up of 9 Two stars, and 7 unranked players out of high school. Thats about double what I would have expected.

I believe it was about the same way when the Eagles and Patriots played especially with the OL.

Just because you don't like the ESPN ratings doesn't mean you can ignore it and use the better ratings as gospel. Sorry you couldn't figure that out and I had to spell it out for you

Also I forgot to mention of those 6 wins we played 2 bowl eligibility teams, and we barely won those games. Of those 6 wins we only destroyed one team out right (south Carolina) yet people seem to only look at that 6 win streak and forget how hard it was to win 5 of them. That's the part that we should of been focused on not the other way around. Try using logic instead of feelings, k.

A win is a win. Even the elite teams have lesser foes on their schedule.

Well John Whiskey Rock-a-Roller, I like her just fine and I'm by far a grammar Nazi, I just seem to always notice the then/than mistake, Its pretty common down her in the Everglades with the swamp people where they know no better.
