Streaks against Al, Fl, GA

Yeah, I just can't feel good about this one. I wanted it more than playoffs. I grt tired of hearing about our programs ineptitude that has led to the 3 teams above having long win streaks and all-time winning records against Tennessee. Prior to the 2008-2020 BS, Tennessee had winning records all-time against Florida and Georgia.

This was our chance to end another embracing steak... now we will just hear about 9 straight.

It has been hard. Why did our program have to be such a garbage heap for so long?

It's worse than you imagine. We're 5-21 against UGA this century.

THEONLYTENISEE · 2025-09-14T08:21:53-0400

What’s the rest of the SEC teams record vs UGA and Alabama. There’s a reason those teams won multiple championships.

What about Florida? I think that is the worse one although Heupel has done well against them.

Greed and incompetence. Sports is a waste of time and money anymore. I've had 35 years of this and enough is enough time to find other things to do on Saturdays.

Not sure but I don't hear stuff like these teams have lost 9 straight or 16 straight, etc.

We should beat Florida and Alabama. Florida is awful and we should score at will against bama defense

Alabama is still good enough to beat Tennessee. We should beat Florida, but then again, we should have beat them in 2023 and laid an egg.

The only program that’s had sustained success against Kirby is Bama, and that’s probably going to end this year.

You would if you spent time on other teams message boards.

MurphyVol · 2025-09-14T08:27:52-0400

Since 2000, if my math is correct against our biggest rivals we are:

5-21 UGA

6-19 UF
7-18 Bama

Let's see which column we add to on the pending two games this year.

Florida will have mailed in the season by the time we go there. They could easily come into the game with 7 losses already.

If only there was something someone could do to not read other team's message boards.

Thanks. Crazy that our best record is against Alabama. Florida is the one that stands out. We should have beaten them in 2002, 2014, 2015, and 2023 IMO. 4 losses we left on the table.

People talk about it regularly, Tennessee just struggles against these teams.

ESPN was talking about it on Gameday! That isn't other people's message board.

I’d pump the brakes a bit on “should beat Alabama.”

It’s in Tuscaloosa and DeBoer, for all his faults, hasn’t lost at home yet since taking the job. We will not be favored. This is the first time in forever that I feel like going to Tuscaloosa isn’t an auto-loss, but it’ll still take an A game or near one to have a real shot at winning.

UGA has 2 wins against Bama since Saban took over, and one of those was in year 1. Florida also has 1 against Bama and it came in 2008.

So it's not just us.

Bama is gonna have to massively improve their defense. And Ty Simpson still seems mediocre, imo.

Ty Simpson went off on Wisconsin yesterday.

It stinks our rivals excelled when we were lost in the wilderness. But whether that hurts or is embarrassing is up to you. You are in charge of your emotions. Streaks will come our way again. They are cyclical...except for UK and UF. Those are inexplicable.

My only concern is that they fire Billy after the Ole Miss game, then an interim gets the team fired up to play to its maximum potential for the next game--us--and then they immediately come back down to earth again the next week vs FSU.

Instead of the backup QB beating us, it would be the backup head coach.

Wisconsin is not very good. And they started their backup QB who consistently gave Bama a short field.

Granted it’s Vandy, but last night they beat SC for the first time in 16 years.

Just a few years ago Kentucky beat Florida for the first time in 26 years.

All teams have losing streaks against opponents. Some just worse than others, and they stand out more when it is a team you are invested in.

Reminds me of when every person b****ed about Fulmer's record vs Florida but in reality he beat them more than literally anyone else did

What has CJH got to do with going back to 2000. Useless comparison
