Tennessee football maintaining momentum with tight spring schedule

[CountVolcula]

"Tennessee looks to build off back-to-back 9-4 seasons that have made the Vols the third-winningest program in the SEC in that span behind defending division champions Alabama and Florida."

Whats the SEC record in that span?

 

[CountVolcula]

To surmise: 2 of the 3 best records in the SEC reside in the east with #3 sporting an 0 for 13 vs the west.

That dont take into account that a mass majority of Butchs wins are against teams from outside the conference and teams outside the Top 25.

But they need something to hold onto

You're not doing this correctly. That's not how we spin things around here.

Boy this will be fun... Now time to watch the negavols go to town attacking that quote.

I really do believe Hurd disrupted the locker room and if we would've gotten rid of him, early in the season, & inserted JK into the starting rotation, we would have won at least 11 games. Hurd & Pdub both in the locker room caused major problems with our team chemistry, IMO.

Actually we are tied with UGA for the third most wins with an 18-8 record over the past two years.

 

[FEARinSEC]

3rd?

Not good enough

Second loser....

 

[TMvol10]

Wow Butch. Need a tutu to go with that spin?

Butch didn't make this statement. The author of the article did. Sorry.

The same UGA that we beat both years - tiebreaker

 

[VolFootballIsLife]

This stat is perfect...really sums up everything on VolNation the last 2 years bc it proves both sides are correct.

1) Proves CBJ deserves to be HBC - #3 in SEC not too shabby
2) Shows we've underachieved as we've been more talented than UF over the last 3 years.

Game.Set.Match. Now let's move on.

 

[sjt18]

Whoohoo that's a great stat. Take that negas.

:dance2: Yea!!!!! Another way to revel in Tennessee NOT winning a division or conference title.

 

[VolDaddy61]

Is it too early to get excited about the upcoming season ?! I'm a die hard Cubs fan, so I'm an eternal optimist, y'all are going to have to forgive me ☺ GBO !!

There's a lot of teams that hold that distinction. Stop being so negative Countnegavol

In before negas say wins against Vandy shouldn't count, but losses to Vandy should count. Or was I too late?

I almost completely agree with u, except for the Arkansas game. Yes, we had a 17 point lead, but they physically dominated us from late in the 1st quarter until the game was over.

They did get dominated but mainly because they were not motivated. Absolutely no spark or fire in that game. In a sense, the Florida game cost us the Arky game too.

Hashtag# VandyGamesMatter! lol

 

[KBVol]

What's the "great stat"? That we've finished behind Florida each of the last two years when we clearly should've won the East division? Jeez, do we have no standards and expectations anymore? I know, I know....Dooley was our coach 5 years ago.

Right, he's only beaten little weenie teams like Georgia, Nebraska, Florida, and Spurrier's. F them.

I'm sorry that happened.

I think it is fact and it was the reporter that said it not Butch.

Second loser....

And some are giddy about it.

But we have beat them head to head so tie breaker goes to the Vols

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Don't you just love being "behind" Bama and Florida?!

We beat Florida, yes we should have taken care of business aginst USC and Vandy, but mentioning Alabama in that sentence??

128 FBS schools. Clemson #1 and Alabama #2. That leaves 126 other schools behind Bama, not just Tennessee.
