Vols #9 in AP Poll

Probably making something out of nothing here, but does it seem like they shrunk UT's Power T logo to a smaller scale than the other teams' logos?

5-0 and back to where we started. What a sham!

We've beaten two teams in the bottom half of the top 25 and had troubles with two teams that are nowhere near the top 25. We are ranked appropriately and it really doesn't mean jack as long as we go out and take care of our business.

Really nothing to complain about. Tennessee is about where they belong.

Florida barely survives Vandy but goes up four spots in the polls

That makes perfect sense.

Polls are garbage.
I agree total garbage. I think Louisville is good but fall just 4 spots for loss and we fall 8 spots for a win. Yeah we looked like crap vs Appy St but we won. We have looked like crap all season but we win and that's what should count.

Its true, W's and L's are what counts.

I wouldn't mind Florida going up in the polls after winning to Vandy if only there was consistency. But there isn't. We drop 8 points after a win but Florida goes up.

Lunacy

Agreed. For those of you that think we should be moving into top 5 range, we certainly will with wins over Texas A&M and Alabama. I really believe Tennessee is about the 15th best team in the country and will play well but go 1-1 or 0-2 in the next two, dropping down to that range. I hope they prove me wrong of course.

How is Ole Miss in thew top 20 with 2 losses? I'll bet if we lose 2 you will need the Hubble to see our rank.

A lot of ranked teams lost to unranked teams yesterday, particularly in the back half of the Top 25, so Florida might have just moved up by default. They certainly didn't deserve to. We want them to look good but we also need them to lose another SEC matchup in case God forbid we go 0-2 next two games we will still be in control of the East. They have LSU, Arkansas, and Georgia left on the schedule so I like our chances.

Based on this weeks poll, the Vols are the only team in the nation with wins over 3 teams that have been ranked in the AP top 25 this year either at the time the game was played or afterwards.

Tennessee has won back to back games against top 25 teams. No other team in the country has done this in 2016.

Keep winning and it fixes itself but this is a joke.

Go Vols!

Does it make sense that Ole Miss is 9 spots ahead of Florida St? They have the same record but Florida St won the head to head match up.
