[norriscraftbasser]

In the playoffs,soon!

So are we or are we not playing OSU? Is this a rumor or does it have some substance to it? Read the first few pages (3) and didn't see a definitive answer. Thanks to whoever can clear this up for me.

No, we are not going to play Ohio State.

Kiffin caused Urban a lot of stress in the fall of 2009. Accussed him of cheating and such. And therefore, Urban quit due to health reasons.

Keep dreaming.

Urban left because of Saban, if any coach. Kiffin left the year before Urban did.

I'd take Urban or Saban over any coach in my lifetime. I'm 39. They win. A lot.

I don't believe Urban left because of Kiffin. Someone else mentioned that theory and I was just attempting to answer the question.

I am a firm believer that Urban left due to the Florida fan base.

Just a rumor.

That's probably correct. Same reason Spurrier left.

They do sux....hard

Many would argue that Butch and UT are not exactly stiff competition for OSU and Meyer.

Maybe things will be different when//if these two programs actually meet.

I'd rather get them in a big bowl game and embarrass them, ruin their holiday, and ranking in one swoop.:thumbsup:

I'd rather have Tennessee play a weak out of conference schedule like they do in 2016. The SEC is tough enough.

If the East doesn't right the ship soon, we will need OOC games to prop up our SOS.

I thought urban left due to heat reasons(had to get out of the kitchen).

My bad, too much pressure.

That's probably correct. Same reason Spurrier left.

Didn't spurrier leave for the NFL?

 

[Iam4utalways]

Many usually equals mindless sheep that can't think their way out of a paper bag. I would fully expect if recruiting continues the way that it has that we could compete with anyone in the country by the time we were supposed to play the Buckeyes in a home and home.

I agree

09/04 - Georgia Tech (at Atlanta, GA)
09/23 - Indiana State
11/04 - UMass
TBA - Southern Miss

2018:

09/01 - West Virginia (at Charlotte, NC)
09/08 - ETSU
11/03 - Charlotte

2019:

09/07 - Georgia State

2020: TBA.

2021:

09/11 - Pittsburgh

2022:

2023, 2024, 2025: TBA.

2026:

2027:

I am very disappointed.

Is beating michigan that big of a deal, I don't think so, not yet at least.

 

[Iam4utalways]

Could be an interesting match up depending on who our coach is at the time. Butch will probably be gone after 2017

I hope not, maybe he will show out and win a NC for us before we run him off too.

Please do then... Go pull for Saban and Meyer! Tennessee won't miss you.

Thought we was playin WVU at Charlotte in 2018 dont see us playing them and ohio state out of conference

About as impressive as beating Iowa, but Butch paraded the trophy we got for that around the state like it was the holy grail.
