I've seen this mentioned before but where does it say anything about this being the "Tennessee Sports Forum"?Serious question: If that's the case why come to a Tennessee sports forum?
I'm right there with you because they've crushed my hopes and dreams way too many times. I like how they're playing and yesterdays game was the most complete they've put together this year but until they beat bama I can't pick them. It was the same way with Florida. Bama has shown they're beatable as all teams are so maybe the stars will align just right.until they prove to me they can beat alabama, everything else isn't worthy of consideration. I hate to not be as optimistic as everyone else. I'm just a realist and have to see the proof.
I see you edited out the rest of my post where I clearly addressed that point. Word games aside, it's a serious question. You say Tennessee fans drive you crazy, yet you come to a forum on a Tennessee board knowing the vast majority of people are Tennessee fans. I have no interest in going to a forum full of Kentucky fans and pounding my chest telling them how great Tennessee is, how we've beat them 36 out of the last 40 years, how many days it's been since the last win, etc. I'm genuinely curious what makes grown men (I'm assuming) that are alabama fans want to hang out on a majority Tennessee sports board if the fans drive them crazy. Does it deliver some sense of superiority? Are there really no alabama sports forums? I've never looked, but I'm assuming there are.I've seen this mentioned before but where does it say anything about this being the "Tennessee Sports Forum"?
Like Chris said, BVS is real!I'm right there with you because they've crushed my hopes and dreams way too many times.

I'm not capable of looking that far ahead. I don't care how good Tennessee is (I am not sold on the defense yet, so I don't think they are as good as everyone thinks) and how "bad" alabama is (if Young plays Saturday they will look like Tom Brady's New England Patriot championship teams), until they prove to me they can beat alabama, everything else isn't worthy of consideration. I hate to not be as optimistic as everyone else. I'm just a realist and have to see the proof.
Well said and agreeI'm not capable of looking that far ahead.

Quit getting so emotional and being such a statesogynist bigot.()I see you edited out the rest of my post where I clearly addressed that point. Word games aside, it's a serious question.

That close? I have Vols by 14 and winning National Championship by 7Vols by 10 next week vs Bama. Book it. Young or no Young
I'm going one week at a time. Not even remotely joking with that predictionThat close? I have Vols by 14 and winning National Championship by 7
If I had to pick one game to win of those 2 it's absolutely bama. I hate 'em worse than Florida. It goes back to when there weren't divisions and bama was the biggest SEC rivalry for UT. Adding East and West divisions kinda pushed Florida and Georgia up but for me it will always be bama.I don't think Tennessee will beat both Bama and Georgia. The easiest path to the CP is beat Bama, lose to Ga close in Athens, Ga beats Bama SECCG. Tn and GA in playoffs.
There is no close second for me. On my Hate Top 10 one through ten is alabama. I think west TN is the home office for Bandwagon Nation. They are EVERYWHERE. One of my closest friends is a bandwagon bammer. Granted he got on the bandwagon in the late 70's, but he's had over 40 years to change his evil ways. Over the years I've stolen the alabama flag off his house, put Tennessee Vol stickers on his truck, found alabama license plates on my truck, and on and on.If I had to pick one game to win of those 2 it's absolutely bama.

We can't complain about where we stand currently, that's for sure!The ONLY way they will let TN into the big game will be if they are undefeated and Alabama and Georgia both lose at least one game each.
I'm all for it but I just don't think they get there.
GBO !
Looking alot better.
Exactly. 2nd year coach.We can't complain about where we stand currently, that's for sure!
