Looking at the SEC picture right now

[ConantheVolbarian]

That Arkansas loss sucks even more. If we had won that game like we should have we'd be the lone undefeated team in the SEC right now and could afford to lose to Georgia next week. As it stands, next week is pretty much must win. It's looking less and less likely that we'd get into the playoff with 2 losses.

If the SEC only gets four teams in the playoffs I am not sure we make it with 2 losses.

 

[yabadabadolnavy]

Next week is a must win

 

[Orange931]

Georgia’s backs are against the wall, but ours are as well. They just had to let us down against Ole Miss.

 

[J C Higgins]

Next week is a must win

This….
No ifs ands or buts. It’s win next week or we’re out

But so many said the Arkansas loss was a freebie for us and we could have one more.

We could have if UGA won today

But so many said the Arkansas loss was a freebie for us and we could have one more.

That seemed logical then but not with all the upsets that have happened since. There'll be a lot of ranked teams with 2 losses and we all know we'll get the shaft if we end up with 2 losses.

 

[cherokeeeVOL]

Ok well Georgia has two losses and they didn’t look good today. Our D is just as good or better than Ole Miss so I don’t think next week is insurmountable.

 

[BJWeeks]

10-2 will get Vols in playoffs cause if they choose bama over us with the same record then things will be bad

 

[dovervolz]

Same as 2022. We were ranked #1 in BCS standing then too. Remember how that game turned out.

 

[gnm53108]

Beat ga and we’re looking at atlanta.

 

[UT97Vol]

Beat ga and we’re looking at atlanta.

And Vandy. Do that and we are guaranteed Atlanta now because Texas and A&M would eliminate one or the other.

 

[Dudleys87]

Georgia is garbage

The game plan should be simple

Create pressure force Beck off his spots and take what they give you.

Georgia D looked a lot like Bama did against Hooker.

Defense will keep us in it can Nico hit the split routes that’s the key

As I argued this point already in the past two weeks almost a guarantee that will happen now especially the way Bama handled LSU. They will be back in the top 10 tomorrow/Tuesday - probably jump ND. We will be #5. Lose to UGA and Bama will be ranked ahead of us. Guaran-damn-tee ya

Bama has more good wins than we do.

 

[NeverWe'llSever]

Arkansas is such a horrible loss, but the Bama win made up for it, big time. We’re exactly where I expected to be at this point in the year. Honestly, even better than expected. I expected to lose to OU and Bama.

 

[Behr]

It's almost like some of you want us to not make it so you can bish about it.

We can still make it with 2 losses.

 

[BeardedVol]

10-2 will get Vols in playoffs cause if they choose bama over us with the same record then things will be bad

Milroe almost singlehandedly destroyed LSU tonight, and the CFP committee passed over an undefeated Florida State who lost their QB last year.

So if it comes down to Alabama or us, we're probably going to need Nico to ball out in the rest of the games on a level he hasn't done all season to get picked over them.

 

[Tennessee Jedd]

We are going to beat Georgia. You heard it here first!

 

[Shocker0]

Bama has more good wins than we do.

Uh we literally beat them. And they lost to vanderbilt

 

[loservol]

This is where everyone in the SEC stands right now. Nice to see that the good guys are on top.

Same as 2022. We were ranked #1 in BCS standing then too. Remember how that game turned out.

There was no BCS rankings in 2022.

 

[TrueOrange]

Uh we literally beat them. And they lost to vanderbilt

Vanderbilt’s 6-4 right now. It’s not a bad loss this year.

I wouldn’t be say their garbage but they definitely look suspect. They’ve had a hell of a scheldule. It’s going to be a slug fest
