Good news, since the committee simply copies the AP poll, so far.

Dang. USCjr jumped Ole Miss. I'd be pissed if I were Ole Miss. They crushed USCjr in Columbia.

 

[Shaun1985]

Ohio State should have fell a lot more.

 

[VolTom1]

The way it should be, but the CFP will have us lower. Watch.

Nope

 

[SteensVol]

CFP will have pressure now! Not to put Ohio State hosting Tennessee now!
Tennessee should be hosting! They had their big day! Time for Gameday at Knoxville December 20th! Let’s kick this thing off in style!
Go Vols!

 

[Orange defense]

So, the AP poll has Bama coming to Knoxville. Oh boy!

 

[UTK]

While I appreciate we’re rightfully ranked above OSU….

bama at 11th is the biggest sham I’ve ever seen. Any other logo that resume ain’t in the top 20 lol

They would still be the 1st team out so that makes me happy

 

[Orange defense]

So, the coaches poll and the ap has Bama coming to Knoxville. Now, we wait for the playoff poll.

A lot of the sports media pundits have been riding South Carolina's jock for the past two months. Best defense in the nation, their QB is an amazing player who's one of the best in the nation, etc. We've been hearing the "South Carolina should be a playoff team" as far back as the last week of October. There's going to be a strong push over the next week from that same sports media to get Scarolina in over other teams who've beaten them.

 

[BADGER_VOL]

I Knew they’d not drop OSU as they should. I knew they’d justify it by thinking it didn’t matter that OSU was the home team and picked to win by a ton, MI is a rival so it doesn’t matter it’s not really a bad loss. Such

 

[UT97Vol]

Ohio State should have fell a lot more.

I thought they would be behind SMU and in front of Indiana but they have no business being in front of us losing game #12 against an unranked opponent at home, so I’m satisfied with that. Hopefully the committee does the right thing. Notice how Miami fell more with a road loss than OSU did with a home loss to a team that didn’t have its two best players.

They would still be the 1st team out so that makes me happy

Hopefully it stays that way. Bama has the 2 worst losses of anyone in the current Top 20, no business being in there. This is no longer Saban’s bama squad so let’s drop the bias

Last week Tenn was 7 in AP, 8 in CFP.

 

[just bob]

Need to be 6 in the CFP to have a chance to host a playoff game.

 

[UT97Vol]

Guys some of you continue to get this confused.

If we go by the AP and assume for moment that’s the same as the CFP, Alabama is in but not playing us.

We would be the #8 seed hosting Ohio State.

 

[Dadof2Vols]

The way it should be, but the CFP will have us lower. Watch.

Probably but they said they view later in season losses worse than earlier in season. Can’t get any later than the Ryan Day Boy’s loss yesterday.

No, rankings and the bracket are different. Plus Oregon, Penn State, Texas, Georgia all play and 2 of them have to lose. We really want Oregon and Texas to win. That moves us up to #6 playing likely Arizona State l

 

[JohnWardForever]

Just imagine if our guy doesn't run into Arkie's kicker..........#2 or 3. But, we'd be in ATL with a chance of losing or getting someone hurt. So, as long as UT gets a Home Game, maybe better off. Get everyone healthy, who knows what can happen?

Ole Miss did it to themselves. They lost to Kentucky at home. Carolina’s only other losses were to the refs vs LSU and two points to Alabama on the road. Whenever you give a conference opponent their only win of the season then you lose all credibility.

If Arizona St wins the Big 12 I think they jump Alabama. If they lose is then Iowa St probably is the 12 seed.

Right, either way I think that is who we play

 

[VAVol85]

I’m pleasantly surprised, I would have bet OSU would have stayed just above us.

You want Oregon and Texas to win? DONE. Rubbed the lamp....
