An outlier does not necessarily equal a terrible loss. It's a loss. Clearly you don't understand how basketball works. A quandrant 2 loss is not a "terrible" loss.

Kentucky is 39th in the NET (Q2)
Temple is 126th in the NET (Q3)

Temple also lost to Vanderbilt and Ole Miss. "One in the same" my a$$.

Not sure why you're so dedicated to believing the Vols are bad and losing to Kentucky (we average 1 loss to UK every season for the last 10 years) is a mark of death.

Where did I say the vols were bad? I said it was a terrible loss. A Kentucky team who was beaten at home by a SC team we just beat by 40+(At SC),then beating us at home. That is a terrible loss. Put whatever spin you want on it.

Alabama beat them by 20+ at UK.

Tua is average and his brain is scrambled eggs now but he is still light years better than anything else they have.

Don't disagree with any of this. Tua will be done with football is my guess. One more concussion or scare and it's over. Which is why I think Miami should draft Hendon.

Let's see how they finish, the Cats are playing much better ball right now.

It’s really hard to follow the info on transfers by jamming it all in here.

Anyway - stay tuned in next 24-48 hours

I’m just waiting until they announce they’re coming. The revolving door is hard to keep up with. Thanks for the update.

Everyone and their mother at the organization has openly committed to Tua for next year, but I hope they explore options still. I don’t think Gesicki was a Tua problem as much as McDaniel has stated that the play calls neglect the TEs and that he needed to be better at that. Gesicki was also a bit of a square peg in a round hole situation in this scheme, he’s a terrible blocker. His snap share dropped from last year to this year. If he was an all around TE instead of a WR in a TE body he’d have been much more useful.

Sherfield would be the role that you’d see Jennings slot in if he came to MIA.

I'm referencing number of targets not role with that. Gesicki was 3rd in targets but the gap is significant between 3 and 2.

Alabama played them at home. But I will never understand every year how people don’t truly understand what the committee deems as a “bad loss.” Q2 is not that.

Y’all we watched some of the 4th quarter of the SF game just to see if JJ got to the next round. We couldn’t believe these were pro players going to the championship game. Stepping out of bounds when you are trying to run out the clock. Not dragging the second foot. And the play calls! I admit I haven’t watched much pro since Peyton retired, but…

Referring to Katz’s bball bracket. Clemson after seeing this…

And you're continuing to prove you don't understand how basketball works.

If Kentucky finishes with less than 10 losses I will color myself purple.

You might want to get started on finding a big purple crown.

 

[MarcoVol]

Cause they are stupid.

3 trips to NFC champ game in 4 seasons says otherwise

 

[RudyVol]

I have quite a hard time caring about a loss in January. Let's find our groove next month for March and get guys healthy in the meantime.

 

[VolNash17]

That would be a very navigable bracket, though.

That’s what we usually always say lolz…

Placing my vote to stomp a mudhole in SC's ass this year.

SC is imp rakrooting area. And this seems like a goodyear, swidt?

Could breathe through the snorkel, but couldn’t raise my head upwards any. No way to back up without the snorkel getting stuck…
Just insanely stupid…

There was a ride/obstacle at a water park called the ‘up and over’ - just 2 small pools of water connected by an enclosed tube, that was completely flooded.
You had to hold your breath and swim underwater, up and over thru the tube, and exit into the second pool of water where you could then swim up to the open surface.

I look back on that now and wonder where the adults were. Who the hell thought that was a good idea? One kid gets stuck in there and it’s a tragedy…

 

[Ace]

Losing to Kentucky is not the same as losing to Temple. In no universe is it the same. And UK is at least, right now, a tournament team.

And my point is that it's basketball, and almost every team has an outlier loss. It's not a big deal. If you don't understand that, you don't understand basketball.

He does not understand because he is a troll. He pops up every now and then to stir the pot

Prob already posted, but y’all see the RaRa Thomas news? Caught a felony charge

Not trying to call you out specifically but maybe this is a good point to reflect about having too high of an expectation for college kids. The expectations (from the fans) for football players and coaches to be perfect is out of control. I can understand expecting better from the professional teams, but reality is that this is part of the sport and always has been.

Lest we forget, we destroyed them last year. The focus will be real next year and the results will be splendid I predict.

People pour milk in the bowl first!?!

Yeah I had a coworker that did it this way. Said it kept the cereal from getting soggy. Started a discussion in the breakroom and there were several milk first folks. Who knew they were amongst us? How do you know if you have the milk: cereal ratio right?

They have zero chance next year in Neyland

That game will be at night

Neyland will be nuts

The defense will play their faces off

I do declare the Vawls will drop 60+ on them cocks!
