A national championship with no sec teams...

[TrueOrange]

Good thing winning your division isn't a requirement and has been done before. :cool2:

you guys would need a lot of help...quite a bit


and honestly, the voters probably aren't going to be terribly keen on doing "SEC v SEC" again, after last year, if there are other options on the table

 

[UGADawg4Life]

If UGA consistently competed or played for as many national titles as Bama, I'd probably feel the same way as many UT fans. I hate UGA as much as you guys hate us and Bama.

What a coincidence! We feel the same way about UF! :yes:

 

[Ttucke11]

Not sure if serious.

That NC game is not very far out of the realm of possibility. K State loses @TCU or to Texas, ND loses to USC, and Oregon has Stanford, Oregon State, and their championship game to win. IF all that happens and Bama beats UGA in the SEC Championship then Florida sneaks in somehow, especially if they cap the season off with a big win over FSU.

NC game:Bama34 K St 20. Book it danno. Snyder is due. No way anyone beats the Tide imo. I hate it too. Bama is my most hated team by far. They take fb dead serious however&won`t tolerate Dooley`s. We gotta get Strong!

To hell with the rest of the conference.

Make no mistake, Bama will crush UGA in the SECCG.

As for all those other dominos that need to fall our way, UF has to beat FSU in Tallahassee, and I don't see it happening.

Alabama has a game this weekend iirc. Just sayin. The season is far from over.

 

[volbeast33]

I agree completely. His emotion at the end was warranted.

Yeah right.....put mccarron on a different team and see if he looks that great.

Yeah, McCarron would suck if he played QB for Charleston Southern!!! :loco:

Agree 100%.

I find it laughable that some folks here are hating on McCarron.

The kid led a perfect two minute drill, with the season on the line, playing on the road at night against LSU...an LSU squad that's had this game circled since the BCS title game debacle.

Haters gonna hate....I've got nothing but respect for McCarron.

 

[dukes_of_maggard]

Seriously people, all our rivals winning NC is bad for us. I don't see how you could say otherwise.

It drives up the cost for ESPN of televising UK and Tennessee games when other teams win NCs - you get money you wouldn't otherwise when the profile (and price) of the conference is up.

agreed - sour grapes

Larry, you forgot to say that Chavis put his defense in "prevent". LSU defense dominated until that happened.

I didn't forget anything...I understand bringing up 3rd and Chavis is a coping mechanism for some of you guys, but it's not as though LSU only played with 9 defenders on that last drive.

Bama made plays down the stretch when they had to. You don't get credit for dominating every second half possession, with the exception of the one that mattered.

The last pass in that drive was a screen that went for a TD because LSU was blitzing.

As long as the SEC continues to win, it is GREAT for the current Vol Program. If they are 11th in the SEC, they are in the top 20 in the country. We just have to start beating SEC teams and we will be in good shape! Just imagine if the SEC was down... NO ONE would go to Tenn. Sorry, the truth hurts. I know it is hard, but continue to root for SEC is you want relevance for the Vols!

So kids only come to Tennessee because of what the SEC is now? Get real. And maybe get a new avatar, cause the one you have is freaking me out.eace2:

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

That last drive was that of a championship team .

I think McCarron is the best qb in the NCAA.

Your first statement is probably true. The second statement is not correct. He is a caretaker most of the time. Klein at Kansas State is asked to do way more and Matt Barkley is better,and a handful of others including Tahj Boyd and Josh Nunes which both were formerly committed to play here. AJ McCarron doesn't have to throw the ball that often and when he does the safeties are usually up to respect Bamas running attack. He has all the time in the world with all those pro linemen blocking for him.

Calling BS. 18-157yds. Not all that damn good imho

I hope and pray that one of our rivals, specifically Bama, doesn't win the title this year.

For those saying that the SEC being good helps us. I refrence you to the mid to late 90s. The SEC was pretty equivalent to the B1G today in having only 2 good teams, yet we were nationally relevant. Make no mistake, our glory days were built on the haplessness of UGA and LSU, and the NCAA mutilated corpse of Alabama. Peyton Manning doesn't make it out of Louisiana today, and if he did he wouldn't make it past Tuscaloosa. Mark Richt doesn't let Jamal Lewis leave Atlanta today.
