Are you pulling for any of the remaining teams...

Tennessee isn’t going to get the benefit of the doubt anymore and frankly doesn’t deserve it. Only reason we were in the discussion is because the SEC was bad this year, and we had the easiest schedule.

You're not wrong. I mean damn, we lost to Arky, barely beat Fla, Ala and KY. Our Non Conference schedule was absolute trash.

And why would they not matter? The past success of the SEC and teams like Alabama plays a huge part in the playoff discussion every year. Why else do you think there was legitimate debate about letting a 9-3 Alabama into the playoffs ahead of a 11-2 SMU this year? Or last year when 1-loss Alabama got in over undefeated Florida State?

What's happening this postseason will have a huge impact on how the playoffs debates go next year. If the SEC continues to get waxed by the Big 10, we will no longer get the benefit of the doubt about playing a grueling schedule. Think about it this way. As a 2-loss SEC team we were ranked ahead of a 1-loss Indiana. A major reason for that was because of the perception that the SEC schedule is tougher than other conference schedules. If the perception that our conference schedule is strong is gone then why would a 2-loss Tennessee be ahead of a 1-loss team from another conference? Next year you'll see 2-loss Big 10 teams being ranked ahead of 1-loss SEC teams because the perception will be that their conference is tougher.

Nope..This year has NO bearing on next year outside of who gets the bye's.

Pulling for Sun Devils and pulling for all SEC teams not named Tennessee to lose badly,

Sun Devils are making a huge comeback against Texas. Ever has thrown a couple of ints and , in my opinion, should have never started ahead of Arch. He floats the ball and often throws short, setting up the interceptions for the secondary. I hope Texas keeps Sarkisnian as their coach because he has difficulty in winning big games. He has the best talent money can buy, but I don’t think he can ever win the National Championship

in the playoffs?

I'm hoping for Oregon to win it all. After that, maybe Texas...would be cool to see Arch Manning play a role. After that, I like Penn State.

I could never pull for any team on the left coast. That includes Washington, Oregon, California ---any team west of Nevada. I'm pulling for Texas but they are trying to give this game away when they had it all but wrapped up

I get it but I’m the opposite. I don’t want tx or UGA to gain any more momentum than they already have, and ultimately, the weaker the top of the conference is, in theory, the easier for us to climb…though it’s always going to be a gauntlet. So, I’m probably for Oregon or PSU, but think pretty obvious OSU is best team if they duplicate their game against us.

This. I used to root SEC across the board. Now it does zero good. Non-conference losses now hurt our rivals in the playoff hunt, which helps us. I hate all the teams left and check out when Tennessee loses like most people here. Still, if I had to pick one I would pick OSU since they beat us.

Where do you live? Tell the truth. How many SEC games have you attended at stadiums other than Neyland. We are by no means a fan base that should be throwing stones at anyone else.

Farragut.

Ole Miss, UK, Auburn, OU, Missouri and 5 SECCGs.

Not saying we are not azzholes (we are), but I gauge by MY personal experiences. georgia never fails to impress.

It was a bad call to let him throw the ball up the middle in double coverage. All they had to do was run the ball and eat up the clock. Yes, he does throw floaters and at the worst time

Also got on the schedule Miss State (easily worst team in the conference), and an Oklahoma team that just managed to get to 6 wins (and ended the season losing to Navy).

Yep, Sarkisian's coaching kept ASU in the game, make some just stupid calls leading up to those long missed FGs.

He’s not a championship caliber coach. Gerogia proved that twice . He out talents his competition with his top 5 roster until he plays another team with the same talent and better coaching. Getting smacked at home by the first team with similar talent he played and losing to that same team again is not a sign of being an elite coach

This may be the first time I’ve ever seen UGA fans and classy used in the same sentence.

One of them is a Pharmacist and the other is a football coach. Probably a little more educated than the King of Kodak TN who took a swing at me at the Orange and White when I politely asked him to quit smoking next to my 2 year old. Georgia has total ass clowns no doubt…but we aren’t the ones to talk about it.
