Basillo Point about wanting Bama to lose to LSU…

[VolForLife83]

If we beat UGA, it doesn’t matter what Bama does. Assuming we don’t slip up against Vandy.

Not counting Vandy as an automatic win for sure. They'll have to earn it

 

[bpalmer28]

If Bama beats LSU, don't be suprised if they are ranked above the Vols in the playoffs polls next week.

only if the playoff committee wants to lose all credibility

I’ve refuted this in the simplest terms I can come with a dozen times, as have many others. This is my last try. Tennessee’s best chance to make it in at 10-2 is to get in WITH Bama at 10-2. I don’t know why so many people think one of us has to be left out but it’s not correct.

UGA 11-1
Texas 11-1
Bama/LSU 10-2
Tennessee 10-2

Or

UGA 11-1
Bama/LSU 10-2
Tennessee 10-2
A&M 10-2

The only way we can get left out is an Ole Miss win today or if the committee puts both Texas teams in.

The winner of Ole Miss/UGA and the winner of LSU/Bama are in. We are fighting for one of the other 2 remaining spots

How you feel today?

How you feel today?

Like we have to beat UGA or have Florida do us a favor and beat Ole Miss

 

[Vol4ever]

Like we have to beat UGA or have Florida do us a favor and beat Ole Miss

We gotta win out imo.

Yep. And this is why people should’ve been cheering for LSU to beat Alabama. Then LSU could be beaten by Florida or Vanderbilt.

It’s pretty clear now that a 2-loss Alabama will get in over a 2-loss Tennessee.

We live in a world where head to head doesn't matter as much as style or brand anymore. It's all about the money and that's about it. Bama's brand is more well known because of cheat azz Saban and his 15 years of playing domino's over everyone else. You won't win a beauty contest against them for a while.

 

[Cartervol]

We need Billy Napier's scrappy UF team to derail Lane Kiffin's Ole Piss team. They score a lot of points and they're the sexy ratings pick right now. UT was never going to win a beauty contest this year with a freshman QB. UGA really is a must win. Or you play in the we're not good enough to make the playoff bowl, but we're going to console you and pet you on the head for trying. Makes you want to puke.

Most likely

Bc our "cheering" affected the outcome?? Cool

 

[NighthawkVol]

Nope. But you feel free to make up statements to argue against if that gets you off.

This ENTIRE THREAD is about who we should be cheering for. Not one poster has said it will affect the outcomes.

 

[barney]

I know a way for us to punch our own ticket and not have to rely on the goodwill of the playoff committee.

And for that to happen, we needed LSU to lose.

 

[FranklinVFL]

We control our own destiny over the next three weeks. We do not depend upon anyone else’s outcome.

Win and we are in. Do not need to scoreboard watch or anything else. 100% up to the players and coaches on the field.

If we would have beat ARK, we likely would already be in. But now each week is a must win and winning out guarantees our spot no matter what happens in the SEC championship game or everywhere else in the NCAA.
