Go Alabama!

This thread makes me sick. I'm embarrassed for the OP. Under no circumstance should a Vol root for Bama, ever. I hope Pruitts defense gives up 7 touchdowns to Clemson.

Vols hating bammers transcends one man.

It's always good to pull for the SEC teams against other conferences. Helps recruiting and gets the SEC more dollars to divide. Since we won't be getting any big bowl game payout this year I imagine every dollar helps. Especially since we will owe Botch and ShiaNo millions.

Rooting for sec teams does nothing to help Tennessee.

I get those of you who are pissed about our new head coach, remaining with the alabummers through the playoffs. You question his loyalty to us, especially since his background is as a homer for bama. And I know this year its different too because of early recruiting.

But I think you are looking at this all wrong, especially for the longer term.

First, no matter what, recruiting this year is going to be tough. You have the Haslams and our corrupt, inept administration to thank for that. That said, Pruitt has been the #1 recruiter in the COUNTRY for multiple years, so if anyone can turn it around, he can. You can say, its not as easy as recruiting at FSU, Ga or bummer but Pruitt was #1 recruiter at all 3 programs. I think I will trust him just a bit. Also, dont you think recruits he contacts are going to want to talk to a guy who is (was just) in the playoffs? Talk about street cred.

Second, I think it helps with recruiting longer term because guys know that he would not leave them in the lurch. I think that he is willing to stay and not just dart off to his next gig says a lot to the guys who will want to play for him (and their parents).

Last, over the near term, the younger guys coming up will look at how many rings this guy has won. You can say "but he was not HC" all you want but kids are going to see rings. Sadly, we are not even in a bowl game and whether bamma wins another NC or not will not have a major difference on their program. But you cant tell me that Pruitt having another NC ring (even from bamma) wont help with his recruiting over the next 2-3 years as we build our program. Guys will listen because they know he is a winner, not just full of slogans.

In 2-3 years perhaps we can be competing for our own NC rings and his record elsewhere will matter much less. But for now, I think it does and why I will root for Bama to win this - surely moreso than Ga who we do not need to get any stronger, Clemson too for that matter. Okies are the only ones who are far enough away to recruit well away from our wheelhouse.

I want our new coach to be in the best position to build us into a monster that will DESTROY his old team. And to do that, for now, for this one day, I can hope they win a shutout. :clapping:

*EDIT*

Yea, I got on my flame retardant suit. I want them to win Bamma 3, OK - 0. Major Defensive game. Cant see why all of you are Clemson fans. :bammer:

Life is never that simple. Scenario: Tennessee has one loss on the season, to let’s say, Florida. Alabama plays a one SEC loss Florida team and Alabama’s win would put Tennessee in Atlanta with a chance to enter the top four and the playoff. Are you for Florida?

I'm for Ebola to hit both teams before kickoff. Or a meteor. Either will do

In all seriousness though, the precedent has been set. Florida wins the SECG and we go to the NC being that we finished third with 1 loss. Then we whup dey azz later on.... again.

I hope Bama loses in the first round 3-0. If their defense looks great, that’s all that matters for Pruitt to look even better.

I hope UGA gets blown out in the first round too.

Not that sitting on my coach watching Bama playing someone and rooting for them makes a difference, but I will IF...

Them winning means Tennessee will advance to the SECCG or playoffs.

Or, it means saving the world from total destruction.

I will NOT, because our new HC is coaching their defense in a playoff game(s).

Alabama is conflicted on sending a child predator to congress over a decent human being that happens to not be a republican. Not a chance anyone should cheer for this state to be happy.

My sentiments are expressed above by several posters. If the choice is global destruction wiping out all life on Earth or pull for Bama, my response is, "Goodbye cruel world, let 'er blow!!!" Credit to Early Cuyler of Squidbillies
