If you had to pick a game to lose.

IMO Make it to Bama in the west. We just need to win the east and stay healthy for UGA and our east opponents. Not saying I want to lose or think we will. With LSU and UF behind us this one is free money. Especially with Bama favored.

I'm with you. An SECCG appearance would be great for this team.

I think I’d rather lose to Georgia. If we beat Bama and lose to Georgia, and then they beat Bama in the SEC championship, I think we get into the playoff. If we lose to Bama twice, no shot we get in.

If you lose to UGA then you probably wont make the SEC title game.

If you lose to Georgia you probably don’t get in the SEC championship game.

If you lose to Bama, your in the championship and you beat them once.

Title is “a game to lose”……..so I’d pick the first Bama game.

Tennessee would most definitely be in the playoff. Beat Georgia, only loss to Bama then avenge that loss in the championship game.

 

[Volfan574]

A loss to Bama would be ok if we beat Georgia.

Beat Bama, lose to uga, still make playoffs

Get the holidays rest and not have the sec championship game to play.

 

[jmacvols1]

Beat Alabama AND Georgia and the rest of the SEC schedule and lose to UT Martin??

Only if I get a win in rematch in SECCG

 

[WoodsmanVol]

Why pick a game to lose when you prefer to win them all?

 

[Dudleys87]

If I had a choice I’d rather not lose.

If I had to pick I’d lose to UT Martin.
Beat Bama and Georgia and win the SEC

I would really like to beat Bama, don’t care about the playoff math stuff

 

[Special Ed]

Two things I no longer pick:
Games to lose.
And
My nose.

(Okay, only one of those is true)

 

[txbo]

I’m from the era where beating Bama was a good year. Losing to Bama was a bad year. Nothing else mattered.

 

[TennVols12]

Wouldn’t have to Champ

Can we choose how we lose? Like all the scholarship players eat bad crab dip before UT Martin and have to miss the game?

 

[GordonC]

seriously love the spirit of this thread
in the past, we were picking which of "x" games we wanted to win
now we're picking if we have to lose one
think about that
BOOM

Beat Bama, lose to uga, still make playoffs

That's doubtful if UGA and Bama both finish the season with 1 loss.

 

[Boone&Crockett]

I'm with your line of thinking although I think we have a slightly better chance of beating Georgia, a loss to them and winning out let's us skip the SECG and another possible loss that would knock us out of any playoff hopes and seriously downgrade our bowl choices, I think at the end of the day a big bowl appearance and being relevant again helps recruiting so much if we can't win out completely let's hope for a BCS birth and show out at a big bowl.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Let's beat UGA and get revenge against the Bammers in the SECG. May play them again in the playoffs too.

 

[Sarms58]

If I had to pick a game to lose I would pick Georgia to lose their game…every week.

Georgia all day. Beat Bama and we get sent to top 3-4 for a chance at 1 vs 2 game at Georgia. Lose that one and we at worst fall to 5.

From there we sit 11-1 beating top 2 team (Bama) with loss to Top 2 team (Georgia).

I care more about the easiest path to a playoff spot and beating Bama and losing to Georgia basically makes it a coin flip come SEC title weekend with us at 11-1, Georgia at 12-0, and Bama at 11-1.

Georgia wins, we are in. Bama wins, we are out.

 

[Jeff Clark]

I think Tennessee upsets Alabama and loses to Georgia and winds up going to the Orange Bowl with an 11-1 record to play NCSU.
