Nebraska and Oregon scheduled a home and away for 2016-2017 so our series was pushed back. I think it makes sense because of the Battle at Bristol game against V-Tech. It would have been a tough schedule to play VTech, Nebraska, and the SEC schedule all in one season. I know we aren't supposed to run from anyone but a team can only take so much. You have to have some easy games on your schedule to work out kinks and rest injured players.

I don't want us buying out of anymore games, it makes us look scared and weak.

So I'm glad that this was pushed back and the media could look at it and not put it on us.

As for the Vandy schedule next year, well I'm sorry but I think they should have to play more than 2 OOC games against opponents that have been in the FBS longer than 5 years to be eligible for a bowl. The fact they play one non-FBS team should force them to win at least 7 games to be bowl eligible. I don't think its fair to count a victory, towards a bowl game, against any teams not in your own division.

But then again thats why noone, but some of our fans, consider CJF a real candidate for a top coaching job. They use him so they can say they gave a minority an interview. He would need to go to another small school in a real conference and repeat the "success" at Vandy but against a real OOC schedule to ever be seriously considered for a top job. Or he could buyout all these cupcakes and FCS/former FCS teams and schedule a couple of real OOC games and still try to win 8-10 games at Vandy.

There is no minority rule in the NCAA and if you don't think he is doing a great job at Vandy then you are blinded by your hate for him and that school

So considering UT played APSU (which is an FCS school) should UT have been allowed to participate in a bowl game had they beaten Vandy?

I'm going out on a limb and saying you would agree that UT should have been allowed to play in a bowl.

Remember (pre-2005 I believe it was) when a victory over an FCS school could only be counted towards bowl eligibility once every four years?

I do. You rarely saw a game scheduled against and FCS school. With 30 + bowl games now, they're willing to count any win.

Sorry slick, but JF is the best football coach in the state. He's the best coach this state has had since the mid 2000's... He's probably leaving so we won't have to worry about it much longer.
