We CAN beat them. That doesn't mean it's a sure thing. If you don't believe it's possible, why bother watching the game? Really, that is just asinine. I bet that you will agree if you think about it for a minute.

That is the biggest flaw I see on this site. Too many people are quick to spout off without thinking first. Then to top it off, they are too stubborn to admit they were wrong. Ponderous.

No we cannot. I will watch the game because I am hoping to see some continued improvement from the team. You are not really thinking about this logically. I am willing to bet you did not think we could beat Oregon.

It's pretty simple, I know Alabama is a superior team to us in every way. There is nothing wrong with admitting that. It's not asinine at all. It's just living in reality, which you must not.

It's football. People are human. Anything can happen regardless of team. No, it most likely won't happen, but to act like its impossible and the less talented team doesn't have a chance is a little much. I'll say i don't see us winning that game but I'll be holding out hope

To say any given can't beat another team is ridiculous. To say they are unlikely to beat another team is logical.

I'm as nervous for this gm as any others. I know we played pretty good last wk but you also have to remember that GA was very beat up. And for the people saying that bama didn't look that good against KY is crazy they didn't even play hard against KY. Lets just hope that Butch can get this team to play as hard as they did against GA. GO VOLS!

All I know is the crowd needs to continue where they left off at the GA game. We need to do our part to help the team out, and then hope they can play like they did in the second half against GA. If those 2 things happen, we will be alright.

Ok I guess I'm guilty of being over optimistic. In fact I was kind da bummed when the new rankings came out and sc is just outside the top ten. I was thinking when was the last time we beat a top ten team. Oh well. We'll just have to wait one more week!

As long as we beat a top 25 team ill be very happy the darn losing streak is a abomination.

How is telling people they shouldn't count a game that hasn't been played yet as a win anything like telling people they're not allowed to have an opinion??? You're missing the exact point of both of my posts...

Logic: Tennessee has a legitimate chance to win.
Flaw: Tennessee is definitely going to win for sure book it.

Logic: This team hasn't really earned anything yet, and the game is still a week away.
Flaw: We almost beat Georgia, let's look ahead to Alabama and Missouri

Logic: Putting down South Carolina as an "already in the bag" game is foolish.
Flaw: DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!!! SORRY I CAN'T HAVE AN OPINION!!!!1

I'm the one who made the thread about the Alabama & Kentucky game, you pulsating glob of negavol. I never said it'd be a sure win I simply posted on the possibility that we have to do so. Thank you for encouraging me to like every post in this thread that's called you out thus far though.

:good!:
