I think an 11-1 Tennessee team no matter what will go to the Sugar Bowl if they don't make the Playoffs. If Tennessee wins out,Alabama goes 9-3 and LSU loses in the SECCG to Georgia here is how i think it will be

Tennessee vs Texas in the Sugar Bowl
LSU vs North Carolina in the Orange Bowl
Alabama vs Penn State in the ReliaQuest Bowl

Oh for sure. I was just point out if LSU beats UGA they will be SEC champs but won’t go to the playoffs so the Sugar is required to take them. If we don’t look good we’ll likely get jumped by a 1 loss division winner. We might get picked up for a NY6 at large bid but I wouldn’t expect it if we don’t look like world beaters these last 3 games.

You can't "play for" a blowout. You have to take what they give you, and then trust that it will work out favorably. When the breaks go your way, score. And that's how you get a blowout.

Wrong. If you have listened to any of the plethora of sports broadcasters, you would know what I say is true. UGA is undefeated so that example is useless. Sorry to tell you but style points matter. Especially since we play 3 cupcakes in a row. If we don’t blow all of them out, they could easily keep us out.

Where is Michigan’s style points? Where is TCU style points? If both of them lose another game and we win out playing well who passes us??? Heck we have style pointed as much as anyone this year, especially anyone that is behind us. We beat LSU by 27 in their own back yard daytime nightime whatever we whipped them at game time. Who has better style points than that?And it’s not that I don’t think we won’t win convincingly, I expect us to play well in all 3 games anyway. GBO!

This feels like Kentucky all over again. People, it’s time to let go of the inferiority complex. We are 5th. We won’t just beat our last three opponents, we will slaughter them. We still have the motivation to go all out. We have a playoff bid on the line.

We should win them handily, but Missouri has played many teams tough and South Carolina on the road isn’t a easy game. But we should still win. I expect we will play plenty well. GBO!

It would be so Tennessee to drop one of these three games when everyone is caught up talking about if we’re gonna get a spot in the playoffs ONCE we win out. Ive read this book before…. My BVS is strong.

Watching a Rifleman rerun - Mark has been kidnapped. In this case there is no reason for concern we know Lucas will rescue him.

Missouri has a solid defense and Georgia showed how to disrupt the Vol offense - therefore prepare yourselves to work 4 quarters for this one. Hooker will find a way just like Lucas McCain.

Don't turn on our great coaching staff and team if one of the opponents rises up and plays a super competitive game and there is no blowoff.

Pump the brakes and then pump them again. A win is a win... Crowd needs to be crazy again tomorrow and push the team on.

At least one of these games will be a nail biter. That's ok - Pitt and Bama games prove the Vols can win in the 4th or 5th quarters.

Feel great - did not have to play 4 quarters. Mizzou closed to 28-24. Mighty Vols then get pizzed and score 38 more points and set all time offense numbers. That is what we all want to see and this could just be a National Champ team. Missouri is not a bad defense but once again - a decent team is dismantled by the Vols. 2 more to go and then the Playoffs. I think it was better for the Vols for the game to get close and then they had to go for the throat and put up points. Terrific game! The sneaky play to Hyatt that broke the game open was a beauty.

Secondary is just too bad to win a natty, even if Georgia was out of the equation.

I pumped the brakes and must have had air in the line, they went all the way to the floor. Almost like a gas pedal was pushed
