Give me 9 wins (bowl game included), beat Kensucky and anyone but uga win the national championship please.

A win vs missouri is just icing on the cake.

Maybe this is a wake up call. I mean yesterday was about as blatant as I can remember. They count on people refusing to believe there's an agenda behind it. Will more people question the validity of these games. To me, it's usually the simplest of explanations. Usually you follow the money. Bama and GA are your best chances of getting two teams in the playoffs. That's what they work toward from week one.

Really surprised we are not ranked above Alabama in national recognition and protest that the game was flagrantly rigged by the Birmingham Alabama Conference. 😆

You're making me think we won't win much these next few weeks because of the officials😕

Except last year when Tennessee was a legit contender... Suddenly the calls
in that game were strangely even....🤔

None of the things you snipe about mattered one iota. It was televised racketeering, not a football game. Bama's OL held every down. Joe's did not. Apples and oranges. You didn't even notice the stolen TD pass we suffered in the first quarter on an uncalled blatant defensive holding on our receiver in the endzone. You repeat your tired old mantra regardless of circumstance. These circumstances were rigging on a truly historic level.

It’s not mutually exclusive. There’s a ref screw job and the team sh*t the bed in the second half and admitted such in post game interviews. There’s an obvious lack of leadership starting with QB. Refs don’t affect that.

Not anti-Joe, but I'm not sure this sentiment is inaccurate either...

Even at his best, he only put up 6.6 YPA. Hooker was nearly double that vs Bama, 12.8 YPA.

Not saying you have to be HH, but your best needs to 8+ YPA at mininum. An extra 80+ yards could have gone a long way to scoring more than just 20 pts.

Crazy, next season will be vastly different

They learned their lesson last year. Why was it so lopsided this year? Both teams had one loss.

Well day after- Joe didn’t lose the game but we are limited with him at qb.

We ran the same 4th down plays last year but HH was our qb.

Refs didn’t solely lose us the game but if you can’t see they altered the game in bama’s favor you weren’t looking.

Sucks we lost for sure but at least we aren’t Arky, S Carolina, N Carolina or Clemson!
Can only imagine what their fan sites are like today!

Tennessee wasn't supposed to be close to the level of bama. Notice what happened against Georgia last year after Tennessee beat bama. Blatant DPIs that were never called

Well..... This is really crappy then. Why stay with a conference that is this petty? We'll always be "out of favor" because the conference headquarters is 1 hour away from the biggest cheats in the NCAA and one of our biggest rivals. It's not going to get better, only worse. Yesterday should have shown everyone that, there are no consequences for corrupt officials or alabama. Besides, they still think they "owe" us over Philip Fulmer.

We probably sealed our fate with the conference when we revolted against the Schiano hire publicly. I still don’t regret it.

I’m surprised that no one is mentioning how big of an impact not having Mincey the majority of the second half limited our offense / play calling.

After his injury we were no longer able to consistently run against Bama, causing us to have to pass much more / play from 3rd and medium to long.

Think even with the refs we would have been able to grind it out with him out there instead of Dayne Davis.

Don’t hang out in the BB forum much, do you? Checkerboard had been trolling over there for years. It’s his M.O.

Trolls here. Trolls baseball also. Famously declared he was never post again if we beat Florida last year. Admitted he was a troll after the game, saying he wouldn't leave because he has so much fun deliberately pissing off the board. It's just how he is. I would guess he used to be a fan and is one of those who got a terminal case of BVS and warped into a hater. It's a shame, really.

Saban said that Bama played with 4 down linemen in the second half versus 3 in the first half. I don't think you can blame that on Davis. It seems to me that the coaches didn't adjust to this or didn't notice.

Actually it wasn’t even that even… Definitely was heavily in Tennessee’s favor. Bama had 11 more penalties for 100 more yards iirc

Eh, that stat is skewed a little. PI's and holds were fairly even, Bama had 9 false starts or delay of games that skewed the numbers.
Procedural penalties arent really objective like others are.
