That’s impossible thst the committee keeps the sec out entirely. Plus I have this maybe misguided theory that should saban win one more, he’s retiring.

I'm just saying............

If FSU and Texas win, and Bama wins and leap-frogs OSU, FSU, and Texas, moving from #8 to #4.................I might storm the SEC offices........and I'll have an army of elite accomplices.

Any way you can add that Bama doesn't get in the playoffs as well?

I'd love the SEC blocked out.......

Just have a hard time seeing them pass on the SEC champ...one loss....who beats uga. It would be a dream come true to see both UGA and bama out of the playoffs, but I have a hard time seeing it. Although if Texas and FSU both lose, they might take OSU over bama. The do love it when both michigan and osu are in the playoffs.

Matt Jones tweeting that Kensucky fans gonna be excited about their portal haul.

I mean, they’re gonna need it. They’ve lost their top two backs, top safety, top nickel corner, back up tight end, and rumors of more to come - to thr portal or draft declarations.

They’re not uscjr bad off, but not far off either.

Playoffs

Re-alignment


In the next 10/15 years, Amazon is going to pay 32 P5 teams to form an "NFL type league."
Those teams that don't play up to standards will be regulated like soccer, and others will move up for their chance.

It's coming............book it.



EDIT: It's already being discussed............

Idk man, I mean I hope I’m wrong but the targets that visited (Saleapaga, Seaton, Elias Williams, Kam Mikell, Michael Smith) reports were all pretty positive leading up to that game for those prospects. After the ass whoopin we’ve missed on 3 of those and we seem to be fading on Seaton/Smith now

Never understood why fans would pull for any SEC team against and OOC foe. We're directly competing AGAINST everyone else in the league. I'm pulling for bama only because I live in the middle of dawg country and their every win is like salt in a gaping flesh wound. My world is going to be very dark if uga wins a third straight title. Anybody but uga. Of course, I was pulling hard for the Ducks last night and we see my luck holds true. Put your money on the dawgs today. They're a lock.

It definitely didn’t help with the 24 class. It matters less with the 25 and 26 because they’ll visit a bunch more between then and signing day.

But yeah it definitely wasn’t good for us. We got man handled and the stadium was emptying early third quarter. Chants of “UGA UGA UGA” were loud and constant.

I’m sure a lot of the kids left saying all the right things, because let’s be honest - kids never not say positive things post any visit.

Elias Williams was also feeling Bama and is sticking with Mizzou. Bama is playing for the SEC championship today.

Michael Smith didn’t come to that game and won’t come to campus.

Mikell committed to Colorado who went 4-8. Really think us losing to UGA turned him off?

Saleapaga we were always chasing Oregon. Maybe his mind could’ve been changed if we won. Maybe?

We would. And he’d visit. He’d love it. He’d say it feels like family. Staff keeps it real. Didn’t realize how great a city Knoxville is until he visited. VQ would say we’re deep in it. We’d make his top 5. Then top 3. He’d be looking at or pointing to the Vols logo in his graphic. His thread would get up to 60+ pages. Insiders would post eyeball emojis or just post “go Vols.” Then the kid would pick someone else. I’d post how the staff can’t close. And everyone would say “hey why everyone mad we never led so don’t matter grrrr”

There seems to be a real stand still in recruiting or transfers. Keeping our class and signing them would be great but we still have room and need immediate help. Surely things pick up soon at least on the transfer portion.

The transfer portal window hasn’t even officially opened yet.
