Recruiting Football Talk VIII

10-2 will very likely have UT in the playoff. By this graphic, UT has an 89% chance to make the playoff by season’s end. We’re in a good spot. Enjoy the idle week and rest up, y’all.

What about Navy or Army? They are undefeated and the toughest team they play left is ND.

Navy has Golesh and ND. Army just has ND.
Then they obviously play each other.

Would be glorious to see.

I have always wondered how the CFP committee would treat a hypothetical undefeated Army or Navy team going into that game. The Army-Navy game takes place exactly one week before the CFP first round games take place.
 
That's because Tennessee had a bad coach in most of those years. Dooley, Jones and Pruitt.🤦🤦🤦🤦

I look towards the future not dwell on the past.
Same. It's some kind of weird superstition that looks back at completely different/previous teams that wore the UT uniform, most under completely different coaching staffs, against completely different/previous teams wearing the UF uniform, most under completely different coaching staffs. It's like being convinced your wife is cheating on you because other wives have cheated at times throughout history.

Maybe you just show faith in your wife until SHE gives you reason to worry.
 

Doesn’t the UGA/ Bama game feel low-stakes? I mean, fans are on edge and going crazy, but this game doesn’t feel like it really impacts the rest of the season. A 12-team playoff gives everybody one loss to play with—and probably gives these two teams two losses to burn.

Not sure I like this playoff thing.
 
Until we do it...it's just talk, and talk ain't worth 💩
Then talk about previous teams, against previous teams, is worth less than nothing. It has MUCH LESS to do with the conversation than expectations of THIS UT team against THIS UF team. Yet the fear-posts keep popping up every time UF is mentioned.

I would agree at least that that talk is worthless.

It blows my mind how many people and talking heads think our offense is air-raid. The are totally ignorant.
One of the “Reasons Heupel will never win at an elite level” when he was hired was that “His offense can’t win time of possession!” Top notch analysis from our usuals. Along with “Doesn’t utilize the running game and TE position.” Throw in the “Can’t field a representative defense with this pace.” for the capper. 😏
 
I really think auburn beats them. They're not going to have a freak outing with 5 turnovers again.

It's unlikely, but I could possibly see Oklahoma going through a Nebraska-like drought.

Texas has a better chance of being consistently relevant in the SEC than Oklahoma does. Ok has a great history and tradition but the SEC doesn't care. They will be like Auburn, always someone's little brother. They can have a great season once a decade but the rest of the time, they'll be chasing the big boys. They should've stayed in the Big 12 and dominated that conference. Suckers!!!

There are probably better words to describe than 'poverty'. Beside, drawing corollary between UF and those impoverished - is a slight to those who are less fortunate.

I would say Florida is straight dog ****.
And that’s not a slight to dog ****?

A poverty program is just that — a program that has nothing. A poverty team, I guess, would be a team that has nothing. I called Ole Miss a poverty program a few pages back… never even played in an SEC championship game — in exclusive company with Vandy, UK and Texas A&M. Have a black bear as a mascot now because… why not, I guess? A football program most famous for its fans partying outside of the stadium (“we might lose the game, but we never lost a tailgate”… 😂). All they have is a few claimed national titles from 60+ years ago in seasons where they finished ranked behind Minnesota. And now they’re painting their end zones with a recruiting slogan from social media, like a program with no worthwhile tradition would do. That’s what it means to be a poverty program.
