Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[jave36]

Why are you saying eff anyone here who suffers from chronic pain?? I suffer from chronic pain. Eff you!

Ya I thought the same thing. Bad enough people suffer, now he's piling on?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Every 10-2 but us apparently according to the negas

Not sure if folks have simmed out the season, but there aren't near enough 11-1+ teams by the end of the season (the average is about 5 such teams....) to push out a 10-2 SEC team.

I hope you're right...I really do.

Spent the afternoon taking my mom to doctor appointments. Listened to Swain on the radio. They spent part of the afternoon discussing how we could miss the playoffs at 10-2. WTF? Before the season, everyone said 10-2 would make the playoffs. Now they're saying we could be left out at 10-2, and that if Bama beats LSU, they'd get in ahead of us. They said our head-to-head likely wouldn't matter because Bama would have "more quality wins". Someone make this make sense. We should be in before Bama, dammit.

No need to discuss it. We’ll be 11-1

I've never heard anyone correlate back issues to crunches.

Not saying crunches necessarily caused the issues (I did 200-1500 a day as a teenager, so who knows if I wrecked things). But I have a deterioriated disc now, so hanging leg raises and other convex exercises are now best to avoid.

My PT suggested it and it's done wonders only keeping my back in neutral or concave postures.

Still working lower core, but without putting my back in questionable postures...pretty much anything convex/with a rolled lower back.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I hate how everyone is assuming we lose to UGA. Our defense hasn’t allowed 20 points in a game all season, and Beck is turnover prone. It’s a pretty disrespectful take imnsho

We CAN beat them, even at Athens...but Nico, the WRs and OL absolutely have to finally play up to their ability.

I think we can do it, but I have great doubts...we have not done it yet, and doing it against a Kirby defense in Athens is a big ask.

It would be glorious...legendary...an all-time classic Volunteer win.

The over 3.5 FG for Steelers/giants cashed in first 18 minutes of the game

Sick of talking about 10-2


Talk about where we will be ranked at 11-1

Based on the assumption sec won’t get more than 3 teams in and I think we get 4. Beginning of season I woulda said Uga, Texas, Bama, vols. Now I’m goin uga, Texas, Vols, Tamu. Bama and lsu both miss at 9-3.

Every time I see someone talk about us being 10-2 I think we've already lost 2. We could just as easily end up 11-1 as 10-2, but no one talks about us at 11-1.

We will learn a lot more about both the Vols and Dogs in the next two weeks.
Does UT see improved Oline, WR, and QB play to blowout two inferior opponents at home.
Does UGA dominate UF in Jacksonville and Ole Miss in Oxford.
Do either the Vols or Dogs suffer any major injuries in the next two weeks?
Inquiring minds want to know.

I think I was more surprised that it was Swain saying it.

No. 1 baby!

 

[Go Fight Win]

Bro if we end up somehow at #1 going into the playoffs I’m dropping more money than god to get down there for the games

 

[drylo]

Ahhhh….I wouldn’t understand. Because of TV ratings we play a lot of night games.

That 7:30 kickoff would really make that home loss to Brock Vandegriff go down easier.

OM a trap game if kiffy has some tricks up his sleeve

They have the bvs loser mentality going on. We will be 11-1

 

[WesTnVol]

Win the next game. That is all the team can do. All the 10-2, 11-1 talk is for fans and talking heads.
In 1998 the media so badly want UCLA in during the final 1-2 games of the regular season. If they had beaten USC but they didn’t.
Focus on what you can control

Exactly. We have two SEC games to play to get the O back up to Vol standards. The D is strong. The kicking game is good. No doubt in my mind that 11-1 is on the table and doable.

 

[JT3]

Gotta see it to believe it at this point.

GIVE. ME. THIS


Us vs Boise St in the final 4.

Sampson vs Jeanty

No. We want seed 5-8 so we get a home playoff game in Neyland

I learned my lesson in 2001..never look ahead.

I agree, but I think 12-1 with SEC championship

 

[SpringBokVol]

I think it’s a disadvantage to play in the sec championship game.
