Also for the early season haters... Pearce with 3.5 sacks leads the team right now.

Last year he was sitting at 7 at this point in the season, so maybe the slower start this season means he has a strong finish. We've had 2 bye weeks in the last 5 weeks so that should have the team as fresh as possible!

But he has had zero impact. We need to rework his NIL.

Im confused on why Texas would be a given for playoff even with 2 losses. Who would they have beaten? Their best win would be Michigan, if they lose to A&M.

Storylines and TV ratings just like March Madness. They won’t admit to it but if we can all accept it we won’t be surprised.

Has anyone watched "Ancient Apocalypse Season 2"

My wife loves that show. I find it...mehly speculative and grasping, but I get the appeal.

She also loves Ancient Aliens and often gets the 2 mixed up 🤣


Meanwhile I just want to watch Action Bronson and Friends Watch Ancient Aliens

Keep the bcs and take the top 4, 8, 12 or whatever top arbitrary number you want outside the conference winners. The selection committee is a reality show for television. Every year is a different rationale to placate for certain “brands” to be in the playoff.

This is a problem. Even when they published their criterion, they invented some ad hoc more "important" requirements in coming to their decision, that happened to mimic national media campaigning. A "bad loss" is one such example.

Got to get the first half offense figured out, and makes big plays in the passing game when it’s there along with consistency from the offensive line.

We’ve got a national championship caliber defense. Offense has to do their part

The only problem with the BCS is that it doesn’t allow the wiggle room to setup matchups and storylines for television. The committee lends much more freedom to rig sh!t, which is nice.

The amount of people I’ve seen saying Zach Bryan shouldn’t get to play a concert in Neyland just because he isn’t from TN is the dumbest **** I’ve ever seen.

A drunk racist charged with multiple felonies for throwing chairs off a rooftop nearly killing cops - No problem

Some guy from another state? OH DEAR LAWDIE GET OUT THE PITCHFORKS

Priorities 😅😅😅

Kept saying “it means more to Morgan”

I’m sitting there laughing because if you knew the guy personally (I don’t, but have a friend that went to Gibbs that knows things about him)

Dude only cares about the money and fame…does not give a **** about UT.
“He wears UT gear” yeahhhhhh to make money

I don't care if you want mindless computers or biaser human picking the "best teams"...

Just dear god don't give the ACC and Big 12 a guaranteed top 4 spot. Complete and utter BS given the current inequities.

I'd also do away with all byes. Too much of an advantage when voting has to occur to choose who gets in. Which is why we need a rule-based playoff seeding system, like y'know, every single pro sport has figured out 😒🤔😒

Nope, I’m still gonna go with winning. I really think that’s what we need to do. All these other things people are mentioning are nice but call me old fashioned I still believe that winning should’ve be our priority.

Well It maybe crazy but if Zach Bryan is a drunk, racist killing cops with chairs that’s probably what people are objecting to, not that he’s from out of state.

We’re close. Let’s put ourselves in position this November!

This is why I've been so confident in our team all season. While people are worried about the offense I knew defense wins championships. As long as our defense is the best in the country we'll be fine. All the offense has to do is improve. We don't need to be world beaters offensively to win with a defense like this.
