Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[SpringBokVol]

We lose to UGA and we go to 14/15 - not even first one out. WE will get hammered.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I would sacrifice your left nut just to win.

Joke's on you, that thing was sacrificed years ago.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

This playoff committee definitely has less respect for the SEC than previous committees. It's a joke that the Big 10 has 4 of the top 5 spots with piss poor strength of schedule. I can't wait till the games get played. I want the committee to have the SEC teams that make the playoffs to match up with the Big 10 teams. We're gonna be so motivated to expose them. Penn State and Indiana are total frauds.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Penn State and Texas lost to ranked teams but have beat no ranked team. We lost to unrank team (barely) and beat Bama who is in the playoff hunt. Yet, we are number 7. Never get respect.

Sometimes you just have to beat respect in to some people!! I like the challenge..gonna be fun!

 

[GoodTimeVol]

Well the CFP committee certainly doubts us, looks like this team needs to prove them wrong. Not like they needed more motivation

 

[MarcoVol]

This is like a game thread when the opposing team has a good drive to start the game

 

[Orange.]

Hopefully this will be another big game from the Alabama Transfer TE, can't spell his name correctly. Rather not take my chances on the spelling Patrol coming through.

Well played. Kit-sel-man.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

Still WAY too early to worry too much. Obviously win and you're in. Even at 10-2, Indiana will lose, and the chances of everyone in the Top 12-15 winning out are almost non-existent.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Beating 4-5 Utah by 1 point with help from the conference officials? That’s some bad eyes.

A lot of it is expectations. They expected the Vols to look a certain way. We haven't looked that way.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Be cool if Arkansas could beat Texas...
Also be cool if Kansas could beat BYU ...this weekend.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I think they're probably pre-factoring in a loss to GA.

 

[Jack Burton]

Georgia first team out, they will be motivated.

That’s the story they’re setting up. They want to spin it as UGA has to win to get in and use it as motivation to knock Tennessee out.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I wonder where we would be if the BCS was still in play instead of bias committee?

 

[DD4ME]

Call this my grain of salt post. Their tears will be saltier...take what is owed to us, cause no one will give it

 

[tnvols72]

A lot of it is expectations. They expected the Vols to look a certain way. We haven't looked that way.

Struggles to score against bad team plus the Ark loss is why they doubt this team.

 

[DD4ME]

Lol

 

[tnhunter 10]

 

[engineerVOL]

They’ll be motivated bc they’re playing the Vols, at home, at night

We will have our motivations, too. A lot to prove, I’m sure the Tennessee players feel disrespected, too.

 

[Adam Sandler]

It really depends on two things: UGA's crowd and whether UGA can get away with uncalled PI and holding.

They will be loud. The team will play way better than they have the past 4 games. They will get a favorable whistle.

I do think this is the one game we may give up 20 points in, but not sure how much more. 24 sounds like a good line, but who knows.

 

[knoxvol52]

Heather Dinich projection this morning was nearly spot on, like I said she has a way into the committee room that feeds her information.

Only thing she had wrong was she had Georgia where Mississippi was and Tennessee @#7 and Indiana @# 8.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Yes it does matter what other teams do

Maybe. But you’d need pure chaos the last 3 weeks and I don’t see it. Indiana jumping us for no apparent reason is them basically admitting if both of us lose to Georgia and Ohio State on the road, Indiana is still in.

 

[Adam Sandler]

Nico did not practice today per AP. Which isn't shocking.

So he practiced yesterday but not today? Not sure what to think of that.

 

[engineerVOL]

Why am I watching Duke and Kentucky. They’re coaches look like young doofuses.

 

[engineerVOL]

So he practiced yesterday but not today? Not sure what to think of that.

Well it says he didn’t practice yesterday just dressed, so no change?

 

[JCP201]

Struggles to score against bad team plus the Ark loss is why they doubt this team.

I thought great defense was suppose to be respected. Certainly watched Ohio State, Texas and others struggle to beat bad teams.
