Honest question. But why Ole Miss?

As many SEC teams as possible. Before this past weekend, Bama, Tennessee, Texas, looked like the most 3 surefire teams that would probably make it. With us losing, you now have a possible 5 when you add UGA and Ole Miss. If A&M beats Texas, things will get very interesting.

The original post of this arm of the conversation was stating Ole Miss as a team to put in over Tennessee. So my question was meant to ask why Ole Miss over us?

Gibson may have been a great player if he was at the right place. He looked pretty good for ohio state before he completely melted down.

One problem that will be difficult to overcome is the difference between the media darling and the media antagonist. So far the playoff committee seems enamored.

Media darlings in the playoffs race:
Texas
Bama
Georgia
Ole Miss
Indiana
BYU
Ohio State
Oregon

Sort of media favorites:
Miami
Colorado
Penn State
SMU

Media meh:
Texas A&M

Media antagonists:
Tennessee

What Tennessee needs most is for multiple media darlings to lose, some preferably more than once. What Tennessee also needs is for Vol Twitter to go dark. To run deep and silent like a hinter killer submarine. The less that the media hears from the Tennessee rabble, the better.

Just the thoughts of a playoff desperate VFL. (Not actually desperate, not gonna go negavol if we don’t make it). 🤠

14-2 🤠
is the new Orange

We should not drop behind Ole Miss...but the committee for some reason doesn't recognize Ole Miss' loss to UK a bad one..but for some reason is holding the Arkansas game against us. They got no balls so therefore we will be behind Ole Miss.

Heather Dinich has Tennessee ranked #11 and the 1st team out in the bracket predictions for tonight.

Out if all the talking heads, she is most reliable.

There should be 5 SEC teams. We are definitely a top 12 team. This guaranteed spot nonsense is millennial participation award stuff.

Florida will defeat Mississippi this weekend and Texas takes out A&M the next one.

May get lucky and Auburn takes out the Aggies this week.

Knowing Vols luck from previous years, we lose a game needed to stay in the hunt for something meaningful, we all come up with scenarios on how to get in just to get kicked in the beads.

Knowing our luck, all the wonky **** has already happened, now everyone will magically play clean football and 0 upsets happen.
