Recruiting Football Talk VIII

And then LSU lost to Florida. LSU isn't as good as was thought.

The biggest question is why Ole Miss is ranked where they are when they have the worst two losses of the four SEC team at 8-2.

Probably because Kiffin has a podcast with his daughter.... & their offense has put up more points. Our defense has been stellar but it seems these incredible brains don't value defensive stats.

Props to my Father. Still hate he named me Cosmo. Must have been drunk

Probably out at the bar, late at night, talking to drunk girls....

If Tennessee wins out they should be in...... But I'm not sure the committee will make it that simple. This was exactly what I feared would happen if we lost to Georgia. All we can control is what we can control. If the committee leaves us out we know we are held to a different standard. Have to adjust accordingly for next year.

Ole miss is one of the top defenses isn't it?

 

[BearCat204]

Lots of football left. Vols just need to handle our business and let the chips fall where they may

Try again next year.

Just please give me Colorado in a bowl game, I can at least stomach that just because I’ll get to see 10+ sacks on Sanders.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

I'm giving my all here. I have a friend who helps me with my Model A who works on Georgia Tech's Ramblin' Wreck and I asked him very nicely if he could let the team know that beating UGA would be doing me a huge favor. I also have some friends who are Florida fans and I told them I'd get them back if they could get the Gators to take down Ole Miss. So I'm trying to do my part.

 

[UTgrad2015]

Ok who is taking the ride with me on Saturday? Trying to decide on the dollar amount still. Doing my best to reverse jinx the Vols into the playoff picture

Fantastic idea. Put $100 on it.

 

[InVOLuntary]

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.

My mom who is dead is more reliable

What would happen if A&M beats Texas?

They should plummet.

I mean that’s an okay loss but they have zero wins and terrible SOS.

Same would apply if Bama spanks Texas in the championship game - at least it should but it won’t.

Worst case for us is Texas loses once but not twice

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Now why would the CFP give more credit for beating Michigan and put so many Big 10 teams and ND so high. I wonder.
College football is corrupt. There's way too much money involved for it to not be. The game I grew up loving, is gone. Greedy people suck.

 

[TrippieRedd]

At least Florida will be playing a little harder than usual since they need to get bowl eligible.

Same with OU

 

[jave36]

Boise potentially getting a bye is such a joke. What a dumb system. These academic morons having control over sports is so ridiculous.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Don’t understand how LSU is a great win if they just lost to Florida.

How does that make sense?

Because it's all Calvinball.

Great reference

Arkansas was listed as a notable win for Texas… yet when asked about Tennessee they mentioned the bad loss to Arkansas

 

[Rizzo924]

Ole miss is one of the top defenses isn't it?

They're #1 offense & 5th defense; UT is 4th & 2nd. So, yeah, they're up there but then so is UT in both categories. I dunno - I can't begin to see what the committee is seeing.

Beating the stuffing out of uga at home and usc and arky on the road is what they're seeing.

We have one single above average win, they have 3.

Really need them to lose to UF

 

[Volator]

One other point by keeping the B10 teams at the top and SEC below them, means the playoff games will be in the north and Midwest, cold weather games. Committee doing everything to favor B1G.

That's why I hated when heupel let off the gas at Oklahoma. Beating them by 20 on the road would have been considered a better win for us.

It’s time for KY to do this entire conference a solid and beat Texas this weekend

Dude, I hate to burst your bubble but CFB is no more or less corrupt. You’re just not 7 anymore.

Gotta love the NBA.

*spurs timeout ends*

OKC is up by 5. Spurs score once….OKC timeout.
