Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Jack Burton]

Heather Dinich I believe has Bama as the first team out. She’s usually almost right on. I would not put it past them to make sure Bama has a shot to get in. C’mon Auburn. Bury them.

At least in the near term, Alabama will always need one more loss than the rest of college football teams. Until the Saban glow wears off.

 

[Revived2002]

Me too, but only because there’s so much on the line.

Yep - biggest Tennessee-Vandy game in ages

I recall them knocking us out of bowl eligibility a few times in the dark era - this would feel worse. But I think we get them. Heupel should pull out all the stops.

This USC/UCLA game is boring as hell.

It did give us this

I want IU, ND or Penn St 1st round.

Be awfully cold on Dec 21 At those places…now, if they played in Knoxville, I’d be happy.

After watching the holding no-calls on Pearce Jr. Then what the refs called on us vs UTEP. I mean, it gets old. The officiating is ridiculous.

The running into call, shouldve been roughing.

Oh, Gosh. Heather Dinich’s playoff prediction has UT as a 9 seed going back to Athens to play 8 seed Georgia…

I can’t imagine Sankey would let that happen

Georgia wins the SECC IMO, so I don’t think that’s likely

Should’ve kicked it out of bounds

Don’t worry, if UGA wins the SECCG they’ll move to # 2. Winner of Big 10 CG, if it’s Oregon/Ohio St., will be # 1.

What was the reason that we got conservative with play calling at Oklahoma?

You'd have to ask.coach. Like I said, not interested in debating the merit of the strategy for that gams because there's no way to know what staying aggressive would have yielded. Just saying it seemed to have lingering effects.

Ryan Williams come be a Vol next year

Seconded

 

[jmacvols1]

....a couple of bad officiating calls that could have affected the outcome of a game....

Have seen Big 10 fans post that SEC teams couldn’t handle a December game up north.

Who else remembers in 2015 when UT and Mizzou played when it was about 15-20 degrees in Columbia?

 

[Adam Sandler]

Bama boards dream come true

Pics?

This is what I think it looks like too… but drawing Uga in Athens would suck ass

While getting in is great, this would flat out suck

Good defense, solid running game.

Right Tennessee isnt built to play in a Bg10 environment. Who are these clowns?

Loved Heath as a kid. He was my Josh Dobbs back in the day.

Auburn playing for bowl eligibility next week.

Normally,I would be against that but Alabama getting that fourth L would be sweet.

 

[drvenner]

Best Saturday ever?

Not yet but this one is up there.

 

[SoilVol]

As it currently stands, the Big12 Championship game would be against Arizona State and Iowa State.

Both ASU and ISU are ranked below Tulane and Army who play for the AAC Championship. (Tulane's 2 losses are Kansas State and at Oklahoma)

So, feasibly, the AAC champion would get in as the 12-seed over the Big12 champion as it currently stands. Will see what happens when the rankings change because ASU will be moving up and Army will be moving down. Will be curious to see if they move ASU above Tulane.

 

[drvenner]

This Vandy game is huge.

Biggest game since '01 SECCG
