That's about right

We're getting close to the CFP rankings anyway, so AP doesn't matter

Just win

So we drop 3 spots (deserved) but Bama stays the same? I’m sorry, what did I miss that they don’t deserve the same amount of drop?

Surprised bama didn’t drop as well. Lingering saban effect

They're Alabama and we're not. They get the benefit of the doubt and we don't. All it boils down to.

AP 11. LSU got quite the bump for beating OM.

That is complete horse .

How do you drop Tennessee and not Bama? What an effing joke.

 

[JP_UT_O&W]

Also, keeping bama high justifies keeping Georgia in top 5…I guess.

It’s all mental gymnastics

 

[Orange_Crush]

Bama being higher is to our benefit. It'll help our SOS and selection committee votes after we beat them.

LSU replaced us. It's recency bias.

There's no effectual difference between a troll and a never-ending sad-sack whiner.

You do you. Don’t have to read my posts if you don’t like them. Just because I don’t fart orange colored rainbows doesn’t make me a troll or a whiner. Have a good day!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

We must be watching different teams. They were open.

People are f'n STUPID..

They are mad, so they are just spewing all the dumb that goes through their mind.

 

[GVol1966]

One other thing. I dont think these receivers are super talented.

YAC: They can make big plays only if you hit them in stride.

Brazzell made a big play then ghosted. If a guy is giving max effort, and making a play. Why does he disappear? How can a QB get in rythm. We have talent, but it isnt getting utilized?

We'd rather send the hospital ward out there

Brazzell got hammered on that big play across the middle.
He probably wasn’t right the rest of the night.
Nico’s throws cause a good portion of the hammering the WR,s take .
How can they get in a rythem and get open consistently when they are hurting?

 

[UTSuave’]

Crazy perspective

 

[GVol1966]

It is a stretch, because he had led them to 10 points in 2.5 quarters. No way to know what would have happened, but I disagree that we likely lose. What if we had not lost Pili when we did?

You have the right to your opinion

 

[Weezer]

The way pollsters vote, we could beat Bama next week and still be a spot below them in the polls.

I thought they for sure were gonna throw a flag on that hit on Brazzell. Helluva catch.

I seem to recall that happening....

 

[Hardy]

Don't think this is true. Thought there was 5OT game years ago which is why they changed the OT rules

Penn state Illinois 2021. 9OT

 

[JP_UT_O&W]

In a surprise no one would’ve seen in the preseason or week 1 or week 2 or week 3…

Tennessee’s defensive efficiency: #1
Tennessee’s offensive efficiency: #47

 

[GVol1966]

Sweet (about the video, not the WRs) share the link!

It’s on you tube. Just search blue chip breakdown. He does a good job.

 

[JP_UT_O&W]

Bama being higher is to our benefit. It'll help our SOS and selection committee votes after we beat them.

Sure hope so!

They haven’t proven anything outside that first quarter.

But that was more recent than our highlights.

Glad it’s in Neyland. Hope we can capitalize on their defensive woes

 

[knoxvol52]

Army at #23 and Navy at #25 great accomplishment for both midway through the CF season.

 

[Weezer]

Find a way to fix the OL and we fix a lot.
