None of it matters but just what peeps are saying:

Doering says Bryce Young is gonna throw for 500 yards. Bama wins.

Burns says close game that Bama wins on a FG.

Two ways to look at this...

1. For public perception and fan satisfaction, this is the most important game.
2. For the playoffs, beating GA is far more important.

We can lose to Bama, win out (including the SEC tourney), and still be guaranteed a playoff spot. If we lose to GA, the narrative is out of our control.

I disagree. If we lose today, we need to beat Georgia and probably Alabama again in the SECG to get in. 2 losses would make it too tough.

If we win today, lose to Georgia, and sit out the SECG (assuming Georgia goes 12-0), I think we have a good shot of getting in at 11-1.

I disagree. If we are actually talking about the playoff, winning this game tomorrow opens up an extra route. Sure, any SEC team that wins all of its games will get in. But if we win tomorrow and then lose to (only) UGA, we are very likely in without having to play Bama a second time.
If we lose, we’ll have to beat UGA and Bama.

I'm not worried about today, but hopefully we win tomorrow!

If Tillman is 80%, you play him. This is the biggest game of the year. We can beat everyone without Tillman but need him for UGA. We win this weekend , even with a loss to Georgia, we likely get in the playoff. This game means a lot. Not only because it’s the Toothless inbreds, but for our season.

Is Tillman at 80% better than Keaton at 100?

15-0 baby.

You only play Tillman if Tillman feels comfortable playing and he’s been 100% medically cleared, not 80%.

Back early I see. We're honored.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Young is playing.

Sunday comes early on Volnation.

 

[MarcoVol]

Young is playing.

Gonna be an exciting game!

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Line has moved to +8 on DK. Young must've been cleared to play.

I think we win, regardless.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I hope Young does play. He's gonna be protecting his shoulder and 2nd-guessing his throws, not to mention a little rusty. It could take a qtr for him to get dialed in or pulled out of the game. We have to make them pay in the 1st qtr, if he plays.

Byron Young to Bryce Young

Or this:

 

[VolsnCards5]

In their Normal offense, how often does Bama have designed Qb runs? Or even zone reads?

can’t see them risking him on playa like that

 

[Ron Swanson]

Young is playing.

Good. There won’t be any Bama excuses when the Vols win.

 

[BP4Prez]

Young is playing.

Would the Hadden news move this?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Would the Hadden news move this?

No.
It's most likely Young being cleared.
It's also sharps who let the public bet the line down and now they see value in Bama.

So throw soup at a painting that is protected by glass and then glue one hand to the wall.. really showed those oil people..

Yep. Vegas doesn’t play the games.

I mean, we were a mid-single digit favorite against LSU and we won by 27. They do a good job setting lines, but they can’t see the future.

Guys it’s a sign… my daughter was just born this morning!!! She came quickly because she also hates those bammer gumps!

Excited to watch our first game together on day 2 of her precious life on earth

He’s the best receiver in the SEC and top five in the nation.
