I'm not too worried about TN vs Ohio State, Michigan, Clemson, or any other team not in the SEC at this point. They aren't on the schedule and we have to beat the teams on the schedule to get into the CFB to potentially face one of those other teams.

I do think if Tillman can go you play him tomorrow and you put him through the paces a bit for a few series. He needs to shake the rust off and he needs to get the full speed game time reps under his belt to build the confidence back that he's healed up ahead of Kentucky/Georgia.

Hell if he goes off for 200+ and a few TDs he'll be right back in the mix for leading WR in the SEC. Hyatt has 595 yards right now, Tillman is sitting at 246 so one big time game and he's right back in the mix.
 
If players really do make that much at Tennessee, and there's no reason that they shouldn't with how much merchandise our fans buy and how much they support the program, then the word will get out to other players across the country and top recruits.
This is why I think the talk of college football becoming a semi-pro/farm league is ridiculous. The value comes completely from the association with the schools and the built in fandom. The game is changing with NIL, but this is what’s best for the players. They are the ones who deserve it most anyway. Screw Dabo and his kind who pretend players shouldn’t get paid.

NIL has not ruined the passion as is clear by what is happening with us this year. The players on this team will be back in the locker room smoking cigars with pride 20 years from now too.
 
The team that I hate almost as much as any SEC team so I don’t wanna give the satisfaction of speaking their name..lol.

They are just as good as us on offense, but they have a top 5 defense also. They are what we will be after we get an average top 5 class for 7 years.


I don't see anybody beating that team this year....but I hope somebody does.

You mean the Buck Nuts? Nah Vols by Fiddy.
 
That guy is a complete tool. Look up ass-hat in the dictionary and his picture is on full display. He's a turd.

I would have never guessed that someone described as a “tool”, “ass-hat” and “turd” would be tied to Barstool. I mean Portnoy is such an upstanding individual himself, totally not an absolute douche 😐
 
OK, let me express a little BVS. Did anybody watch the Bama game replay last night on the SEC Network? They do the announcement after a Bama score, “Due to time constraints we move ahead in the action” and omit a beautiful Tennessee touchdown. Subsequently they spend ten minutes on the 3rd down or 4th down officials debate. Who edited this? On a positive note they did call out the offensive pass interference committed by the Tide’s #7.
SEC Network is owned by ESPN and ESPN hates us!
 
Tillman probably shouldn't play tomorrow, but I hope Hadden and Charles are able to. They need as many reps as possible if they're going to improve by the postseason.
If Tillman is healed up I’d love for him to get a few snaps to get the “rust” off. But I won’t be surprised to not see him.
