"40 year-old mullet man orange"

 

[Weezer]

Dude just stuttered his way through saying what it took Bama to lose “17 penalties, muffed punt, ridiculous pass interference call, mismanaged clock”

So many excuses

And they still ignore we were missing 4 starters.

Hadden and Charles not playing.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I respect his opinion the least. Dude has no idea what he's doing.

And he's absolutely terrible at picking games.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Hadden and Charles not playing.

Oh man

63- 7 VOLS

Bunch of “Little Man Syndrome” in this thread today…looking for reasons to feel offended or slighted.

Game Day is simply stating facts. A 1-loss TN is down the pecking order from some of these other schools. But there is still definitely a path should we stumble.

Instead of looking for reasons to be ticked, I’m just enjoying the fact that we are all over College Game Day. What a year we are having!

Bull ****. Gameday is stating opinions. They're not the CFP committee so what they say is not fact.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Gonna get a lot of young guys some time today. Especially on defense.

And who cares about what game day thinks.

The CFP polls come out and they will change their opinion again.

Hadden and Charles not playing.

Good. Want them ready for UK or UGA.

Our 2023 and 2024 classes are now composed of:

15 bluechips (4/5*s)
10 non-bluechips

For a "2-class" bluechip ratio of 60%. 2024 so far is 75% bluechips but it is very early.

Dear god help everyone if we go from our current BCR of 47% to 60+%.


Also of note from the 2022 BCR article. Who does this sound like?

 

[Jack Burton]

And honestly, we shouldn’t be upset at all with a loss. House money, no one expected anything NEARLY like this!

Exactly. With winning expectations continue to rise so it’s easy to forget what our hopes were back in early September.

 

[Devo182]

Been reading KY board. Bet y’all didn’t realize they are better than Bama at defense, Wr, and Qb did you? My gosh I hope we run them out of the stadium.

Hiiiiiiilarious

Iirc my post from just yesterday completely destroyed their defensive argument. And Gibbs < Rodriguez, especially behind their TRASH OL is next-level funny.

Man, they are adorable.

 

[UTMVol76]

Oh, and after we beat Kentucky and when first CFP ranking comes out on 11/01, these here TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERS will be NUMBER 1 going into this little matchup in Athens Georgia!

GBO

 

[peaygolf]

Didn't we lose that game late?

22-10 vols

 

[TheRain]

Yup...

 

[Ron Swanson]

 

[drvenner]

Go Big Orange!!

 

[headhunter15]

A successful day is hanging 50+ and get out injury free today.

Think it depends on how we lose the UGA game and how we look winning the other games. Lose close game to UGA on the road and win decisively vs UK, USCe, Vandy and it will be hard to keep us out. Especially considering the peripherals (i.e. exciting brand of football, best offense, crazy fan support).

Yeah, there is some truth to it. But, halfway through the season there are still a lot of undefeated teams and “what ifs”. A 1 loss Tennessee likely isn’t getting in over undefeated TCU or a one loss PAC-12 champ in my personal opinion. We won’t get in over Clemson if they win the ACC even if Clemson has one loss. Ohio State or Michigan will get for sure. Just a lot of teams still in the running. We need some help from these other weak conferences. The top dawgs need to get upset.

I think Bear is just terrible on camera, but his picks aren't that terrible. He is about 10% less than betting experts success rates though so I do think Gameday could get someone better up there, but they probably also won’t be great on camera. I’d just take whoever the “betting guy” is for gameday off camera.

For reference, Bear is just under 54% success on his career picks. Expert bettors are closer to 60-65%.

So Bear would be a losing bettor, since iirc, with the vig, a winning bettor must win 56.5% or 57.5% of their bets just to profit.

Lmfao.

(To be fair there are very very very few long term winners...but still smdh)

What happened there last Saturday??

WWTFA!

53% is the magic number.

So many excuses

Literally all their own fault

And yet we left 14-21 points on the field on wide open guys. Got SCREWED on the PI call AND the awful spot on the 2nd to last play.

Smdh these people are sorry sacks.
