Has there ever been a tie in the AP before? That's crazy.

Yes. USC and Wake were just tied at 10

 

[ViperVol86]

Still too high. But I like it.

Yeah I’m thinking easy money for sure

If we are #1 in the playoff rankings come tuesday night we would still be in a great position to get into the playoffs even with a loss to UGA....has to be a close loss though.

I want to be #2 going in. Let UGA not feel disrespected. Give US the locker room material please.

I honestly think we’ll be #1 in the CFP rankings.

If you need locker room material for this game then you don’t need to be playing. These are games you live for

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Lol.

It’s down to 9.5 on DraftKings

I just came up with this yesterday, but we were like 7.6 points AHEAD OF our vegas spreads for the year. Iow if the spread was 5, we'd win by 12.6 on average.

That's now up to 10.2 points.

So, until Vegas learns better, take that 9 pt spread vs UGA and just call it a pick 'em 50/50 game

 

[Enki_Amenra]

A tie????

Huh???

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Tim Couch 2.0?

I don't understand you guys train of thought..

Levis has never accomplished anything to have the reputation he does...but Lorenzen and Couch both had really good college careers.

Levis is nothing like those two.

My oldest boy has respiratory problems and breathing through his mouth is easier on him, please think before you post!

absolutely, my apologies!

Need and help aren't mutually exclusive.

Did we need dark mod unis and a great crowd to beat uk by 38? No. But they did help.

Every little bit helps in a game this close. Any extra advantage...you take.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

We're only 28pts from 1st place. In comparison, 3rd place is 122pts behind us.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I don't know. My Gator fan SiL was at the game last night...and actually wearing orange. My daughter asked that we not mention his shirt though...baby steps.

Making converts..

 

[HalfullVol]

Feels like '98

 

[Devo182]

Wow

I haven't watched anything but the highlights so far. This looks like a real doozy to watch

From the pre-game light show and creepy Rocky Top til the final second ticked off it was a beeeeeautiful sight to behold!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He played that ball like a DB is suppose to play it. Imagine how many picks these DBs could have if they would just turn and look for the ball.

It has been so vexxing...like those two awful floaters that Bryce Young threw up and the guys never even looked...AR and Slovis had a few like that also.

 

[gordonr24]

Locked myself in with two bets on FanDuel this morning. +11.5 and ML for the good guys

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He wants to. Says he’d go crazy with nothing to do. He’s an ER doc but is starting to slow down his schedule. He only works maybe 12-14 days a month.

I can think of millions of fun things I would be doing instead of working at 70 if had health and Doctor money..lol.

[nicksjuzunk]

I know I’m the chief Levi’s hater, but can anyone with a reasonable thought see him above a 3rd round pick?
I wouldn’t touch him at all. He’s produced nothing

 

[cbcollins]

Any poll...and I mean ANY poll that does not have Tennessee currently ranked #1 is not worth a lick of salt. It is asinine to look at a.) the product on the field and b.) the schedules that have been played and come to the conclusion that anyone else should be ranked ahead of Tennessee. The only reason anyone could possibly have Ohio St. or Georgia ranked ahead of Tennessee at this point is either due to

1.) historical bias (ohio st and georgia have won recent national championships) or
2.) preseason rankings (which are worthless IMO, for example, Notre Dame was #5 in preseason rankings)

Neither of those are how teams should be ranked. Regardless, I know this will all solve itself on Saturday. I just think its borderline comical how these pollsters are showing their a$$ right now.

 

[Volnut]

Which is even more of an indictment for the past few ADs

I can’t remember if it was Hamilton or Hart that said the reason UT wasn’t selling out games was because of the advent of high definition TV. Good times
