Thing is it really isn't this impossible scenario. Bama is a team the rebels could beat and LSU losing on the road to Arkansas wouldn't be shocking. Could Ole Miss hang with Georgia in Atlanta?

I think bama can be had and arky also seems to give LSU trouble but if ga loses this year it will be to us. I really think we are the only realistic chance to beat them. Maybe osu but I doubt it. We looked terrible Saturday no doubt, but it is difficult to beat the same team twice in one year.......especially a team that can score like we can. You cannot turn the ball over against us. We are a scary matchup for anyone.

I can accept TCU ahead of us when they weren't ahead of Bama last week. I don't have any issue in stating UGA pretty much handled us. Defensively, they were nothing short of impressive.

Alabama has lost two games on final possessions, and at the time last week, it was just one loss in what is now an instant classic...

So that's fine with me I can make that make sense to me.

All the SOS, SOR, wins against ranked teams or teams with winning records etc... All the stats... That will all come in to play on that final ranking.

So until then.. Handle our business. Take whatever chaos that occurs elsewhere with a smile... And hopefully we'll be playing a big 10 team in Tempe.

Everything else is just noise.

I truly think we’re in if we win these last 3. There’s lots of football left. Just take it one game at a time.

Yeah. I mean I feel pretty good about our chances. But the reality is we don't necessarily control or destiny today, so be aware of that and focus on what we can control.

With the rankings the way they are, here’s a watching guide and who to root for with 3 games left of the season.

Obviously we want our Vols to bum rush everyone, UGA to win out and OSU-Michigan will take care of themselves. TCU (3 realistic shots to get taken down) and the PAC12 (Oregon - 3 shots and especially USC - 1 shot and UCLA - 1 shot) are the biggest threats to our CFP hopes.

Nov 12
  • Texas over TCU
  • Washington over Oregon
Nov 19
  • Baylor over TCU
  • Utah over Oregon
  • USC over UCLA
Nov 26
  • Michigan making CJ Strout looking ordinary
  • Oregon State over Oregon
  • Notre Dame over USC

A one-loss Big12 or a 2-loss PAC12 champion ain’t going in. If things fall our way, we won’t need conference Championship weekend to clear things up!

College football is chaos and loving every minute of it! 13-1 GBO!

I have noticed around Middle Tennessee that I don't see as much bama crap as I have in the past.....really a nice change. The band wagon riders seem to have thrown a wheel. Mostly Orange now....the way it should be.

I’ve noticed that too.. just a small amount of stickers on cars.. I’m guessing because they are hard to scrape off 😂
