We got an OG here! Not quite Gridscape days but still quite early. I would lurk occasionally back then but not very often so I didn't create an account for a couple years.

Also, holding out on getting internet until 2011 is impressive! You live in the country or just didn't care to have it? I don't really like internet other than for random info/knowledge, sports, news, reading books online and eventually streaming. Social media was cool for a couple of years in my mid 20's starting around 2005 with MySpace and then I started hating it by the time everyone in America had a Facebook account.

Not after their impressive win against no 12 today. They will jump them.

Agreed. Not sure how I feel about it. I understand that the committee will reward "hot" teams but I don't think that should necessarily come at the expense of head to head victories unless the losing team has a significantly better resume by the end of the regular season. And people need to GTFO with transitive property arguments as they don't apply to football, especially college.

I joined in my high school library to complain about Dooley in 2011. I’ve been lurking since I was in like 8th grade during the black uniform rumors in 2009.

I miss the stars to represent how many years you’ve been here. I only got to like 3 or 4 before they went away 😔

why are we not going to atlanta?

Just because? Horrible traffic? Because it's lost its Southern city charm?


Best answers I have. Seriously though, because we lost to UGA and they have the same conference record. Mixed with some head to head vs common opponent factors in relation to TX and A&M. I haven't bothered to read the details to understand those factors because I don't care to and I'm still used to the "gotta beat UGA to win the SEC East and play in ATL" mindset. Probably take a while for me to get past that way of thinking.

I read a lot and have a good vocabulary but had to look that up. Good word.

I feel you. Main reason I haven't deleted my social media completely is my wife.....that and all the pictures of us and our kids on there. Would be very tedious to transfer. But I wouldn't be able to go without internet even without the family. Too many free books and gotta watch my Vols.

Think I'm gonna skip out for a long while...VolNation isn't going to be any fun for a long time.

I hope the boys can somehow drag themselves out of this hole...but sadly I don't see it happening.

Library. Have Linked In. But no other SM.

I dunno, maybe I would. Hard to say.
