I'm thinking a Bama win would give the Tide a higher ranking next year, which would benefit UT with strength-of-schedule. Otoh, a Bama win would boost their recruiting.Outside of Tennesee, I root for Michigan. But of course, no one compares to Tennessee. My metric is that I want whatever result is best for my vols. Alabama losing is probably best.
This works for me.Here's the formula I finally came up with, that I think is gonna work for me:
If it's a blowout, I want Bama to absolutely embarrass Michigan.
But if it's a close game, if no one is getting embarrassed, I want Michigan to beat the Gumps.
I can't fully explain the nuances of it, but this feels very satisfying to me, either way.
Heh.
Go Vols!
