I trust Donde and Tony V baby!

Not happy but satisfied for now

I'm thrilled about it. We moved to 7-1 & 4-1.
Great game for Dylan Sampson. Most TDs in a season
by a RB in Vols history so far. That's hard to believe with
all the great RBs that have been through the program.

Work to be done but we are in a solid spot for sure!

Good evening all. Vols win. Y'all enjoy the rest of the weekend.

My goodness .... Texas A&M got curbed stomped by SC tonight.
Final was 44-20. So glad we missed playing SC this year.

Best 3 loss team in country and dangerous as all get out…glad we don’t get them next year either…

MS State is the next Vols victim coming up next Saturday Night.

Then Georgia in Athens Nov. 16th. UTEP in K-town after GA.
Close out the season with Vanderbilt in Nashville.
I'm really hopeful we can beat Candy this year.

Yeah we lucked out. We were due to play them in Columbia too. I would have been more scared of that game than the Georgia game.

They're the scariest team along w/Vandy this year in the conference.

Damn. I hate it when I agree with Chris Doering about the state of Tennessee football…

He is usually pretty rational

What do you agree with him on? You didn't say.

Missed scoring opportunities.

Vols have to work on getting better from the starting gate.

Lots of good things happened for us for a change. A&M, Clemson, Iowa State, Kansas State, and Pitt all go down. Those are teams we needed to lose. If I had to guess what the top 12 of the CFP will look like it would be something like this. A lot of the teams are interchangeable right now and a lot will be sorted out over the next couple of weeks so the first week of rankings is meaningless until the picture is more clear. Also, I don’t think the rankings will take into account the automatic byes. They are just going to be listing the top teams in their eyes. As you can see, seeding is going to be extremely affected by this automatic byes nonsense. There are at least 6 teams more deserving of a bye over BYU or Big 12 champ but that’s the system we have unfortunately…

1 Oregon (bye)
2 Georgia (bye)
3 Ohio State
4 Miami (bye)
5 Texas
6 Tennessee
7 Indiana
8 Penn State
9 Notre Dame
10 BYU (bye)
11 Alabama
12 Boise State

Teams on the outside:

SMU
Texas A&M
LSU
Ole Miss
Pitt
Iowa State
Clemson

Personally, I have us ranked 6th (7 seed due to the automatic bye given to the Big 12 that will slide everyone down a spot).

Came to the dark side and included ND…lol
List looks very solid to me…I bet they rank one of those Big Ten schools over us and we start at 7. I don’t think Alabama will be included but starting to get dicey at 11 already which is why I like our chances even if we finish 10-2!

They are ranking what they think it will be at end of year…we are 6 or 7 currently for sure…I don’t see us at any lower than the 8-9 game when it’s all said and done, even if we take another loss.

Well a lot of good happened in Notre Dame’s favor today. A&M, Clemson, and Iowa State all lost so that slides them into the field imo.

Yeah think I said last week they were getting in regardless as long as they didn’t take another loss. Is there room for them now if they do lose another…highly doubtful…but I wouldn’t close the door on it either. Some wacky things could happen and any 10-2 team may look good in another 4 weeks.
