Vols to #6 in AP poll, jumped by Indiana.

you actually haven’t watched them play this season.

They,re damn good.

How are you complaining? They just beat last years National Champion and we lost to Arkansas.

Tennessee needs to continue to improve under Nico, or a team like Indiana will end our season.

Tennessee hitting on all cylinders can beat anybody. But our defense is slowly fraying while our offense improves every week. Need both to go up and not be flat.
IU is damned good against who? Maybe Michigan? Who else?

They best OSU and I’m listening, until then, I’m not impressed. They have played a bunch of opponents like we did on Saturday.
 
Now that UGA lost to Ole Miss, we cannot afford to lose to them. If we lise to UGA now we are out.
I still don’t agree. There’s far too many games left to make that call. I could argue Miami losing might’ve been worse for us than UGA losing. I’m assuming we’re going to beat UGA so it doesn’t matter. If we don’t then we can revisit.
 
Penn State also says hello when it comes to unwarranted love.

Yep, before the season started you could pencil Penn State into the playoff field based on that joke schedule, and the same can be said for a pretty good Indiana team that has played nobody. If Ohio State plays down to its competition the way they have much of the year and the Indiana game is relatively close, IU is a stone lock, giving the pathetic Big 10 four teams when there might not be more than that in the conference that are even half decent. I'd sign right now for a playoff matchup against IU or PSU.

They still have to play at Ohio State. We’ll see if they are for real or just another pretender.

Ohio State has had a tendency to play down to its competition. Even a relatively close game won't hurt Indiana with the heavily Big 10 biased national media and "committee".

"Last year's national champions" are an awful football team, as they have proven over and over this season. Arkansas would be an 8-win team if they played a soft Big 10 schedule.

So they will play down to the 5th ranked team in the country? Got it. I’m sure Ryan Day will make sure they do that.

The blind homerism from many on this board is incredible. Zero ability to have a rational discussion.
 
Heupel is not helping our cause by playing so conservative toward the end of games. Every point matters in todays playoff system. You're a fool if you think these playoff ADs and commissioners are actually sitting and watching all the games, they will look and see UT 33 - MSst 14 or they could just have just as easily seen 40-14. IT MATTERS, listen to what they talk about. Run the score up, pad the stats, every game. Teams like Ole Miss and Penn State do it every chance they get.
Scoring at the end of the game the other night wouldn't matter at all

Wrong. Look at the IU schedule and just try watching the Big 10, which is the equivalent to paint drying. They are the "5th ranked team" due to that comical schedule.
 
I cannot be the only one that doesn't see the point in the AP poll anymore? It's really the most irrelevant it has ever been.

Oh I agree. The Big 10 is getting 4 in and it doesn’t matter what anybody else in the country does. But I’m not sure Indiana will be close to Ohio St. Should be interesting.
 
The “Alabama is better than Tennessee even though Tennessee beat them “ national media tune has already been struck up. Very sickening.
 
It will certainly be a tough task to get in with 2 losses unless other teams around the country lose.

Honestly I would hate to be a 2 loss team that had to play in Atlanta. Because there is a good chance you will drop below 2 loss SEC teams that were idle.
 
How's that dumb? You think our offense has been good? Take off the orange glasses man, our offense is a liability. It is what it is.

8-1 and you guys are still crying about the offense.

Just because you’re never happy, don’t try to drag everyone else into your nonsense.
