Which team on our schedule this year would you be most excited for a win against?

In order for me:

1. Alabama (It would feel so good to knock them out of the NC hunt.)
2. Florida (It's been awhile)
3. Oregon (payback is a b***h!)

All of them, in order or out of order.

I guess I read something else into your statement about what bottom tier BCS conference teams think like.

As bad as UT's record has been I don't consider them in the bottom tier of all BCS teams.

Nor do I. I was commenting that the posters mindset resembled that of a bottom of the conference team.

He said he would rather beat someone beside Bama because they have the best chance to win the NC in our conference. It appears his allegiance to the SEC trumps his allegiance to UT. Tennessee could go 3-9 but he's gonna pound his chest saying "SEC, SEC, SEC" as Bama brings home another one. That's crazy IMO

I agree it is crazy. But this place also blew up when aTm beat Bama last year. Why people take pride when a team, which isn't their own, beats a UT rival is beyond me.

See also Louisville beating UF.

I will cheer for UT as hard as I can every game.

But I am also an SEC fan.

If Tennessee goes 3-9, it is probably because we play better teams then everyone else around the country.

So when ND rolls into the NC game... And has played Rec teams week in and out... Yes, I want them to lose.

It isn't so much SEC pride, as it is these teams play weaker competition and I would like them to be fully aware of that.

Well considering they've won it the last million times I think it will be ok if Bama Georgia Florida SC A&M and LSU beat each other up and can't be technically crowned #1 because there's no playoff. But please don't ever wish Bama well. Being a Tennessee fan it doesn't even make sense dude.

I don't know what you can base my allegiance on and really make it stick. If we go 3-9 I won't eat for a month, nor will I sleep and my pets will hate me. And if Alabama wins the NC then I will say that at least it stays in the SEC.

I suspect that if I stopped at just wanting to beat florida and not mentioning Alabama and a NC and it staying in the SEC, then you might not have had a problem with it. But I read your posts and you fuss at everything.

If a top recruit is considering UT and Bama for the class of 2015, don't you think Bama's NC helps them more in recruiting this kid? Quite frankly, I could care less about keeping it in the SEC. I hate Bama, and I would be perfectly happy if they never won another game. I'm a fan of Tennessee more than the SEC.

Well, "dude", are you saying that you don't want Georgia Florida SC A&M and LSU to win it either. Are you one of those that believe if UT doesn't get a NC then no one in the SEC should get it either. Does that make you happy?

And I never WISHED that they would win a NC. This whole thread is a about each persons fairy land choice. I just picked one.
