whereas Tennessee got its arse kicked in its 2 losses


Lost to #1 UGA and were upset by the hottest team in the country.

Bama lost head to head to the Vols (giving up 50 points) and lost to an average LSU team.

Not really close.

I get why Tenn fans are upset but this is some next level bullshite. South Carolina came into the game having just lost to florida 38-6.

South Carolina was not even CLOSE to being the hottest team in the country, and Tennessee was not upset, they were beat the hell up by 25 points.

This is what denial looks like. You can't get past the fact that having 63 points hung on you by a 7-4 team takes you completely out of the discussion. You had an arse whipping that was historic in its proportion. In its 120 year history, Alabama has never given up close to that many points.

You want to treat the South Carolina loss like just another loss. Every knowledgable fan outside of the Tennessee fan base knows you can't do that.

Let’s take a look:

UT got beat by the hottest team in the country by 4 TDS.

UT was the hottest team in the country when they beat Alabama by 3 points.


Had your team beaten South Carolina they would have a decent chance to go to the playoffs.
