With all the should TN be in the Big 6 discussion this week I thought it would be interesting to look at TN's successes broken down over time.

I think this shows that TN like most programs has peaks and valleys and that, while the valley we just recently started climbing out of was as deep as the grand canyon, we likely will hit a peak again soon, hopefully.

Below are our win percentages versus the rest of CFB in different timeframes from today.

All Time -10th
Last 100 - 8th
Last 75 - 8th
Last 50 - 14th
Last 25 years - 14th
Last 20 - 19th
Last 15 - 36th
Last 10 -59th
Last 5 - 75th!
Last 3 - 58th (tied with Florida)
Last 2 - 43rd
Last year - 30th

Snapshots of Note
1926-2001 (76 Years) - #1
1989-2004 - 4th
5 years before Butch - 85th!!!!!!

Very interesting to break it down this way.

Probably not for a program that no matter how you break it down is terrible

Hard to find a snapshot in USC history that looks good isn't it?

I agree. That is humiliating for even USCe.

Do you see the trend? It's going back up! I think we are about to hit a peak and you know what happens when TN hits their stride, BAMA tanks!

The streaky TSIO is about to shift.

Lyle will never beat Saban dude. You have lost your mind. You beat a bunch of shite teams to end the year again and then Tenner rejoices all offseason. UTk is an irrelevant has been.

I have never seen a fanbase so consistently posting about their history. We get it. You used to be good for a long time, but you're not anymore.

You've lost 51 games since 08.

Remember that time when it was your best win for the past 9 years?

Oh wait, it still is your best win for the past 9 years. South fricking Carolina is your best win.

This breakdown obviously doesn't ignore how damn bad we've been.

I mean I have a very recent snapshot that shows us as almost in triple digits for God's sake.

But I will say I can show that we are quickly turning that around and can show that was more of an outlier and the norm will LIKELY, not certainly but likely take back over and we will get back to a top 10-20 win % type program (don't think we will see another 75 year period as the #1 program.

I love how the shite talking goes here.

Tennessee fan: You can't beat our shitty coach
Carolina fan: You can't beat our shitty team

Self depreciating shite talk. OK carry on
