Not the game itself. SEC record for 2015. Whoever finishes higher in the division wins. Tie goes to the head to head matchup.

Loser has to wear the sig of the victors choosing (decide amongst yourselves) and the favorite team logo of the victors until the conclusion of the super bowl.

Any takers? I'll update any brave souls that accept to the OP once I get home.

This is tame compared to some of my other bets I've done.

I would do a ban bet like I did to Arkansas fans, but admins don't like ban bets

Seems like a cop out to me not to make this bet head to head considering Butch's streak on Spurrier. Just so you're aware.

Either way, I'm in.

Spurrier and that DL and unproven QB aren't going 8-4 or better. Jones and the Vols will.

That game will still count for one for the victor and none for the loser. It's still the most important game for this bet. It's not a cop out by any means. It takes away the fluke factor. If South Carolina beats TENNESSEE but still finishes behind them, tough shite. Same the other way around.

Idk why my phone insists on auto capitalizing TENNESSEE. And YALL

I like Joshua Dobbs a lot ... I truly believe he is the best QB in the conference this year and, perhaps, one of the best QBs in the country.

Jones has recruited well the past couple of years so there is talent there.

It's in Neyland.

UT will be favored to win that game IMHO, no matter what. Especially given Spurrier's propensity to blow the games against UT for whatever reason - I dunno why.

At the same time I am confident in SCAR's ability to score points. We've got players everywhere on offense.

SCAR's D ... I'm not so sure. We're going to be greatly improved, especially by late in the season, but I think UT's offense is going to be potent this year.

Looking at the two schedules, SCAR has the tougher row to hoe.

South Carolina

vs UNC (Neutral field, Charlotte)
vs KY
at UGA
vs UCF
at Mizzou
vs LSU
vs Vandy
Off Week
at A&M
at UT
vs UF
vs The Citadel
vs taterheads

Tennessee

vs Bowling Green (Neutral field, Nashville)
vs Oklahoma
vs Western Carolina
at UF
vs Arkansas
vs UGA
Open Week
at Bama
at KY
vs SCAR
vs North Texas
at Mizzzou
vs Vandy

Non-conference

SCAR with the tougher non-conf schedule

Inter-divisional

UT goes to Bama, gets Arkansas at home. SCAR has LSU at home, goes to A&M. LSU and A&M are both going to be much tougher than anyone is giving them credit for ... but so is Arkansas probably so ... Draw.

Divisional

SCAR goes to UGA, UT has them at home.

Both go to Mizzou.

UT goes to UF early, SCAR catches them late at home.

Hmmmmmmm. I'd say it's a tougher draw for SCAR but not by much. The main difference being catching UF late when they are going to be much improved.

For the most part the two schedules balance. SCAR's non-conference schedule is tougher but that really doesn't play into this except for confidence purposes and wear and tear. I'd actually love to see UT beat Oklahoma.

Frick it ... I'm in. Count me in. What the heck, why not.

Go Cocks!

ETA: With regard to the schedule, and this bet, it really all comes down to the head-to-head and UT has a decided advantage there with the game being played in Neyland. The place will be crazy by the time we come in there but .... frick it, I'm still in.

Is it weird that I immediately started thinking about what game you were talking about? I assumed you couldn't be talking abut the actual super bowl and were referring to it in a negative term about someone wanting to be rivals with someone else.
