Going 8 years without a winning SEC season is almost as bad as going through all of history without winning anything at all.

How do you decide which one is the worst ever?

A storied program like Tennessee hasn't finished above .500 in 7 seasons, in the obviously "weak" SEC east, it's quite remarkable.

Y'all seem to have had a lot of those lately.

It's starting to look like a trend.

I think most unbiased fans can see Tennessee is trending up

And the point of this thread is, USCe couldn't beat us with their best team ever with one of our worst, and it's hilarious

But we beat you 3/5 with our less than best teams, that's even better, right?

Point of thread, who would have thought, Tennessee would be an SEC East bottom feeder for the better part of a decade.

It's fascinating.

Didnt you hear?They are media darlings....why? Because of recruiting, but I keep reminding them (for their own good) of Ron Zook who was one of the best recruiters and stockpiled talent on Spurriers staff and also left a great defense for Urban as seniors...but lasted 3.5 yrs. at UF.

But now...on the eve of the season actually starting...the HC Butchy is skeered I guess...he is making sure everyone knows he has the youngest team in the country and its a process and by God they are nowhere close to being where they need to be....where in the frick do they belong Butchy? On the Blue Ridge tending their stills? And he also said they're building a program brick by brick, excuses by excuses.

Like someone said, you beat Dooley. Everyone beat Dooley, you are not special.

Hell, if you had said this in the 90s/early 00s people would think you were crazy. But it happened. Luckily it looks to be coming to a close very soon.

Would Tennessee still be below .500 in the SEC East for past 7 seasons?

Yeah, it doesn't have anything to do with all our returning starters, solid QB that most in the SEC don't have at this point, solid defense with a good mix of talent and experience, much needed stability and continuity for the first time in a few years, or momentum towards the end of last season. only recruiting

If our worst stretch in our entire history is a string of 7 loss seasons, well then I'm okay with it. All teams have down periods, and most have lower lows than ours. For example, 0 win seasons and things like that

If they don't rebound this year it's time to move on. I mean it's an awful school in a horrendous town with terrible fans that doesn't win football games.
