Sure. But it doesn't make sense to call out Bama for having bad games and conveniently leave out ours.
Mizzou was absolutely a struggle win. We've had exactly 1 struggle win. Kent was not a struggle win, we never trailed in that game, and won by three scores. We should have won by 5 scores but we still won by 3. We had backups in the game in the 4th.
Alabama had two struggle wins, where it literally came down to the final plays of the game. There was no garbage time for backups, it came all the way down to the wire, against inferior talent. And now an actual loss to put on top of the two struggle wins.
Look, I am a believer in Hendon Hooker, I was a beliver in him last year when I was following Stet's stats and his metamorphosis, right there at the top every week with Stet was Hooker. I have known he is legit. Tenn's problem is they are a mediocre team overall. Yes, Hooker is good enough to single handedly make a mediocre team into a great team and carry them on his back. He's good enough to turn a 7 win team into a 10 win team. But they are not championship caliber. This win over bama, while huge for Tenn, isn't as much of an accomplishment as people are making it out to be. As state above, Bama has damn near lost to two other mediocre teams this season, and now a real actual loss. Hell, Bama might get beat again by Ole Miss. 2022 Bama is not the Bama that people used to ask "how many NFL teams could Bama beat?".

Good post. I agree for the most part. I don't think Tenn is a mediocre team overall, as you state, no more than Bama is, BUT without those 2 QBs those teams are just above average( keep in mind there's what 130 other teams in the group). I agree completely with this:
The Vols aren't as good as that win would suggest. That said: their offense is a heck of a yard stick to measure our defense by. If we hold them to under 24 point's I think it bodes very well for our defense against OSU if it comes to that.
