The only answer on SEC rant should be Tennessee. I hate most their posters, but they are original and big 6. Its Tennessee and its not even close.


UTjr can suck an egg, they don't get to come into the conference nearly 100 years later and claim UT

I don't know about Texas, but Tennessee has 2 national titles per the NCAA website.

Obviously it's the school that's constantly telling everyone they're the real UT.

One has been UT for over a 100 years

The other changed it’s name from TU to UT in the 1970’s and has parades for male students to lick dildos

This is a subject/topic that should NEVER be debated, NEVER be used as troll bait on this forum.

The real UT is The University of Tennessee.

The other one is UTa ... it's not the real one, it's UTa.

Just as the real Tigers are The LSU Tigers, the real Death Valley is in Baton Rouge.

(Nb4 real Carolina real USC whatever by the ACC trolls. Doesn't matter, couldn't give a frick less.)

Well, I would expect that Google is above the skill set of a limited intelligence Dawg. Since you are obviously too stupid to grasp the intricacies of navigating the Internet's most widely used seach engine, allow me to assist.

One calls themselves UTA

UTA

One calls themselves UT

UT

My mother always told me to help the handicapped whenever possible. I am assuming she would include mentally handicapped sidewalk fans of UGA.

Glad to help you.

I know that it's Winsipedia, but Tennessee literally has 2 National Championships. Every "National Championship" they claim was after the advent of the AP poll, including an embarrassing "Bama style" claim of USC's 1967 National Championship. They have two titles, debate a wall about that fact.

They're the real UT though. Texas can get bent.

We are worried about that other team from Texas this year.

Just call Texas "Texas." They are neither UT nor TU.

"UT" is Tennessee. They were a school before Texas was even a state.

"TU" is Tulane.

Not everyone gets to play in the big 12. Even Butch Jones would have done huge damage in that league with Dobbs at QB. Oklahoma barely escaped us with a win in 2015 two overtimes.

The answer is Tennessee obviously.

This is the dumbest subject. Can't get to Saturday fast enough to start the SZN and quit talking about dumb bs like this. The 'real' UT and if Texas is 'back' is media coked up bs.

The University of Tennessee is older than the state of Texas itself. The originial Tennessee Volunteers started the state of Texas by liberating it from Mexico. Also the SEC was literally founded in Knoxville, TN. But yea, Texas is the "real UT" lol
