...said 90% of this board 5 years ago. Ironically the Bama fans were the only ones besides Tennessee fans who said they would be back.

How damn good does it feel Tennessee fans? Left for dead and here you are winning 2 of 3 vs Bama, 2 of 3 vs Florida, and in the playoffs while both sit at home. About to take over the Horseshoe. There may not be a more fired up and passionate fan base in football right now than Big Orange.

I'm actually a little happy for you guys. Damn it.

You lost to Vandy and were destroyed by 6-6 Oklahoma.

I'm aware. Which is why we are not in the playoffs. Your point?

Feels good. It’s been a long, dark road.

I don’t think we’re quite National Championship caliber yet, but we’re leagues better than where we were before Heupel came in. And who knows… some lucky breaks and the ball bouncing our way…


I (somewhat jokingly) have always said that you can’t question a VOLS fan’s loyalty… because any bandwagoners have jumped from the wagon a long, long time ago.

Are we crying over not being in the playoffs?

By the way, you lost to them by three touchdowns and we lost on a last minute pick six. We also scored more than 3 points. I mean, who only scores 3 points these days? Damn.

Have an upvote, sir.

Feels great but there is still work to do. The Vol dark ages of 2009-2020, Kiffin, Dooley, Butch, and Pruitt, terrible ADs, the Tennessee Trashcan, “opportunity is no where”, must beat Vandy to get a shitty Bowl game……all that will be in the past and hopefully this is an awakening of a sleeping Giant. And not just in Football.

Gives us Vol fans a lot to be appreciative of the last few years under Big Josh, Barnes, Vitello, Danny White. Go Big Orange!

This post maybe be the most proof positive one yet of just how badly some are taking being left out of the CFP. Never thought I would live to see the day Tide fans complimented the Vols.

I would not want to play OSU after their last game...

Good luck, UT. I hope UT wins, but OSU is a caged animal.

Wait…. Auburn fan…. Throwing shade about losing to Vanderbilt and Oklahoma….the same as Auburn did…. And even worse, at home in Jordan-Hare…

Maybe you can ask Santa for some self-awareness.

If a Bama fan cries about why they should be in instead of Indiana or SMU, it's a melt. If a Bama fan doesn't cry and wishes another SEC team well, it's a melt. What exactly do you guys want?

What a tremendous moral victory.

I hope this helps soothe you as you celebrate yet another losing season for the barn.


Oh and we beat the frick out of you.

A caged animal with a makeshift O-line. I like the Vols in this one.

WE WANT ORDER KEPT.
BAMA HATING AUBURN AND TENNESSEE. LSU HATING BAMA'S SUCCESS. UGA HATING FLORIDA AND AUBURN. BOTH MISS. SCHOOLS MAINTAINING THEIR BROTHERLY HATRED FOR EACH OTHER... and apparently A&M continuing their hatred of UT's dominance over them, which incidentally we never really understood until this year but we like it because of the hatred involved. Get my drift?
