USC has made an SEC title game more recently than Tennessee and has way fewer losses to Vandy over the last 20 years.

Since 2022, only Tennessee, UGA, Bama and Texas have 10 plus wins against ranked opponents and we were just in the playoffs last year and narrowly missed the 4 team playoffs in 2022.

That means that since Heupel's second season with the Vols, we are in the very top tier of the SEC with Bama, UGA and Texas.

You can argue all that you want, but the numbers prove it.

Youre not in the top tier of anything.

Championships are what matters.

Both UTs are made for each other.

USC is a dogshit football program. The SEC title game appearance wasn’t bragging it was showing just how bad Tennessee has been this century. Heupel hasn’t won anything of significance.

Please don't go quite easily in the stands over in Neyland West this year after you choke in your season opener again LSU fans. We expect our other venue to be loud ffs.

No he thought he was more than he was worth and ended up getting less money because no other schools were willing to match what we were paying him.

Heupel played him perfectly and we upgraded with the NCAA 's most productive passer these last two years with Joey freaking Football.

For those that are interested, here's the REAL deal....

Nah if you make the playoffs you need to win at least one. Especially with the expanded playoffs.

We was set to make 3.1 million on a likely playoff team if he showed expected improvement in year 2 as a starter. Instead he is making 1.2 with a team that will struggle to make a bowl game this year.
