Why do we even post threads on the secrant?

I mean, nothing good ever comes of it. We have to be the most hated team in the SEC.

I've noticed it too. Kinda strange considering that we've been so shitty for the past few years. Maybe their jimmies are still rustled from when the Big Orange used to run roughshod over that arse back in the day.

I usually only start threads to brag or rustle some folks. Can't really have a worthwhile conversation on tRant anymore.

Yeah, the only time I start a thread on SECr anymore is to rile a fanbase up.
Recruiting forum is fairly civil, as is the SECot board.
I can't wait until we start beating arse again. I shall wreak havoc upon the SECrant.

I post on secrant to rustle jimmies. trolling will be more fun when UT becomes relevant next season.

Oh I plan to be a full blown a-hole when we return to glory, with like 8 alters,each more offensive than the next.

TBH, I think they realize things have changed. They knew before we were rising the CBJ and now with Dobbs they're recognizing that change is coming far more quickly than expected.
Prior to this and throughout the off-season, posters were full of praise for Jones. Hell, I remember lots of posters saying they like him. Early on this season they complimented our defense and again saying we were on the rise but also saying they didn't expect it for a few more years. Now though, we've found an offense, a QB who is really turning heads given his performance against Bama and SC, are looking at another stellar recruiting class, are finally seeing our young talent shine on the field, are returning TONS of talent and could very possibly wind up 8-5. And remember for all the praise they were giving Jones for putting us on the right track, most predicted 5-7 or worse. The fact that it looks like the future has come faster than anyone expected is having an impact.
Just look at the poster who was bitching about Jones, saying he didn't trust him, and generally dissing him. That is a completely different attitude than I've seen before. They know and they don't like what's happening - it threatens their status and recruiting far more than the notion that "you're almost there but still have about 2 years before you get there."
Also, don't underestimate the dumb and/or paranoid factor. I posted about Jimmy's tweet yesterday because I thought tRant would have fun with speculating about what the hell Hyam's could possibly be on about. Instead, they thought I was trolling and well you saw how it went.
Now that tRant is on edge and reading comprehension appears to be at an all time low, I think I'll skip making that mistake again unless something comes along that even tRant can't frick up.

I would say that the "Mizzou isn't southern, Mizzou doesn't belong" rhetoric combined with success in our first 3 years...I'd say Mizzou is the most hated team right now.

We have to be the most hated team in the SEC.
And that place is a a dumpster fire. Every now and then you can find a thread with good convo but the team boards are the best places right now.

While we aren't loved, we aren't the most hated. I feel like TAMU/Arky/LSU all have a lead on us in the hated category
Possibly bama but most ppl have resigned themselves to them being good
Ppl don't really like those DAMN Yankees from Missouri either

I wouldn't mind being hated if we were in the same place we were in the 90s, in fact I'd love it.
This last decade has been really tough for Tennessee fans.
