Tennessee is one of the most talented teams in the country. Talent wise maybe even top 5 imo
Based on what? I know it's not based on what's happened in the games. Cause UT hasn't had a quality win since the 90's.

I would say we are top 10-15 in talent, but top 5 is pushing it for sure.
Alabama
LSU
Ohio St
Georgia
Oklahoma
Clemson
FSU
USC
Are all more talented than TN.
Then you have teams like Florida, Auburn, A&M, Oregon, UCLA, Michigan and Notre Dame that are in the same realm.
We as TN fans are so excited to finally be fielding a team for the first time in a decade that isn't either talent insufficient or extremely young so we think that means we have the most talent in the country.
I'll give us 8-15 range overall talent which is light years better then the 40-50 range we were in 2013.
The reason why we are ranked 8th is the country is we combine that top 15 level talent with a lot of it having 2 years of starting experience and a pretty decent schedule.
10-2 is a very likely W/L record for TN this year.
