Come on man, throw us a bone on these. That's close enough.

Tide, Rebs, and Dores are the only ones on this board who know anything about football. I think everyone else is like 12 years old.

Every previous season is linked at the top of WG's thread. It's at the top of the page right now, so find it yourself you lazy pricks.
The "prediction" is an average of all the predictions submitted by whatever fans take the time to do it.
Tennessee's is not some biased number, y'all have a lot of posters in all of them.

Very interesting op.
Something about this makes me feel good about things.

I felt bad for y'all cause there was one poster who kept predicting 12-0 that was screwing with the average. I actually did leave him out once because he literally threw off your average by an entire game, but I only did that because WG left him off of his official count.

If it has a lot of posters it's giant red flag that they're not really ours.

That's y'alls problem. All I've got is what's in the threads.

IOW. You know they're trolls but still wanted to use it to troll us. I gotcha. We kinda knew that the moment we saw it.

I remember when the biggest insult opposing fanbases would try to pin on Bama fans was that we were delusional.
My how the tables have turned.
No, y'all are still delusional. Bama bailed you out by being so good. Bama fans could have said 12-0 every year and you would have only been off by 5 games.

It's not delusional if it's reality, Shiela.

Just 5 straight over estimations
One behind Tennessee
Yep, LSU fans have overestimated our team 5 of 6 years to Auburn fan's 4 of 6. Still, our margin of error is better.
Embarrassing....

So yeah, Petrino really screwed with Arky's total with that 2012 season, and John L. Smith didn't help in 2013.

Seems like Butch actually wants Tennessee fans to overestimate their team. Every year he spends the entire offseason talking them up. Volnation gets whipped into such a frenzy, it almost feels like they have paid posters over there to drive expectations higher. I guess it sells season tickets.
