tennessee is considered a blue blood program?

Only by adults who know something about football.


Tennessee is 10th all time in wins, 12th in winning %, 32nd in conference championships, 13th in consensus AA, 12th in weeks ranked, and 12th in National Champions. Also have a losing record versus both their biggest rivals.

Saying they’re a blue blood is saying they’re on the same level as Alabama, USC, Ohio St., Oklahoma etc. which they are not. Even if you considered them a blue blood before, they weren’t undeniably one and are certainly not anymore.

They aren't even ahead of us in multiple rankings.

You just supported my statement. Where do those rankings put us in the SEC? Second all-time behind Alabama. I didn't say we were the best. Second in the SEC is blue blood enough for me.
