Because we're America's team. The casual fan yearns for us to be good, Texas and football is as American as warm apple pie.

Texas was coming off a 5-7 season, unranked, and playing at 11am.

It's embarrassing that it was that close if anything.

Yessir, was a good day. Vocal Vol fans are a side effect, but still a good day.

Bama vs Texas was an 11am game and their starting QB went down in the first quarter. An overall ugly, boring game.
Not to mention Texas was still unranked at that point of the season. I'd imagine things would be different if they were both in the top 10 like this past saturday's game.

And they got it. Tennessee gained a lot of new sidewalk fans this weekend and national attention.

I was walking through the Fort Lauderdale airport yesterday and heard someone on his phone talking about which team will be the next Tennessee breakout type team. No joke.

What years was Tennessee the centerpiece of college football. In the 80s it was Miami, 90s it was the 3 Florida teams and Nebraska.

In a sense Spurrier was to Tennesse what Saban for the last 15 years has been to LSU. The wall that kept you from being the focal point of the college football universe. One year being the exception 1998(2019).

Same reason a Tennessee fan fresh off of a win vs Alabama would start a ratings smack thread to throw shade at Texas.

Much of top views is folks tuning in to see a team lose

Notre Dame football
Duke basketball

Top the list

Lot of B1G eyeballs are wanting to see Ohio State lose
Lot of b12 eyeballs are wanting to see Utx lose

Lot of non fan eyeballs want to see Top 5 teams play. Even with 2 losses the fact Bama is in 3 of the 5 games tells me they could slip into the CFP with 2 losses. Not many other schools can do that.

You New Kids On The Block are so desperate to claim something it's laughable. And sad.
