So you're bragging about this

Over beating a team with

4 wins




Not a good indication of anything iyam.

ETA: Truly elite teams that are "back" don't brag about things like this. They expect them.


Back to the back of the line with y'all.

About what? Your comment has nothing to do with what I said.

I just responded to the poster who said South Carolina had play makers on defense by noting that Carolina hasn't had a good defense since Muschamp took over. It's typically been in the bottom half of the country. Meanwhile Tennessee had a Top 25 defense last year and should be even better this season. You then arbitrarily injected Georgia St into the picture.

You're such a bad poster

But we did
One of our Defensive Lineman was a first round draft pick
And two others were all SEC. (one of them also drafted, the other is now a Junior)
So yes we had have playmakers on the defense

But this doesn’t mean much for the team

You understand there is a difference between statistics, and actual play on the field right? Muschamp hasn't had a "good defense" at USC mainly because of offensive struggles. You can't expect a team to lose the Time of possession battle every week and have a "good defense".

Do you even watch football and understand the most basic concepts in the game or do you just look at statistics to make your decisions about how good or bad a team is?

There's no reason to think Tennessee is on some upward trajectory.

See the thing is, we lost to those teams In 2018. So, beating them all the following year would be evidence of some kind of...upward trajectory, which was your whole point. You have been proven wrong so now you change the goalposts into the quality of the teams we beat, which is irrelevant regarding the current issue i.e. whether we improved from the year before or not. Suck me

You won 4 games last year you wish you were average

Bad to good is not one step. It takes a series of steps, including being average.

What trajectory is USC on? Because last time I checked you all wanted to fire your coach but are stuck with him til at least 2021. That really shows a lot of “upward trajectory” (sarcasm)

Our below average football team has a winning record vs. Tennessee since Spurrier's first year.

And we also don't have pie in the sky ideas about our team.

You sound like a Tennessee fan reaching into the past with some arbitrary timeline. What happened last year in the most recent game? We waxed that arse

I'm a data guy. I look at trends.

Trends say there is no reason to think Tennessee will be any better than the mediocre/average team that they've been since Fulmer was pushed out.

You “look at trends” yet disregard objective evidence that TN has improved over the past 3 years. Ok guy it’s been fun. I don’t argue with idiots. Peace.
