That’s how this board works


I mean you're not too far off but there are favorites here. We have a 1000 alts who belong to other fanbases who in turn blame us for their bad behavior. While only about 5 legit active posters.

Yes, that is the way it works. Tennessee fans are as bad at football as their team.

So tell me why it only applies to others? When we beat someone at the first of the year we're told how they finish is all that matters.

The fact that we haven't murdered everyone should be proof we're not.

90% of the people on this board in 2022 are sidewalk boomer trolls.

I mean 95% (being generous) of the content on this board is shitposting and trolling, so yeah. There are 2, maybe 3, non troll threads on the front page at any given time.

There was a time a few years ago when there were more (number wise) serious posters who were fun to talk legit ball with but I feel like every season things degrade a little more. There's always been the trolling and shitposting and it's always outnumbered serious discussion by a lot but I think at some point a lot of us kinda gave in and more than a few I don't see around anymore.

I know my own tolerance has lessened after years of dealing with people who were always trolling. I hate it too because I do miss being able to have those sane discussion in between the shitfests.

100%

I just don’t post here as much because, quite frankly, it gets old never being able to have sane discussions about anything

Dooley Butch and Pruitt....but we beat a top 10 ranked spurrier SC team so you are wrong. We will beat multiple top 10 opponents this year. What will kentfloppy do?

They were #11 when you beat them. Very close.

Tennessee vs Top 10 opponents
He's wrong but because it's 0-39. South Carolina was #11 when they played.

Tennessee's last win against a top 10 team was Georgia in 2006.


A good percentage of those losses are accounted for by Alabama alone.

Just sayin'.

the only ranking that counts is the last one

UTee’s win over SC is more impressive because they finished #4

That was probably Utah's toughest game of the season. Doubtful they lose 2 more but 9-3 will see them ranked at years end.

Incorrect. VOLS beat #4 South Carolina in 2013.


#4 in what poll?

They were 11th when you played them. They peaked at 6th, lost to UGA, fell to 12th, struggled against UCF and Kentucky, falling to 14th, then after a big win over Arky reached 11th.

Then Tennessee won and they dropped to 20th.

Oh, just a minor little poll thrown around by a few second rate news organizations. It’s called the AP poll. Have you heard of it?
