Not stating my predictions for this weekend's game. However, if the Vols lose to the Aggies this weekend and I am Butch Jones and Tennessee's AD, do I call the SEC Office and force Sankey gets his head out of the sand (for lack of an appropriate three letter word) and figures this scheduling out? (without LSU more or less giving up $5 million and having to pay USA $1.5 million compared to UF having to pay Presbyterian $500k)

I realize it makes UT look bad, but this would involve all 5 teams (A&M, Bama, UT, UF, and LSU) impacted by this "postponement" and is also a cross divisional game.

Arky will beat UF so this will be a nonissue

I definitely used the wrong word usage. Edited to just suggest force the SEC's hand.

This game in no way impacts Alabama. You're delusional if you think LSU is in contention for the SEC West title.

Oh sorry, you are delusional regardless; you're an L5U fan.

Even though its really unlikely that LSU wins out. 6-1 LSU would not go to the SEC championship over 7-1 Bama. That my friend is called a benefit. A benefit is a positive IMPACT.

You guys should just relish the extra rest you're going to get before the Alabama game. If that doesn't help put you over the top, then LSU fans need to embrace the mediocrity that the rest of us see LSU in.

Sorry LSU is getting screwed but this has nothing to do with Texas Aggies.

Tennessee should petition the SEC that their game with Alabama should be cancelled, to even things out.

Have you not been paying attention the last decade??
The world will stop spinning if the Gumps don't get to play UT every year. Nothing else matters!!!
