Vanderbilt, Alabama, and Kentucky all hate Tennessee
But, there are some one-sided rivalries
We say that our rival is UT
UT says that theirs is Bama
Bama says that theirs is Auburn

re: Rank the SEC from Favorite to Least Favorite

Surprising, considering that our over/under is 6.5, leaning towards 7. Doesn't seem to be in line with last place. And, we are much better than UK and Arkansas. But, we are not winning the SEC, so who cares whether it is 50-1 or 1000-1.

re: Pro "Choice"? Read this, it will change your mind. Who killed Junior?

Abortion is first-degree murder and should be treated as such in all circumstances. Human life should never be killed merely for convenience or because it reminds the woman of a crime committed to her. Two wrongs do not make a right in that case.
Tell me liberals, why do you all believe in legalized murder (abortion) and legalized theft (welfare)?

If that is what happens, it will be very telling, but I am expecting that game to be a close dogfight.

Fine, I wrote it, but it was not a plug for any blog. It was just a fanpost, which anyone can write, on the Vanderbilt SBN (Anchor of Gold). I get it that fans of other SEC fans don't want us to keep winning, and it is possible that we could regress somewhat, but we will be in a bowl game (look at our schedule). A couple more wins are definitely possibilities. We will all learn a lot about this team Week 2 when we play Ole Miss at home.

The team that Vanderbilt's current situation is most similar to and why that team was underestimated last year (from the perspective of a former fan of the other team)

How the SEC Should Expand If It NEEDS 16
Posted by Matt1 on 7/1/14 at 11:50 pm
The ACC is too stable right now, as enticing as it would be to take Duke and UNC, but that does not mean that expansion is a bad idea. Instead, I would look at the Big 12 and try to get OU and OSU to join together. They would both join the SEC West, along with Mizzou, while Bama and Auburn would move to the East.
At that point, permanent crossover opponents would be unnecessary, as The Third Saturday in October and The Deep South's Oldest Rivalry (the only reasons they were kept in the first place) would be divisional games. The only one that would be grandfathered in would be Alabama-LSU. Unless we are OK with some former traditional rivalries only playing once every 8 years (and only once every 16 in each stadium), we would have to expand to 9 conference games, something I would only support in a 16-team SEC.
