The Vols were supposed to be a 7-5 team this year with a D that needs a couple years and no QB.

He’s have a blast and not bothering a soul. I get that Vandy only has fans every couple of decades and are unfamiliar with them but that’s just a fan enjoying the game.

It’s funny to me that the money goes to the visiting team. I actually thought that was a myth until I looked it up.
There is a fund already set aside to cover it. White invited the fans down from the Jumbotron late in the game.
Kick them out because a player or his agent may have contacted a couple of schools? It’s not like they were trying to play NFL players.

Isn’t BYU a mountain west school?

The game has been simplified to an alarming degree.
You don’t believe the athletes are bigger, stronger, faster than they were in the 80s, 90s, early 2000s?
You don’t believe that coaches having to coach schemes and plug and play, teach schemes and systems to 1-3 and done guys is harder than just out talenting teams like they could before? You have to work with little depth, new faces, and constantly adapt like never before. The pressure is higher too?
And the game is no longer a scrum game, scheme and system overcome cheap shots, reviews fix many egregious calls, it’s no longer just about the helmet now.
Bama had a great run, they were able to game the system, stockpile guys and just put talent teams and ride the Saban process.

This is fricking hilarious
Went from 15 years of barely making a bowl to averaging 9+ wins a season, beating our rivals regularly, being disappointed in an 8 win season.
That would be competitive in the SEC correct?

A bit of post nut clarity?
The game is still the game. The athletes are better, the coaches are better, the game is cleaner. The game before 2001 was a simpler, more enjoyable product. But change happens. You keep up or you fall behind.
The Tennessee roster is a 40,000,000.00 plus team. The Vols were able to get back to a high level of competitiveness quickly because the game changed. We, as fans and the university adapted to the new reality quickly, quicker than most. The trick will be avoiding the letdown.
Bama is a bit behind the curb in the new way the game is played (roster management). They are 5-10 million away in NIL, they made a questionable hire for a coach, and don’t have the money or the vision/mindset to change. Saban should have stayed 2 more years and got them used to the money side of the new game but he didn’t.

Kentucky has too much schedule left to play.

Oh no, 500K. Lord knows Bama needs it. It’s like tipping them for beating them.

Blowout win by your team over Vandy. LSU loses by one in OT to Kentucky. You are busy screenshotting LSU’s board. The definition of rent free.
In fairness LSU fans were generally obnoxious twats until the lost to Kentucky.

Just move it to Monday night and be done with it.
Last year it was the secondary specifically and the Defense in general.
Hooker was a solid QB
Milton is still in the NFL
Nico wasn’t ready as a freshman and made a mistake as a sophomore.
Joey was an outstanding college quarterback when healthy.
This should be Nico’s last year with Brandon learning and getting ready this year. Nico got greedy and Tennessee moved on. It is what it is.
