Nobody knows? Google said we are 15, behind half the SEC.

Doesn’t help with Tennessee filling these kids heads every year that they’ll be a heisman qb and win it all. If I had a dollar for every time I heard they have the best qb …


Crazy, fans hyping up their players is the problem. Only happens at Tennessee.

It’s been debt fueled consumerism to feed the market.

I’m not convinced these tariffs were even a good thing to do. But it’s not crazy. It’s a shift in the economic direction since 1980. But not unheard of. The average tariff is something like the 20% on the EU, which is 5% higher than what it was leading up to 1980. The Asian nations are seeing higher because that’s where trade shifted with slave wages.
Manufacturing as a percentage of jobs is a third of what it was in 1980. Total, it’s half.

The barrel isn’t bigger is it? It’s still under the max required, just shaped, with more mass occurring in the sweet spot.

It’s really dumb to do this near an airport. That’s the primary cause of this accident. People make mistakes, minimize shots on goal.

If only we would have lost at home in our last game.

We have one loss. If we lose to Georgia, then it's an argument, and the SoS will jump. And that's if Ole Miss makes it by Miss State and @Florida with Lagway.

Ole Miss should've forfeited that Georgia game for being so collectively dumb they stormed the field 30 seconds early.

I don't have efficiency stats, but per google the first two things that came up is first in the SEC in pts/game and first in something ESPN calls stop rate. Also looks like we are top 5 in the nation in every other defensive team stat. It's a great defense. I didn't scroll down to LSU to compare.

There's more to looking good than a lot of points. Tennessee's defense is good. LSU should give it a try.
Tennessee lose to Georgia, Vandy gives us a scare on the road. We could lose that one. Heupel is not a good road coach.

They still haven't fixed the flopping, which was and still is a big, sad problem.

Maybe if we all pulled together to do the same thing something good might be done about it.
It was a pretty tame, slow rush. I think it's ok if you let the other team have time to get off the field.

Holding should be a 5 yards penalty for one. It's clearly a lever they use to tilt games.
Weather channel just showed it survived with limited damage.

These programs are making money. Players deserve to get paid for making them that money. If you don't get paid what was agreed, then yes, stop working. Every single one of us would do the same. My work isn't free.

Boy, let me tell you about Tennessee sports. If it wasn't for the CWS this year and Bama two years ago, I'd have a hard time telling you about a time we didn't fall on our face in the last 20 years.

This isn't the biggest game, but it is at Oklahoma. I would not liquidate the bank account.
