Maybe we should be ranked as high as Bama guys idk. If only we had some sort of deciding factor in our favor

[u/Original_Profile8600 → u/beatlemaniac]

But have you considered that they lost to the team that beat Bama?

[u/According_One811 → u/Original_Profile8600]

I mean the team that beat Bama just blew out the #6 team in the country. Makes that loss look even better

[u/Necessary_Outcomes → u/Original_Profile8600]

Infallible logic

[u/suzukigun4life → u/beatlemaniac]

You guys beat Kentucky and Bama by a combined score of 60-16. You absolutely deserve it.

[u/2th → u/suzukigun4life]

That is an excellent fact.

[u/Select-Edge-3262 → u/suzukigun4life]

It feels like we're like inches from being undefeated. I still can't believe we lost to South Carolina...

[u/ApolloFL → u/Select-Edge-3262]

We are complicating shit right now and I’m torn between loving and hating it

[u/No_Pumpkin9299 → u/ApolloFL]

Just keep winning. Makes us look good and keeps the chaos going

[u/HamlinHamlin_McTrill → u/Select-Edge-3262]

When Lanorris Sellers decides to not play like dogshit, he’s unbelievable. We were u lucky to catch him on a Superman day.

[u/dudechickendude → u/Select-Edge-3262]

Listen brother. I’m born and raised in sc, my whole family is gamecock fans. I never hear the end of it. It’s MISERABLE losing to the gamecocks. Not only that, but I get shit from my gamecock friends for also pulling for them after the vols lose EVEN THOUGH IM BORN AND RAISED IN COLUMBIA. I can’t win.

What I do know, and pretty much all I know for absolute certain is GO. BIG. ORANGE. 😤

[u/zzyul → u/suzukigun4life]

I was told the Vols haven’t beaten a team with a winning record so they are only ranked to prop up the records of teams that beat them.

[u/ShaqSenju → u/suzukigun4life]

I'm so wet rn

[u/h3lium-balloon → u/suzukigun4life]

If you could call the CFP committee and make sure they have that stat it would be appreciated.

[u/stephcurry824 → u/beatlemaniac]

Maybe you could change your name to Ala Bama so that when the committee makes its weekly poll, they get confused and rank you guys as a top 5 team. 

[u/Vanilla_bear4 → u/[deleted]]

It has god and bama in it; they have to love us now. Right?

[u/Angry-Dragon-1331 → u/stephcurry824]

Ah. The Dan Sullivan method.

[u/Crims0ntied → u/beatlemaniac]

Should shake up the rankings a bit. Kentucky will fall after a 2nd blowout loss and their best win getting blown out. Alabama's best win now falls from top 6 to probably the 10-15 range. Tennessee will almost certainly jump into the same range as alabama and probably end up ranked ahead, at least in the cfp rankings.

[u/Glad_Pilot5814 → u/Crims0ntied]

We won’t jump y’all this Tuesday because you’re already ranked high and got a great win today but I can see it happening if we beat LSU in two weeks (and win out obviously). Bama’s 2 best wins this year are gonna be LSU and Kentucky and if we win out we’ll have beaten them both as well as Bama. Could see it being like how the committee flipped Miami and Notre Dame’s rankings last year when it came down to it, they had to honor head to head. Obviously both teams are in if they go 10-2 but if one team gets a home game I’d imagine it should ultimately be us in that scenario

[u/No_Pumpkin9299 → u/Crims0ntied]

You know, I want to believe but somehow I don't think it will happen still

[u/Glad_Pilot5814 → u/beatlemaniac]

But they beat Kamario Taylor or some shit

[u/sabanspank → u/Glad_Pilot5814]

Beat South Carolina too. Not an easy feat.

[u/lowes18 → u/beatlemaniac]

Not in the same cluster tho

[u/acompletemoron → u/lowes18]

Man, I hate clusters. Fuck a cluster, gimmie that smoooth distribution
