    Congrats on the win

    Tennessee must be scared...

    Yes...but the mountain man's musket isn't rifled. Maybe we will put this on Davy for tomorrow's game...just in case.

    Davy Crockett is guarding his blue tick hound...and he's a pretty good shot, too.

    UT had an excellent nutritionist starting in 2007, but Butch Jones let her go in 2016. Pruitt brought in the nutritionist from Alabama with him when he came, so we should be good in that area. Jones flip flopped S&C coaches throughout his tenure, and I think that played a role in UT's injury...

    Finally here. It's game week. Bring on those vo

    Nice dig...but as you probably know...Tennessee is the original UT. They were founded before Tennessee was even a state (1794) and long before the state, or University of Texas existed. Not me...my Sunday is full, and Monday is a holiday...it may be Tuesday before I could come back to eat any...

    Nope...but Tennessee did have more starters injured than any other college football program for each of the past 2 seasons (see attached substantiation). https://www.timesfreepress.com/news/breakingnews/story/2018/jun/25/tennessee-led-nation/473739/ Couple that with inept coaching, and it was...

    Week One Pick'm

    I hate Michigan and Notre Dame. If only there was a way for them both to lose...with that being said, I think Michigan beats ND like a rented Mule. Shea Patterson is the real deal at QB.

    Nice grammatical corrections. I assume you are familiar with the Hodge's Harbrace Handbook. You may not be aware of the story of the man behind the book. The original author of the handbook, John C. Hodges, was an English Professor at The University of Tennessee for 41 years.

    Jones recruited well...but didn't retain talent. If you go back and look at the players actually on the rosters remaining from those highly rated recruiting classes...you will see a scary amount of attrition.

    Knoxville Sentinel

    Oddly enough...if Keller Chryst starts for Tennessee, it will be a homecoming for him, as well. His family moved from Charlotte to Palo Alto when he was a High School Freshman (his dad left the Carolina Panthers organization to join the 49ers). I'm surprised that there hasn't been much said on...

    WVU needs to move to the SEC

    The shite-show that took place over the Longhorn Network and the ensuing meltdown of the Big 12 was a cautionary tale, and Power 5 Conferences took notice. If Texas were to join the SEC...it would have to be a vastly humbled program from the one that single-handedly dismantled their conference...

    WVU needs to move to the SEC

    I stand corrected...the SEC did want Texas when they expanded to add South Carolina and Arkansas in 1992. They did not want Texas in 2012.

    WVU needs to move to the SEC

    Texas was never invited...Oklahoma wouldn't come without Oklahoma State...Virginia Tech wouldn't come without UVA. South Carolina was going to block any attempt to go after Clemson, Florida was going to block any attempt to go after Florida State and Kentucky was going to block any attempt to...
