Vols not looking too good right now. My niece is in 5th row on the 20. Highly doubt she understands what's happening!

Most are saying they expect the Vols to have a good season, and maybe even win the east division of the SEC, but they are also expecting the Vols to be bitterly disappointed on the 3rd Saturday in October... :)

The San Francisco Giants has always been my team. I grew up in San Mateo, very close to where the hotel scene is shot in BULLITT.

It has been a treat to see the Giants win the WS in '10, '12, and '14. I already consider it a Dynasty, but if they can get firing on all 8 cylinders they could be in the WS again. I am ready to see the Cubs flop again..... ;D

But anything could happen, once you get into playoffs everyone starts at 0 again.

Hey maybe the Cubs can sign LeBron James, he seems to curry favor with the officiating of sports events.... :P

Wasn't it Appalachia State that beat Michigan several years ago and sent them on a long downward spiral?

Sure was..  Luckily UT managed to pull one out..   In all fairness ASU went 11-2 last year and have a very good QB and RB but that doesnt excuse TN's performance..  Offensive Line looked lost as well as the defense at times..  Several upperclassmen making big mistakes..  I really thought Dobbs would have grown as a thrower from last year but its doesnt look like it right now.  Hurd looked like he had 50lb weights on his legs when running.


Next week is the Battle at the Bristol with Virginia Tech..  Game will be at the Bristol Motor Speedway and plans to be largest attendance in history at a college game at 150K

Being born in and living my whole life in California I sometimes wonder how I became such an Irish fan, but I can remember the 1966 national championship season under Ara, those gold helmets, and this teen kid was so impressed by it all that no other team ever caught my heart like they did.

Vince, you must have missed the game between ND and Michigan State that year??   The one where they were tied with several minutes to go??  and NEITHER team made an effort to WIN the game, instead.. both played it safe and kicked back and forth more than once to end the game tied..  Meanwhile, Alabama went undefeated and untied, but the writers voting, most from the north, voted ND and MI State ahead of Bama????   :)

I'm very glad that teams now have to PLAY other teams, and win, to win the NC...  :)

Gary I am no big know it all, but there are many teams who go undefeated and are not ranked #1, it also comes down to strength of schedule.
Alabama only faced one nationally ranked opponent (# 6 nebraska), vs ND faced off against 4 nationally ranked teams. Also Alabama got penalized in 65 for giving out 42 scholarships to freshmen when the NCAA rules only allowed for teams to give out 40. So this along with the northerner sports writers  view of segregation, may have also contributed.
