Tenneesse fans said Alvin Kamara owned and I did not believe them, because nothing good has been associated with Tennessee recently, but he does own, so I�m sorry I doubted you Vols fans. Sorry about your team.

It's weird, because the AP style guide allows for abbreviations if the school refers to themselves as such

...which is why their poll usually doesn't have weird stuff like "Louisiana State" or "Southern Methodist". I don't know what the coaches' poll is doing, and neither do they.

Treat him as a Bama washout and not a Vols star and his success makes more sense

I should edit that. He coaches well, he just doesn't recruit for poo poo. Every shred of his success at BG was with Dave Clawson's kids.

It's a lot harder to look at the rest of Arizona's schedule and decide if there's two wins there or not than two weeks ago (when the answer was "there aren't 4 wins left in the schedule"). The Pac-12 keeping up the whole parity thing even when it's bad is certainly something.

Arizona is going to beat the poo poo out of Oregon State, an awful team with no coach.

So the question is: where's the sixth win? Best chances seem to be Cal and ASU. But RichRod's effectively saved his job I think, even if there's no bowl game this year.

The meat of their schedule starts this coming weekend, but they've had a good season so far. The Georgia loss and MSU win look a lot better these days than they did at the time.

While terrible, baby-poo poo is only a useful descriptor for Texas' uniforms.

Curious why you think you'd make a bowl next year when all your D talent and Benkert is gone. You're going to be officially out of the last bit of talent London recruited and onto the lovely classes under London and the awfulness Bronco's recruited. I think next year could be super ugly for you guys.

Hurry up and hire an AD so they can give Bronco a ridiculous extension.

I think I generally agree with you there. Although I think it's a combination of he saved his job and like now with the anxiety over basketball there seems to be a renewed push behind presenting an image of a stable academic department.

I think you're right about Oregon State and Cal or ASU being the most likely chances at wins, but the pessimist in me can totally talk myself into Arizona losing out. ASU seeming to develop a run defense out of nowhere last night is troubling. And like I could see Arizona going down in a like a 15-14 clusterfuck that Cal seems to be good at creating this year. Oregon State always plays Arizona tough even when they're bad, which I guess isn't as logical an argument as the other two but, eh.

Cal is not actually very good and got super lucky with turnovers to beat Wazzu they should be extremely beatable, even assuming Arizona's QB will eventually stop averaging 40 yards a carry

I think it depends on age. My kiddo's super heavy veggie diet creates a poo poo color very reminiscent of the 'swamp green.'

But yeah Texas is deffo the breast milk poo poo color.

Mostly because we were 2-10 last year and expecting to turn that into a bowl team in 1 year is insane. 2 years is a reasonable check in at this point

He's not a perfect coach, but we don't expect that. If you haven't made 1 bowl game in the first 3 years, there's still trouble. He may work out or he may not, but he's got UVA pointed towards a bowl game for the first time in 6 years and 3rd time in 13 years. That's the first level of success we have to get to
