Terrible news. Dan was beyond elite at his craft. A pro’s pro. In particular, few who covered the Olympics could come close to matching Dan’s work in his signature sport, swimming. May he rest In peace… prayers and love to you and your family, Hannah.

@BabysitterBari like I told the Vol fans tonight, even computers think that Bama should be ahead of Tennessee.
So, jump off the bandwagon.

Is this better than the committee’s?

I’m not sure why you are so testy. Folks have the right to their opinion, same as you do. It’s thoroughly aggravating to listen to constant drivel and see goal posts moved week to week. I’ve heard the terms “Pod/Group”“Quality loss” “H to H” “Eye Test” “SoS” “SoR” etc.. How is that measured? To the best of my knowledge it’s all subjective because there are no solid metrics used to compute and compare. You chose to jump into this shark pool, so don’t get pissy when you’re questioned on your opinion.

Exactly right, Audrey. The committee, annually, tells us the parameters… then changes them. All anyone wants is consistency. Ask the Indiana folks how they’re feeling. Essentially penalized after a bye. The committee may be spending too much time on imright.com.

So much discussion around Alabama-Tennessee, Miami’s sizable drop after losing in South Bend… If any team has a legit major issue, it’s Indiana. A bye week precipitating a significant drop like this is going to compel ADs/coaches to review future schedules and where byes fall.

Which doesn’t make sense on their part since SOS impacts their decision-making and will change from week to week even when there are byes.

This is part of our collective frustration, right? Picking and choosing what is or isn’t important. All anyone wants is consistency and annually it’s a bridge too far. It’s not just Alabama-Tennessee. It’s all of it. The fact the committee needed to course-correct is telling.

Perhaps. If I’m in charge of a football program, this is a benchmark moment. It wasn’t that long ago a previous committee said a bye week wouldn’t hurt a team. Well…

@CGProgram even the computers are telling you that you are wrong. Cry about something else, this is really getting to be annoying and boring.
Just win your remaining damn 3 games and you are in.
Stop trying to stroke your small ego.

Annoyed and bored? Then why take the time to write a post including - BCS numbers. Seriously? This is your argument? 😂

You sought me out, Jeff. Not the other way around. The irony here is off the charts.

Where did this pod thing come from? I don’t recall it last year or the year before. They’re just making up new metrics as they go to do whatever they can to let bama in

It’s been around since the beginning of the CFP but has evolved as the number of teams has grown. And it’s mentioned more often now. It all becomes convoluted when Hunter (similar to Warde Manuel in 2024) tries to explain their methodology and makes little to no sense.

That is fine. It's not about where Alabama is. It's where Alabama is in relation to the team that beat them by 16, has the same record, and matches the Crimson Tide's best win.

It's really not complicated; just like last year, it wasn't complicated with Notre Dame and Miami.

Making it complicated just confuses everyone before you inevitably switch at the end.
I would personally have Tennessee ahead of Bama due to the H2H but I still have Alabama top 5

The hyper focus on Bama is already getting old. Just make the playoffs whether it’s #1 or #12 and you’re fine

Ari lays this out concisely. Sometimes things aren’t as complicated as metrics fan clubs and selection committees make them out to be.

General Robert Reese Neyland.

The namesake of @Vol_Football's stadium.

His story is UNREAL
With @CollegeGameDay headed to Knoxville this weekend it's time for a little history lesson....

CFB fans know that @Vol_Football plays at Neyland Stadium....but do you know how big of bad ass General Robert Neyland actually was?

A thread....

UGA did exactly to Ole Miss last Saturday what I want us to do. From warmups to the final second, they kicked the door in and took over physically. We have that kind of talent now! We need a cocky mentality on the road! 🍊👊🏽

I tweeted it after the game, but the thing I was most excited about Saturday was the old killer Heupel showed up again in the second half for the first time in a long, long time. Coached different, acted different on sideline, had that swagger. He needs to stick around.

Nick I was texting with multiple Vols fans during the game and that exact point came up in the latter stages of the game. It was as if Invasion of the Heupel Snatchers was playing out.
