Vandy has no trouble vs. the Vols

This is a disaster. Our strength-of-schedule is officially in the shitter. Whatever shall we do??

Continue as normal.  Our SOS with or without wins v. KY and/or TN was going to be shit.

Re: Vandy has no trouble vs. the Vols

Yep.....but don’t forget one of our best teams (97) lost by two touchdowns to a 4-7 Bama team that would end up losing to La Tech in Tuscaloosa. Not the first time and definitely not one of our better teams that wet the bed when they should have won against a weaker SEC opponent.

It's not a popular opinion, but that 1997 team underachieved, just like this year's team. Watch that team's bowl game highlights and tell me they shouldn't have won at least one of those SEC teams. There was a lot of talent on that team.

Also, when I posted this thread, I was mostly just making fun of something someone said on the other board about UK. Bowls don't really get into strength of schedule at our 2017 level of success. They just want desperately to avoid a high school-worthy crowd.

We have been begging for a HS worthy crowd all year.

Southern lost to Grambling. The sweater continues to unravel before the unblinking gaze of the national media.

One should never mention "strength" and "schedule" in the same sentence when referring to a C-USA school.

And our biggest weakness. And we've proven that winning 8 or 9 games against this level of competition does not get people to come to the games.
