Tennessee, who has been a part of the SEC since time out of mind.
Courtesy, guy. Save the juvie mean-tweet posts for a team that doesn't warrant your respect, or turn in your orange shirt...if you actually have one.

Assume they lose to Bama and UGA but could win the rest. SEC East ain't very hard.

I think it is more doable to collect the Under by the 2nd of October.

Curious about Bristol ...

Are there going to be bleachers on the infield or on the track?
Otherwise, the fans are going to be far away from the actual game. That is, I assume it is in the middle of the infield.

I live here in Knoxville and I'm pretty sure that they are using the regular seats and not bringing in any temporary seats. And, you're right, the fans are going to be a long way away from the field. A lot of folks that I know here aren't even going to the game, which is 1 1/2 hours away. Personally, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near Bristol that day because traffic is going to be a big mess.

I see them losing against VT, UGA, Bama, and they #### the bed against another.

Tennessee plays in the SEC's minor affiliate league,

AKA the SEC East. 10 wins is very possible for them in that division.

1) Can you make the bet online? No. That's illegal. You'd have to make the bet in Vegas or wherever sports betting is legal.
2) What is the return on a winning bet? It's an Over/Under. You pick either Over 10 wins or Under 10 wins and you win your bet amount. Usually a Push (exactly 10 wins in this case) means you neither win nor lose. But some bookies call a Push a Loser. If you lose, you pay 110% of your bet. In your situation, if you lose, you'd pay $1,100.
Clemson is an 8:1 odds to win the CFP next year. So if you really think Clemson is going to win a lot of games, betting your $1,000 to win $8,000 might be more appealing.

If you were to actually bet 1000 on the over at -120

you would win $833 if Clemson won 11+ games, lose $1000 if they won 9 or fewer, and i assume you would get your money back for a push if Clemson won 10 games, but you would need to check that to be sure.
I think it's also just based on the 12 game regular season.

I think that UT can get to 10 - 11 wins with their schedule this year. If Dobbs doesn't learn how to throw any better and teams can make them one dimensional, they could have problems. Key games for them are:
* Florida @ home. They've found every possibly way to lose to the Gators and I'm pretty sure that the Gators have beaten them something like 10 - 11 straight times. * Georgia in Athens. They beat UGA at home last year, so there is going to be the revenge factor for UGA. * Bama @ home. Well, it's Bama. Not many teams in the SEC outside of Ole Miss have found a way to beat Bama the last several years. The Vols fans have this one marked on their calendar. I think that UT is still took one dimensional to beat Bama's overall talent, but with the crowd behind them, maybe?
Living here in Knoxville, most UT fans (that I know) give Clemson props for the program that we've built and most really like Dabo (how he handles himself, what he stands for, etc.). Most are not too happy that we've come into the state and are making some legitimate runs on players that they normally would have already had locked up. They still feel confident that they'll get Higgins (in Oak Ridge) once they win their 11 or 12 games this year.
I actually want UT to win and continue to get better because that means that South Carolina gets pushed farther and farther down the ladder in the SEC East, which is a good thing! I just don't want UT to start recruiting in SC and NC like they did in the 1990s and early 2000s when we were really down and some of their best players on their teams heralded from the Palmetto State.
MT - Go Tigers!

Dobbs reminds me of Tajh in one aspect.
May 20, 2016, 9:41 AM

When things are going his way he's the best in the NCAA. When he's pressured he freaks and takes most of his offense with him.
I expect him to progress about like Tajh progressed so I think UcheaT has a good chance at 10+ wins and at least a division title. It's a coin toss between them and LSU or Bama for the Championship. Somebody find me a three headed coin.
I was born in East Tennessee and #### the Vols. I though I was a Vols fan until we played them in the Peach back around the turn of the century. I figured out real quickly what color my Orange really was.
I delighted they destroyed their program with their arrogance when the wanted a better coach than Fulmer, I was elated when they hired Kiffin and nearly spoke in tongues when he #### on them.

"In-state rival South Carolina was not projected in the win totals because no team under seven wins was listed beside local school UNLV (4.5 wins)."
That's gonna leave a mark.

^^^^So does that equate to: "USUC does not matter in the college football world, and are now insignificant"?
