The FPI doesn't account for Butch Jones being an idiot.***

Propaganda designed to enhance ratings of ESPN televised games to generate interest and advertising revenue.

The preseason O Ghost's Most Likely To Fire Their Coach at Season's End poll has Tennessee at #1.
I'll eat the computer I'm typing on now if Tennessee finishes at #5.

If you watched their spring game the eye test clearly shows they will be superior to all opponents this year

According to eSECpn FPI rank last year we were underdogs in a bunch of our games! Norte Dame, Louisville, UNC, FSU, Oklahoma, and Alabama. Which if the same teams lined up 9 more times, Clemson beats 'Bama all nine! Especially with healthy Shaq Lawson, Mackensie Alexander, Deion Cain, and Mike Williams! We were four of our best players short and still outplayed them! Sabah had to resort to trickeration to beat us. So,etching he NEVERTHELESS has had to do before! He was on the brink of defeat, rolled the dice, and it payed off. I would have done the same. Kearse wasn't watching where the ball was being kicked, and leaving his spot early all game. I pointed it out, and proclaimed I hope they don't try onside kick, because we are begging for it! Heck, Kearse checked out mentally after Ga Tech game. I would have benched him to get his head straight. But, I digress. This is a rant about how crappy eSECpn's FPI rankings are about as accurate as reading tea leaves! Pure garbage! Not to mention they prop up the SEC, and propagate the myth that the SEC is all powerful, and Gods gift to football. The facts are, they are losing money faster than the federal government with the SEC Network. Which is really EVERY channel for ESPN now. Disney ruined eSECpn, and Star Wars for that matter! 39 years of literature I'm just supposed to forget so some punk named Abrams can re-imagine Star Wars! Just like everything else: KISS keep it simple, stupid! If it's not broke don't fix it! eSECpn wasn't broke when it wasn't biased to the SEC! Off my soap box!
