1) Historically Mississippi State has been very pedestrian in football. Even lowly NC State has a winning record against them. This year is out of the ordinary for the Bulldogs, and the national perception is that they are an underdog program that is having a good year. They are one of the feel good stories of 2012. I am genuinely happy for Dan Mullen and his program.
2) I have a family member who went to UT and extended family who live in Knoxville who love their Vols. I have somewhat of a vested interest in at least casually following them. For his sake, I hope they do well. But that doesn't mean that I cannot objectively point out their shortcomings as a program. Maybe you are happy where UT is, jaybee, and that's cool. I'm not judging, I'm just sayin' is all. 10/14/2012 2:18:30 PM |

1) It has everything to do with Mississippi State being an underdog program. Lots of schools have this perception. South Carolina instantly comes to mind. Duke football this year is another. Louisiana Tech as well. It makes college football more interesting when underdog programs do well.
2) I'm just bringing perspective. Don't be so hypersensitive. 10/14/2012 2:37:16 PM |

^ I agree, but for a specific season or game, in terms of who is the underdog or not doesnt go by the all time program prestige, it goes by that season's team, and more specifically how that team is playing at the moment. Using your logic, ND would never be an underdog ever, and I promise you they have been an underdog a LOT over the last 20 years 10/14/2012 2:39:36 PM |
Wlfpk4Life All American 5613 Posts user info edit post |
That's like, your opinion, man.
But seriously, it really varies by program. Some programs are underdogs regardless. Others are living off of their laurels, like ND. Even as bad as they have been (minus this year), beating ND still means something.
I look at these things through a different perspective, you may consider Mississippi State to be an elite program this year, I still see them as an underdog program who is trying to gain some respect. Heck, if Tennessee was 6-0 like Mississippi State they would be in the top 10, easily, if not top 5. 10/14/2012 2:45:54 PM |

I think it fairly obvious by now that State played like shit it the UT game. And that might be the best UT has played all year. You can keep throwing up that scoreboard - it reminds me of what a state fan would do to an FSU fan who talked shit. You know...when you deep down know you aren't as good as them, shouldn't have won, and its all you can say.
But congrats. Will be your best win of the year. Much like our win against FSU. 10/14/2012 2:46:56 PM |

And did we finally get rid of Jibbles? He's probably doing a youtube of himself peeing on TWW or something.

You guys are being mean. If you were Tennessee fans you would be holding onto the State win too, might be another few seasons before they can actually get another conference win. 10/14/2012 3:33:32 PM |

^^^^Yeah, its almost like making fun of a retarded kid at this point.
Do I feel bad? Nope. If you come on here and pull that 'missed the game, what was the score?' bullshit after we get beat, then you should expect to get your ass handed to you on here when your team sucks.
Plus, it takes about 5 of us to hand Jibbles his ass... 10/14/2012 5:32:31 PM |

I was at the game on Saturday and actually cheering for the Vols.
I want to say it was all about the Vols looking good...but I think the Gamecocks are overrated. Connor Shaw isn't a great passer and they don't open up holes for their backs. They're suppose to have a bad ass defensive line but barely got pressure on Bray (until the last play).
Turnover at the end of the 1st half killed the Vols (as well as the last one...duh). Bray can still sling it though. 10/31/2012 1:17:04 AM |

If Gruden ends up at UT, that will suck ass as even more talent, especially NC talent, will flow to the SEC. I believe it when I see it posted by HOOPS MALONE. 11/1/2012 10:14:04 AM |
