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.

1. no shit, but that has nothing to do with them being an underdog this year or not2. horrible troll attempt
10/14/2012 2:20:56 PM
vols just suck, and so do we for losing to them...thing is... we'll save our season unlike utstarting with a nice upset of the #3 team... woooo "bitches" as jaybee always maturely says
10/14/2012 2:23:14 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
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.

Jaybee is getting his big jiggly ass handed to him ITT

oh shit, ernie spoke.let me try.... No I'm not, ernie's anonymous ass is wrong. BOOM! fuck this place, tired of the juvenile behavior and trolls[Edited on October 14, 2012 at 2:53 PM. Reason : d]

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
State Tenn basketball game later this year...
10/14/2012 4:09:09 PM
just got back from the game. what was the score?
10/14/2012 4:21:20 PM
I, and i assume most of us, wanted Tennessee to have a great season and make our week 1 loss look respectable.It's too bad they've gone to shit the last few weeks.
10/14/2012 4:26:49 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
watch out, he'll start making fun of your knees
10/14/2012 5:57:31 PM
Tough game for UT tonight on the road. Hope the Bama fans don't get in their heads.
10/20/2012 6:35:46 PM
Those Bama fans sure are loud.
10/20/2012 8:14:07 PM

More like Cutcliff credibility watch.

10/27/2012 4:25:52 PM
I'm not gonna say anything since we got TOB'd
10/27/2012 4:26:31 PM
Really tough loss today for both UT and State. Dooley must win out to keep his job and TOB isn't going anywhere. Things are looking pretty bleak for both programs.
10/27/2012 4:29:35 PM
just got back from the game. anybody got the score for the last two games?
10/30/2012 11:21:32 PM
looks like south carolina beat them, and alabama shit on themmakes our loss to them look worse and worsethank goodness for them, they have powerhouse Troy coming this weekend.looks like they might even pull out 6 or 7 wins
10/30/2012 11:29:01 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
So rumor has it that Jon Gruden to Vols is a done deal. But we know how accurate rumors are.
11/1/2012 9:54:26 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
Maybe this will bring Jibbles back. I miss that big ole fat cuddly bastard.
11/1/2012 11:16:00 AM
^ You don't have a picture of yourself in your gallery so Jibbles will be all upset that you called him fat and he will call you a pussy and act like he is going to beat you up. I always enjoyed how he got upset about people who did not post pictures in their gallery like this site was facebook or something. What a fat cry baby.
11/1/2012 11:23:50 AM
Struggling against Troy[Edited on November 3, 2012 at 1:39 PM. Reason : lol at gruden to UT]
11/3/2012 1:36:23 PM
had to mount a comeback against Troy. Then again, we lost to UVA. guess we both suck this year
11/3/2012 8:31:07 PM
I hear Aaron Brooks volunteered to be a player-coach
11/3/2012 8:37:49 PM
I saw they were playing Missouri yesterday but unfortunately was out.Did anyone who saw the game, know who won?
11/11/2012 10:59:39 AM
11/11/2012 11:03:02 AM
I, too, just got back from the game and would like to know the score.As well, does anybody have the scores from all of their SEC games so far?
11/11/2012 2:55:01 PM
dooley fired
11/11/2012 6:02:13 PM
TOB TO TENNESSEE
11/11/2012 6:05:45 PM
Cutcliffes job if he wants it
11/11/2012 6:06:32 PM
guys, i've been out the entire season. what did dooley get fired for?
11/12/2012 8:45:32 AM
I have to admit that I haven't kept up with it. I thought they would challenge for the East this year. Is that still a possibility? What's their SEC record so far?
