Tennessee “Bulletin Board” Material?

Has that changed? I met a bunch after I moved here 17 years ago, and they weren't all set the world on fire smart.

You can do that with just about any school out there ... I mean George Bush has a Yale degree.

has what changed? The fact that Tennessee is a pretty damn good school and very difficult to get into if you are an out of state applicant. Not sure what you are asking or what your point is, the fact that you met a bunch of Tennessee alumni that you felt weren't very smart. I have worked around Cornell for 22 years and seen some of the bigger idiots of my lifetime, doesn't mean they weren't qualified academically to get in

Tennessee-Syracuse is almost a main event - Knox TN Today

Take my word for it, football openers are not all the same. This one has a curious feel. Tennessee and Syracuse have new people in key roles. Anything could happen. High drama is possible. Few opening games are actual main events. This would be medium large if it wasn’t for Texas and Arch...

Victory will taste better after reading this. Go orange

For what it’s worth so does Syracuse.

Calm down, bub. It was a legit question, and not an attempt at insult. Keep in mind, I live in Knoxville.

I didn't know if their admission criteria had changed or if they've become more comepetitive over the last 17 years. I've known a number of people outside of Tennessee that have attended UT. Enough that I didn't realize they were so selective with out of state applicants. My "set the world on fre smart" comment simply meant they didn't stand out to me.

Higher GPA that AlGore, if I remember correctly.

I don't like either of them and frankly would point to this as an indictment of our education system.

Or was that the hanging chads?

is it game time yet?! Day is dragging, nothing would give me more joy than beating an SEC school in their own back yard. I have been watching a bunch of their podcasts and experts have not seen anybody who is overly concerned about this game, hopefully their team feels the same way and we kick em in the teeth.

I dunno.

Don’t think we beat the Vols that badly.

I've honestly never seen an opposing fan base act like this in the time leading up to a game against Cuse. This has definitely been a unique phenomenon, and not in a positive way. I've seen TN fans like this in comments sections of almost every single slice of Cuse media. Every single Youtube vid from Cuse Sports Talk and the SyracuseOrange Youtube channel with Axe and co. Every single message board including this one, just everywhere giving the TN fanbase a really bad look. You can say it's just online weirdos but I've literally never seen this and will most assuredly judge the fanbase off this. Just extremely bizarre behavior. I don't think a lot of these people are mentally well.

They are a really good team no doubt, but they really act like they haven’t played second fiddle to teams like Bama or UGA maybe that’s the angst.

I think they win tomorrow, but still, really confident bunch. Fair enough.

As is the IQ discrepancy … you don’t really fit in here if you catch my drift. I dont see you splitting atoms anytime soon.

It's an accurate portrayal. Of course not all TN fans are douches, I know a few good ones, but the TN fanbase is very douche heavy.
