So TN wins out, so does Alabama and whoever has to lose does so.
Can TN beat Alabama again in the SEC championship?
Just curious what everyone thinks.

Can they beat Bama? Of course I thought the better team won Saturday. I would be more surprised to see UT beat UGA on the road in 3 weeks.Then I would be if they beat this Bama team twice. Remember in a rematch UT probably has WR #1 back and a couple starting Dbs.
I was listening to Heath Shuler this morning talking about that fumble scoop and score play. He said he just put his head down thinking well its over good try. Then he turned and looked at the sideline not a single UT player mad, worried, nervous, scared, panicked. He said they was all calm as could be. From the players to the coaches they knew they was still in the game. The better team. He said at that moment he realized how good this team was.

Me and one of my buddy's were talking about that yesterday.
They fo real fo sho. :D
That would be a good problem to have. having to play them twice
Bigger question... Can Alabama beat Ole Miss to win the west?

Yep.
It's hard to beat any team twice, however we would (theoretically) have our best receiver back and healthy, and our DBs that were out should be back minus McCollough. It would be a neutral site. Satan would have a better game plan the second time around. I say all that to say I have no freaking idea.

Good luck stopping Haytt, Tillman and and Bru. Even if they somehow did I would fully expect Heupel to make a change at the half to counter what ever They was doing.
So you'd rather play alabama again instead of Ole Miss?

No, I was just responding to a saban having a better game plain round 2. Good luck stopping UT is all I was saying game plain all he wants.
I would rather have Ole miss just do to the game last year. And that means Lane train beat Bama. Bammers would never come out of hiding.
I don't want Ole miss because I think they are a worse team then bama
If Tennessee beats Georgia,then possibly a Alabama,Tennessee rematch

Will Anderson and Henry Toot are both overrated.
Will Anderson was getting pushed around by a 3* most the night.

Trying not to think that far ahead. I feel like the pundits would hype a game like this so much it'd be annoying before the first whistle. Either way, would likely be epic. If that happens I'll stick with my previous prediction of TN by 10.

Agreed, Plenty to worry about before then.
Just keep winning and it'll sort itself out.

ALABAMA lost to ALABAMA because of the penalties they caused. You can NOT have 17 penalties for a total of 138 yards and expect to win the game. ALABAMA has not been crushing lower tier teams all season because of penalties and mental mistakes on offense and now they have a loss to a lower tier team. Had they not made all these mental errors the missed kick from Will Reichard to win the game would have never been in play and ALABAMA would have been ahead by at least two touchdowns. Everyone knows this to be true.
Ive said it before..the problem is with Bill O'Brien. He should have been fired at the end of the season last year. But because of his relationship with Bryce Saban wanted to keep some continuity with the staff. Saban should fire him now and take over play calling the rest of the season IMHO.
Saban is the GOAT and will figure out the adjustments. I expect ALABAMA to be back in the top 4 come playoffs. Bank on it.

Tried to take up for you a bit. Would've even congratulated you on showin up and taking your licks like a man but, to not give credit to the team that beat you is typical spoiled sport behavior. Grow up Peter Pan. You got beat. Own it and move on.

You know who don't have 17 penalties? Good teams.well coached teams. Disciplined teams .
You know who gives up 5tds and 207 yards to a single player? Bad teams. Undisciplined teams.
Tennessee won because they was the better team Saturday plain and simple.
Maybe it was UT that beat the lower tier team? That's after gifting Bama a free TD, throwing a Pick, and getting stopped on multiple 4th downs. And Bammers still crying for the Refs.

Oh yugo! He is off his meds guys
Last year that would have been a true statement, but not anymore.
Talked to the Alabama fans I work with and they all said kinda what you did.
Too many penalties and mistakes BUT in the end TN just flat out played and out coached them. (Their words, not mine.)
Should make for a good game to go to next weekend when they play Miss. St. for my first football game.
I'm looking forward to it, especially since part of it will be under the lights.
Hmmmm, interesting take
Below are the week 6 SEC power rankings BEFORE Tn beat bama. Maybe they decided we were a lower tier team after we beat Bama??

100% true.
When you turnover the ball on downs TWICE!
Gift alabama 7pts. gift wrapped hear you go Bama 7 free points.
And Throw a rare interception, so 4 turnovers!
And still put up 52 pts! You flat out played better and deserved to win.
NO, The University of TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERS beat Alabama. Plain and simple. The Vols outplayed Alabama. The UT coaches outcoached Bama coaches. Plain and Simple. Personally, I love it when you spamma fans refuse to go outside of your momma's basement and see things for what they really are.
Welcome back! Glad you could join us! This post just shows what you are made of. You can't give TENNESSEE any credit at all. One thing you said is true: Saban is the GOAT. Got Outcoached At Tennessee! Enjoy that 6th place ranking and 2nd place in the SEC West.
Every penalty that put em 3rd 20 they overcame? I don't get the wussy ref crap

If that was true you would not have been faced with a game deciding field goal that COULD have won the game for ALABAMA had Will made the shot. Yall were pinned to the wall with 40 seconds left on the clock and Will flat out missed the game winning Field goal. Game would have been over. Instead the most consistent kicker in ALABAMA football history missed. And ALABAMA lost the game to themselves and gave the game away right there. FACTS!
