Made it! 25,000 at 11:51.

I'm stunned. I don't know if they've quit or what, but the Vols have posted a very few votes in the last fifteen minutes. It's time to finish them, to spend the weekend building an insurmountable lead and win this thing for Caris and the Mean Green Nation. Keep pushing, folks.

I understand your frustration, Vols. I really do. And, no, we don't win as much as you do. We don't have the national titles or the big-time bowl games or the national reputation.

But we're winning this fair and square, and you're going to have to fight like hell to beat us.

Let's not only win it for the Mean Green Nation, but for the SUN BELT NATION as well because we have had a lot of help from our SBC bretheren. And yeah, we haven't won as much on the grid iron as they have, but we haven't spent the money to do so either. Regardless of that fact of monetary discrepancies between the two, I must remind that we did win the last one.

You know? All UTK would have to do to win this pretty much is to have every single fan that has a place inside that 107,000-seat Neyland Stadium to vote once.

Unfortunately, about 100,000 of them don't even know what a computer is, nor have they ever attended a class at UTK to even care. As for the other 7,000--too busy enjoying band or the jock party down the street.

The girl from Illinois mounted an impressive rally the last couple of days.  She might not finish in last afterall.

Good for her. I wonder if that terrible snow storm has affected her totals? The storm apparently knocked out power in large parts of Missouri and Illinois.

Speaking of power, why is it that smoke alarms batteries only run out in the middle of the night or early in the morning? Then they start that loud chirping - like this morning. Oh well, might as well vote.

The Saturday it's-too-early morning standings:

Caris Tschauner (Sun Belt) 164,858

Shawn Manners (SEC) 139,008

The lead is a little more than 34,000 at 4PM on 12-9. Last year's winner had more than 300,000 votes and we don't have 200,000 yet. With five more days of voting we need to get a lead of around 50,000 to discourage UT from making a run.

      🙄 like I have stated before DC under a lame duck coach is not a highly desired job for coaches with options.

      That is very subjective. Boise State or UNLV probably will get the G5 spot in the playoff over a one loss Army team. Louisville, SMU, Houston, Rutgers and Cincinnati left conference for greener pastures. So I don’t know who anointed the AAC as 5th, but the playoff committee isn’t listening to them. Army, a team brand new to the conference that came into the conference and dominated. They were independent juggernauts last year at 6-6 🙄. AAC is viewed as better than the MAC, CUSA and Sun Belt. But we certainly won’t be viewed as better than the reconstructed PAC 12 and right now it doesn’t look like we are viewed better than the current MWC.

      Football at The Dat next wrekend

      Don't if y'all know this or not.....but the last two years we've had Texas high school football games played in Louisiana. Both years the games have been at Turpin Stadium in Natchitoches. As a matter of fact, this year they hosted two games on the same day. (Daingerfield versus Newton, and Texarkana versus Port Neches Grove). Both games were last Friday.

      The exact same thing was probably thought by other fan bases about Eric, Seth, Dan, and any other head coach we’ve hired here.
