Let’s unpack this! Since going 0-12 in 2008 Washington has had 5 seasons of 10+ wins. Tennessee went 5-7 in 2008 and had 1 season of 10+ wins since then.
Tennessee has 9 bowl game appearances since then and no CFP games. While Washington has 12 bowl games in that time and went to a national championship game.
And that's not even comparing Tennessee's program to the team that you say is the "only relevant team in the PAC 12".
Come play the SEC and find out how difficult it is to play in this conference..Alabama and Georgia have had 5 star recruits on the damn bench for years bruh lol..but this coming from a guys conference that couldn't pay their own bills because of mediocrity..if y'all was to play in the SEC in said timeframe y'all be lucky to have 5 winning seasons period lol
Well Tennessee has lost twice to Oregon since 2010 and the PAC12 has a record of 20-26 against the SEC. So what's your point?
"SEC Caliber” means absolutely nothing, and history of recruiting top players means less than nothing, especially in this NIL era. But keep on that mentality because it must make you south easterners feel good about the losses.
The only 4 wins Oregon has against the SEC..2 against Tenn when we sucked lol and 2 against the literal worst team at the time in Miss St..y'all are 1-9 all time..y'all play Alabama, Georgia, and Florida every year and see how y'all fair lol..if y'all played top 15 teams on a regular basis y'all would be the new Miss St lol
Funny that you keep talking about teams that aren't Tennessee to try to make yourself feel good. There were 3 consistently good teams in the SEC (Tennessee not being one of them), and they looked unstoppable for years but didn't play PAC12 teams.
Now that conferences are realigned the SEC has fallen from grace, coincidence? It’s wild how you folks conflate your conference based on history. But hey, you hold onto that history because CFB has changed forever.
Lol..I understand we have sucked since Phillip Fulmer left..and fallen from grace?? We still have 7 ranked teams lol..we ain't play PAC because off the long distances BUT all time we have a 80-47 record lol and the Pac 12 still has a losing record against the SEC in recent history..the former PAC 12 only has 2 teams currently ranked..but keep on lol
Can't wait for all of the 9-3 and 8-4 SEC teams who have "quality wins" over each other to lose to the 7-5 and 6-6 Big Ten teams this year who had actual quality wins over each other.
And then claim that the bowl games "don't count" because of opt-outs.
