Even if they lose today, they still end the season with UT and Wake Forest, which are both winnable games right now and could get them bowl eligible.No matter who they play in the SEC, them getting bowl eligibleto mewarrants Franklin discussion for SEC Coach of the Year. People thought they would win 2 games this year. They already have 4, could have beatenArkansas and UGA, and still could beat UF.
Right now, I would rather play UK, OM, or UT right now instead of Vandy. That's saying a lot for a team that has been a perennial doormat. They play with a ton of energy and excitement, and it's fun to watch. In a year where the bottom of the SEC is terrible, it's good for them to be playing well so we don't necessarily lose all of our bowl tie ins. Good chance only 8 SEC teams get to a bowl, assuming we beat UT Martin and OM. If they can get 6 wins, they give us a 9th bowl team and more money, which I like. </p>
