But a team located in a state famous for dubious assets should have examined the inexperienced backup with a greater level of suspicion.

This is only a simulation. Just for kicks. In fact, this simulation was executed only one time. For any meaningful result (if any result of this nonsense could be meaningful) it should be repeated several hundred or thousands of times.

Big Orange fans will be relieved that this is only a simulation after getting a glimpse of the predicted results. Hit the jump and check out what NCAA Football 12 thinks of the Vols in 2011.

New Song and Tour Dates From The Avett Brothers
Debuting on CMT’s Crossroads (Unplugged), “The Once and Future Carpenter” is the newest song from The Avett Brothers…and it is amazing. In addition to the new song, The Avett Brothers also announced new fall tour dates. The dates include two performances in Tennessee, a free show in Starkville, MS on the campus of Mississippi State, and several others. If you’re a fan, make it a priority to see them in concert. Their energy is unmatched and, speaking from experience, it will become an instant favorite. Ticket sales begin this week for many of the new tour dates so don’t delay! In the meantime enjoy the Crossroads performance of “The Once and Future Carpenter.”

What does it mean to sign four- and five-star recruits? Does it guarantee success? Bowl victories? Should Tennessee fans be concerned over the three-star laden class of 2012? Should I stop asking questions? Yes…to the last one at least. For the previous four, I don’t know. Hoping to find out, I did some brief research using Rivals.com’s recruiting class rankings from 2002 to 2011. Hit the jump to check out my results.
