All that's fine, but I'm not sure that confirming you have a spoiled and entitled fan base is quite the flex you think it is. ;)
 

And this guy ^^^ knows a thing or two about spoiled and entitled fan base.

FIFY

And therein lies the difference in demand.  For Tennessee fans who want to see their team play for the NC, this is their first opportunity since the inaugural BCSNCG in Arizona on January 4, 1999.  Since then, Ohio State fans have had the following opportunities to watch their team play for the NC:
  • 2002 BCNCG - won
  • 2006 BCSNCG - lost
  • 2007 BCSNCG - lost
  • 2014 Sugar Bowl - won
  • 2014 CFPCG - won
  • 2016 FiestaBowl - lost
  • 2019 FiestaBowl - lost
  • 2020 SugarBowl - won
  • 2020 CFPCG - lost
  • 2022 PeachBowl - lost



Yeah.  But that wasn't the point.

The point was.....we pay more for seats in Neyland Stadium to see a non-con game vs. UTEP.

These playoff tickets are going for 150-175.  Hell, I paid 290 a piece for "ok" seats against lowly 3-9  Kentucky this year.

And with far less reason to feel spoiled and entitled, I'd add!

Having lost for 7 straight years to a division rival with our old coach, believe me, I get it. 

I'm pretty sure our fans would still be excited for a team in the playoffs even if we lost to the Gumps again, and I'm noting that I'd have expected the same from Ohio State fans, or Michigan fans if they lost to OSU but made the playoffs.  One thing sucking does not necessitate a lack of joy about another thing.  I guess in this case it does. 
I'm sorry you don't have a rival of the same caliber. 

To paraphrase a former player, "it doesn't matter how good your season was, if you didn't beat them then nobody cares.

Reminder to Tennessee that your SEC Membership perks are on the line and may be revoked, pending the outcome of this game.  Part of your contract with the SEC is that you don't lose to Ohio State.  Alabama has only recently been let off probation for the 2014 fiasco.

This is brilliant. I've got a touchtunes account. I might just spam the IU fight song at every bar in the neighborhood of Notre Dame stadium Friday before the game.
