Vols Fans Create WILD Conspiracy About Missing CFP Amid Michigan Scandal

Tennessee fans are some of the most dedicated in the country, cheering their team on through thick and thin. That passion can turn into delusion at times, though.

That’s the case this week as Vols supporters created a conspiracy theory as to why they missed the College Football Playoffs last season, and it’s directly linked to the Michigan sign stealing scandal.

Let’s rewind to the 2022 season.

Tennessee got off to an 8-0 start, ripping off wins against five ranked teams including Alabama. They fell on the road to No. 1 Georgia in their ninth game, but a CFP berth was still on the table should they run the table.

Unfortunately, they’d lose two weeks later to South Carolina in embarrassing fashion. The Vols watched Spencer Rattler throw six touchdown passes in the 63-38 defeat, which effectively ended any national championship hopes.

They’d close out the year with an Orange Bowl win over Clemson, but many were left wondering about what could’ve been.

Some think they know why the Gamecocks were on their game that late November night.

Vols link SC loss to Michigan sign stealing scandal.

With reports surfacing that Tennessee was a team potentially targeted in Michigan’s sign stealing operation last season, Vols fans have drummed up a new conspiracy.

Michigan gave South Carolina the UT signs because they were scared to face them in the postseason.

No, really…

Remember last year, when the South Carolina Gamecocks had a magical resurgence at the end of the season by upsetting the Tennessee Vols and Clemson Tigers, costing both a shot at the College Football Playoff? It was impossible to explain. What if they had some help along the way from Michigan Football?

As crazy as it sounds, many have jumped on board.

We’ve reached an unprecedented level of conspiracy. Tennessee fans are now blaming last years blowout loss at South Carolina on.. you guessed it, MICHIGAN STEALING SIGNS LMFAO pic.twitter.com/EJvHlB0FsH

This isn’t the first excuse we’ve heard from that game result. Immediately after the loss, a number of Tennessee fans blamed the playing field conditions for the blowout.

They’ve now moved on to a college football-wide conspiracy. Tennessee against the world!
