nc st and uf games:

Are they must-wins? I believe so. We have to be 4-0 going into athens to have any chance of being good next season. What do y'all think? SIAP

It's time to get it done against UF. No more messing around, no excuses.

If the Vols are going to get a minimum of 8 wins, going to Athens with a 4-0 record would almost assure winning 8+. Coming back with 19 starters plus some key additions on both the field and staff could make it possible.

Florida is a must. NCState is a must in the sense that it is the first game and we need to kick off the season right.

I think must wins are GA, FL, and UA. I can see maybe one loss but the patience level for the fan base and donors is on a tight leash. As for me, Id give him 2 more years because I really believe in what he is doing at TN. It takes a lot to bring in a "good harvest."

Honestly the only games we "shouldn't" win on paper are Bama and UGA (Only cause it's in athens)

Exactly. Lose both of those games next year and Dooley's seat will be on fire.

I hope so. The UGA game Is the game I circle every year. It is the game I can't stomach loosing. I'm not sure why, but all the bullDAWG fans I've met are full of bull****.

My feeling, and it is strictly my own, is:
Dooley MUST win 8 games that include,
BOTH Vandy and Kentucky, and
two of FL, UGA, and USCe
Competitive against Bama
a win vs. NCSTATE or Mizzou

We have to get a signature win next year. Has to be one of the SEC games not including Vandy, Kentucky, or Missouri. This fan base needs it desperately.
