Herbstreit picks Vols to start 2-4

I heard him talking about it on gameday this morning. Not that it's any surprise, but it's just more bad press for Tennessee.

I think that is a logical forecast, don't you?

That could happen but we could and should win some of those games. But the team has to go out and do it. If the passing game is not working maybe the coaching staff will go to the run like they should have Monday.

Yea, I saw that Freak. They asked who should worry more, UT or Miss St. Pickle face said MSU, Kirk said UT.

I think Herbstreit is dead on the money, unfortunately.

They said pretty much the same thing last year after Cal. I just think that we have to much talent to lose all of those. Stubborn play calling and a TERRIBLE passing game could make it happen.

I saw Herby's prediction too. If we continue to play like we did against UCLA he might be right. I can't help but think we will improve greatly over the next couple of weeks, or at least I hope we do. If UT really does start 2-4 and loses to Florida, Auburn and Georgia, we are in big trouble.

I dont think he cares as long as he gets a loss to one of them.

If that would happen and we would start 1-5, I believe this forum would actually blow up from all the irate responses.

Don't lose sight of the fact that in college football, who knows just how an inconsistent team will play on any given Saturday.

For all we know, 5-1 is as possible as 1-5. Good players can overcome bad coaching, but fired up players can overcome good players and good coaching.

5-1 is nowhere near as possible as 1-5.
