Am I the only one that would look at 9-3 as underachieving?

I would see it as underachieving. 10-2 at a minimum in my opinion this year. As I pointed out earlier, we basically have FOUR games. Unfortunately, they just so happen to be in a row and at the end of the seven game stretch. Regardless, if Tennessee is supposed to be an SEC and possibly even national contender, we should NOT lose more than two of those four games. Really, if we're to be a legitimate TITLE contender, we should win at least three of them!

11-1,just because we improve two games each year.(why not?) Only loss is Bama or Ga. 9-3 will be kind of a downer but I am not turning on the players or coaches calling for heads to roll. It still will be a good season.

Worse than 9-3, I'm calling for heads.

Last year, on paper, I had the Vols going 7-3-2. Since there are no ties, I picked them to win the two pushes, Florida and Uk.

Using the same formula I did during the last 8 CPF years, and for the first time last year with CBJ, 2016, on paper is shaping up to be a phenomenal season.

My 2016 paper shows the Vols (if healthy) going 12-0.

I hope my paper is correct.

GBO!!!

Record your official prediction for the coming season here. The people who got it right will definitely resurrect the thread next January and we can all see how we did.

I'm saying 10-2, and one of the two streaks (FL, Bama) will be broken. SEC East division champs.

Personally not gonna predict Atlanta W/L or bowl game until the fall.

what you posted seems damn reasonable to me...of course, I will take better, if it happens...:)...:rock:

GO VOLS!

11-1.

I see a lot of aTm losses in this thread. Is there really any reason to believe they will make a massive upswing this year?

10-2 splitting the four big games.
I like that we finally match-up well with talent, dislike that all the games are back to back.
That would be a hard 4 game stretch for any team.

Does that have anything to do with 8-4 being the most popular answer last off-season? Then followed by claims of "what a disappointment an 8-4 season was"?lol

Maybe JP should add a poll. Looks like 10-2 and 11-1 are in a decent battle at this time.

11-1 with the lone loss at the hands of TAMU. End the regular season in the top 5. Vols lose a rematch to Bama in SECCG. Tennessee goes on to throttle Ohio State in Capital One bowl to finish the season 12-2 and ranked 4th.

Dobbs becomes a 3000 / 1000 yd guy for the year. Hurd rushes for 1250 and Kamara chips in another 800 in a record-breaking offense. Defense avgs less than 15 ppg. allowed. Barnett has 13 1/2 sacks to accompany Kongbo's 9. Sutton has 7 picks on his way to joining Barnett, Dobbs, Hurd, Kirkland, and Preston Williams for 1st team All-SEC honors. Barnett and Dobbs become 1st team All-Americans.

Ummm, if our offense and defense that does that good. We are going 15-0 no doubt.

I like your thinking.

10-2, no trip to ATL? we losing to FL and GA?

Either Georgia or Bama, although I think we have a great shot at beating both. Not sold that Butch won't snatch defeat from the jaws of victory a couple times this year.
