Agreed! Can't wait to eat chick-fil.... I mean, watch the Chick-fil-a kickoff game :)

Yea, the only problem is that Mercedes-Benz Stadium is still probably going to smell like Bamer from their game against FSU a few days before. Toilets will prob still be clogged too.

Paul Bain is overqualified for this distinction, so...

Offense: Latrell Williams and a QB to be named later (I got it narrowed down to 3).
Defense: Justin Martin (go big or go home) and Darrell Taylor (Kongbo/Warrior are to easy to pick). I really think the DBs, starting with Martin and Mosely will be more productive even without Cam Sutton due to a much better Coach.
Special Teams: Calloway on PR and Medley with a breakout year...finally getting his long ball aiming right.
Coaching: Warren and Wells as they have the opportunity to make the most improvements.

With all these breakout players, this team can easily win the natty AND play pretty deep into the NFL playoffs!

Oh, and my picks are ...
O -> Latrell Williams
D -> Nigel Warrior

If we're talking breakout as in someone we haven't seen much of yet who becomes a major piece of his unit (which would rule out a lot of guys who are poised to take a step forward this year), then I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Marquill Osborne.

We're all expecting Warrior to step up on D, but I could see Osborne locking down a CB spot by midseason and helping out our DB unit big time.

I really want to see Kongbo be a monster on the outside. He'll be wanting to improve his draft stock, so the time is now.

I think Callaway and Martin

BEWARE...Kyle Phillips is coming!

He's coming fast and he's coming hard so QB's better BEWARE because this Vol is coming for you!

I think Jennings will be a top 5 receiver in the SEC which will say a lot since he's working with a new QB.
