I never get much from watching any of those teams play one another. All those ranked teams showing up to kick our butts in a bowl game just to limp home with a purple Vandy moniker.

Also why BYU's win over Wisconsin doesn't move my angst meter.

Wouldn't normally, but I'm interested if Vegas is on drugs with BYU or not. Preaseason spreads are so erratic, really hoping they're just way off here, Utah goes berserk on them, and they rough up those old men.
 
sorry for all the posts, but this is the first time I have really analyzed our schedule compared to how our opponents schedule breaks down right before our game.
This season seems to be the first in a while where we have so many games that fall in the "potential win/ possible win/" category (BYU, UF, MISS STATE, USCjr, MIZZU, UK, VANDY). There is really only two games where a loss is most likely (BAMA, UGA). And only 3 games you feel very confident in (3 cup cake out of conference games). Just a large variance in possibilities from 5-7 to 9-3. Really could be anywhere in between. It's exciting and terrifying all at the same time.
Yes
 
With everyone returning for the season, wonder if "green" something guy (pink shirt, SUV avi I think). Comes back.

Always got fighting mad if you said something negative about another team and lived in the Higgins thread.
BowlingGreenVol? Defender of...errybody else?
 
I wonder how long it's been since they have experienced anything like this.

I think 2 seasons ago, iirc, they had a crazy amount of injuries. Pruitt still dragged them to the finish line.

Edit: yes 2017.

"In all, seven linebackers who were starters or major contributors missed games because of injury.

As a defense, 35 games were lost to injury by players who appeared on the opening day depth chart. That doesn't include reserve defensive end LaBryan Ray (two missed games) or Moses (one missed game for a previous injury).

A year ago, Alabama's generational defense through 12 games had just four missed starts from the preseason depth chart"

(5) Right to the presumption of innocence (i.e., the Conduct Officer bears the burden of presenting information demonstrating that it is more likely than not that the Respondent violated a Standard of Conduct, as alleged in the Notice of Allegations);
“More likely than not” sounds a lot more like a preponderance of the evidence than beyond a reasonable doubt.

That’s fine but what he did at Florida was one of the worst coaching jobs I’ve ever seen. Spurrier won 11 games 3/5 years he was there. He took over a very good job at South Carolina. They panicked after they didn’t hire Tom Herman (thank god btw). He will he fired this year or next.
It was bad but urban left that program in a really bad spot and he had them in a new year’s 6 game by year 2. He is better than butch by a mile

Oh, I meant where they are in a position to be concerned about depth. I thought they were thin at LB.
 
One point on BT that I believe has been made here but is important: If whatever UT body makes a decision on BT has never had to deal with a threat of "shooting up the school" or mass violence, they'll have to determine how they want to set down a precedent. The last thing any governing body at UT wants is to have two standards set up: one for athletes and one for everyone else. That may lead them to make an example out of BT if they can collect enough evidence to meet their standard, which as a poster above has identified is basically preponderance of evidence, so 51% likely.
