No, if I felt that way I would've suggested that you become Memphis fans.

I suppose--just seems something like that would be reserved for a more game opponent. It may not even be done by 2027 while noosegate is being investigated.

Basically a tune up game for us at Neyland. I doubt that we give in to TSU and play it in Nashville as that would be kinda silly. But who knows.

I agree. I don't get the feeling that this will be a blowout. We may cover, but I don't think that we win by 3-4 scores. I'll gladly come back and happily eat crow if we do; but it's the first game of the season and anything can happen unless we've really tightened it up and come out with...

2022 is over and done with and nothing is going to change that. What should be investigated is the condition of their field. It seems like every season someone gets a nasty injury on it. I'm not sure if they soak it down prior to big games or its just poorly maintained, but its not a safe...

Agreed. Georgia has talent, but they are young. If the crowd can be a factor and rattle their new starting QB and some of their other young players we may get it done this year in Neyland. But it has to be an orange nightmare from start to finish for Georgia's offense. I suspect as long as we...

Honestly, I don't even mind it. The SEC is murderer's row every year and although I'm lukewarm at best on many of Herbie's takes, I remember him saying last year that power conference schools were going to end up scheduling fluffy non-conference games because in the end it doesn't matter when...

Lol. Maybe going the Denard Robinson route---which if he can scramble like Robinson wouldn't be a bad thing.

I'm very interested as well. It's a complete enigma at this point. A few things I'm curious to see how they play out this season: 1. The obvious one---QB play 2. The running game with a more experienced Bishop, Lewis and the addition of Star Thomas 3. The defense 4. WR play; particularly...

And even if they didn't hate Nico, constantly hearing from his dad about how he needed to be surrounded by "more talent" and basically calling the current players not good enough isn't very well received (especially when there more than a few times that the receivers had the DBs beaten and Nico...

I also don't feel like it's fair to compare the OSU team that played Michigan to the OSU team that we ended up seeing. When they lost to Michigan it lit a fire inside of them and their NFL-lite roster really stepped it up. They pretty much ran through everyone en route to a natty. I don't...

Agreed. Take away the D line and Sampson and we lose a few more games. Nico was fine as a game manager, but he certainly didn't win us any games that I can recall. The most frustrating part was his lack of a deep ball. If Heupel's offense is going to be explosive you need someone who can hit...

Obvious answer is Tony V. because he's won it all; but I'll personally miss Barnes the most when he leaves. He's done some incredible things here and it feels like he's been the coach here for 20 years even though it's not been that long. I'm not sure we will find another coach who can find...

True. But he also injected some much needed life into both programs. Even though he's not exactly a star, I was impressed that he managed to develop Malik Willis and get him drafted at a small school like Liberty as well as take that same school to bowl games during his entire tenure there. I...

I'll eat my crow on that one for sure. I wanted him bad after Pruitt was fired after seeing what he did at Ole Miss and Liberty; but man has he been a dud at Auburn.
