Extremely unlikely UT beats UGA or Bama.
Our history says it is unlikely UT will beat UF even with a new coach.
The Vols usually beat Kentucky / but they will have the talent and experience to beat us.
South Carolina is improving.
I am not sure about LSU’s roster but I think they probably have more talent.
Each season (obviously) has its own story lines of injuries, unexpected heroes, met and unmet expectations.
But with our deficiencies in depth overall and especially on the defensive side of the ball . . . I think we lose to Bama, UGA, Florida, LSU, and at least one of USC / Mizzou / Kentucky.
7-5 is where I think we land. 6-6 would not surprise me. 8-4 would surprise me a little.
