A 2-8 season for Vols this year?

2-10 is as likely as 10-2 (i.e., not happening). I think the floor is 3-9 if, say, we have major injuries on the D-Line and O-Line. On the other hand, if the O-Line jells incredibly quickly, we stay injury-free, and Simms over-performs, our ceiling could be 9-3. We'd have to go 2-1 against Oregon, LSU, and Georgia and not trip up with anyone else. Unlikely? Incredibly. But not impossible.

Somebody pass the kerosene. Seems we are out of mattresses so we are burning predictions now both technically and with negativity. I hope the players and coaches are reading this. 2-10?!?

I have a friend of a friend who's a roommate to one of the teams trainers that said we'd go 1-3

Considering we have 12 games scheduled, I don't see us finishing 2-8....maybe its just me

I think we will go 1-0. It will be like the old days, we can beat UTM and then wait for our share of the NC! :rock:

No, you're all wrong. The Vols will go @-(.)-b. I know what you're thinking, that doesn't make any sense. But is it any crazier than anything else that typed on these message boards on a daily basis?

So Tennessee is going to win 9 games this year because of where you live and how much you enjoy abiding there? Yeah, that makes sense.

maybe someone should start a thread on the first, media to start back peddling when the vols look a lot better than reported. I can hear it already "You should never under estimate the volunteers, followed by a long list of first round draft choices, as if they were saying I told you so.

I guess the season will be so bad we will just not play two of the games.
Edit: never mind, somebody already covered this.

We don't even have to win any unexpected games to not go 2-8 or 2-10 or whatever. It's a dumb statement, especially if they really did say 2-8. That really sounds like someone that knows what they are talking about.

Can someone explain to me why the local media is always so negative...

They are supposed to be unbiased....based on the talent and depth......5-7/6-6/7-5 is about the BEST UT can hope for. If CDD does better than 7-5...he will be SEC Coach of the Year! Picking 5-7 is not negitive.....it is REALITY.
