Dont get me wrong, I love the Vols. I have went to games for over 20 years now. I used to have a screen name on here, but I forgot it, and usually just read what everyone else puts on here. With that being said, I just dont see why everyone is soo confident we are going, to just go to Cal and smack them around like a lil b!!ch... Dont get me wrong I think we can win. But all this overconfidence just doesnt sit well with me.. I havent heard this much confidence since before the 02 team... I hope Im in for a big shock but I can really see us starting the season at 1-2.. I CAN ONLY HOPE IM WRONG..

I think the main reason is that last year, when consistently overrated Cal came into Knoxville, we smacked them around like a lil b!!ch. I can see us starting the season 1-2 also, but I like our chances of 2-1 or even 3-0. Then again, I prefer to see the glass as half orange.

CAL fans think they'll win. Vol fans think we'll win. It only sounds cocky if you're wearing the opponents colors. Too bad the boys in blue are wrong.

No, he can't. I saw him pick ND at 10-2 the other day on a preseason show.

Mark May predicted 5-7, I believe.

It is hard to give a lot of credence to the "experts" with that degree of variance.

if Cal wins...no matter how much Cal wins by....I'm taking a total of points scored in both games to see who really won.

TN leads by 17

:p

didn't lou also say they were going to beat SC? Someone needs to sit poor lou down and explain to him how he is ruining his already lousy reputation with these homer picks.

I doesn't matters 1 cent what we think on this board or how "cocky" we as posters are. What does matter is the mind set of the team and I assure you, they are going there to take care of business and win. There is a fine line between cocky and confident. you can be 'Cocky" at your on house, you are only "confident " when visiting another. No one has a clue what the out come will be but as for me, I'm banking the Vols get it done

Lou would not hesitate to pick any team he once coached to beat the NE Patriots.

Vol fans too cocky? Most of us seem to be trying to build a case for why we'll have a losing record this year.

As somebody with no dog in the fight, I will say TN is too strong and fast on defense for Cal. TN is young at receiver, QB with sore finger, fast at RB, always has a solid O-line. TN reestablishes the running game. Cal has mostly Stanford rejects, nothing against Cal. Tn by 17.
