Ok ok, how bout this?

Butch wins 11 regular season games but Mason gets coach of the year for getting Vandy to 8 wins plus a bowl win.
Kamara ends up with more total yards than Hurd
A freshman WR eventually starts over Josh Malone
Berry runs back 3 kicks again this year
Defense wins a game with a pick six or a fumble return
Medley hits 75% from beyond 40
JG wins the back up QB roll and impresses when he comes in late in games

Better. But I hope you're wrong about JG. Want to keep the red shirt. Tho he may be the best QB by the end of the season

I think he potentially fits the offense much better than Dormady. We rely on motion and misdirection at the QB position too much to just toss it after Dobbs is gone. I think Butch wants to mimic what Urban is doing at OSU more so than Saban so a pocket passer doesn't really fit. I also think who ever doesn't win the starting job next year will transfer and Sherion Jones will stay on as the #2.

Don't think so. Not sure 8-4 would get them ranked.

7-5 looks like a real possibility if they can't find a QB, OL or RB. Defense will be solid but not spectacular.

Florida losses could include the following.

1. Tennessee
2. LSU
3. Georgia
4. Arkansas
5. FSU

Meanwhile Spurrier just quipped about his resume and the UF trophy case again!

Dobbs 4 Heisman said:
My bold prediction:

We will have TWO 1,000 yard receivers in 2016.

Lotta talk about Preston potentially blowing up with a 1,000 yard season. I think Malone also gets 1,000 yards receiving in 2016.

Our passing attack will be a lot better than anyone expects. We'll also have the benefit of 15 games to put up these numbers.

Maybe if we stop the 12-man WR rotation that Azzanni loves so much and just stick to a 'core' receiving set

I think we'll stick with a main rotation of Preston, Malone, and Josh Smith as the first unit. And Jauan, Brandon, and Byrd as the second unit.

George will be a redzone specialist.

Why mess with depth over garbage minutes? Unless Dobbs misses time, he redshirts IMO. Also JG missed the end of his last two HS seasons due to injury. A year of resting and strengthening his body would be beneficial to his development.

Dobbs will win the Heisman and un-named poster (hmmm) will mention "I told you so." on every thread in the off season. :eek:lol: Wait, you said "bold" prediction. My bad....

While I'm not a big fan of Azzani it's been CBJ's decision to play that many relievers ain't it? I'm curious to see if the perception of Azzani changes similar to the way it changed with Mahoney.

Not feeling the Vols this year eh 99?

Ohio state was #1 last year and didnt play a ranked team until november.

I think they are legitimately going to be a very good team, but there arent going to be a lot of must see tv games.

Alabama is the only opponent that i am sure will be ranked at the end of the season

Kongbo doesn't make much noise in the first three games, but when the gators come to Knoxville he explodes on the scene with a 3 sack game. The vols sack Del Rio a total of 8 times.

Florida offensive line will refuse to take the field when they see Paul Bain at the line of scrimmage, Gators forfeit.

Vols finish 11-1 and face LSU in SECCG. 1 loss is to A&M. Vols Beat LSU and Make the playoffs. Vols get matched up with OSU and win 30-28. UT & Clemson face each other in the NATL champion game. Vols beat Dabo and Tee Higgins rejoins the VOLS. You guys did say bold right?

Butch Tells Tee "Thanks but no thanks. You had your chance." Holloman and Donovan Peoples Jones commit to TN
