Truer words have never been spoken:
Well, expectations around here are win out. Don't lose a game, so you better be ready no questions if that's what your plan is.
I don't think that's accurate. Very few posters, actually primarily only one poster who nobody takes serious, has said the expectation that Tennessee "wins out" this year with a 15-0 National Championship season. Most expectations are 11-1, 10-2 or 9-3 with a trip to the SECCG per the overwhelming majority of VN posters.
What game do you think we can lose and get away with it is the interesting question. I've been dwelling on this.

I don't think UT can get to ATL without beating UF. UF's schedule is just TOO well laid out. The only possibility that they face two ranked teams in consecutive weeks is UGA followed by Arkansas. Otherwise, they alternate tough games with weak opponents and they've scheduled a bye week headed into those two games.

UT has a brutal stretch. IMO, UF cannot own the tie breaker vs UT if UT is to make the CG.

UGA gets Auburn and Ole Miss from the West. I think they'll lose to UF as well. If so, UT could lose two out of the three between UGA, TAM, and Bama.
One of the few schedule positives for UT is that UGA travels to Ole Miss the week before playing UT. It will be a tough game and UGA won't have any secrets on D after that game.
