D4H's 2017 Tennessee Vols Predictions

Figured I'd check in on the Vols before their opener. Glad to see this guy is still nuts. Also if we lose to Ole Miss I'm jumping off a bridge.

You'll be undefeated coming off a big win against Auburn. You'll be looking ahead of the matchup against Alabama 2 weeks later. Also the game is before the bye week, on the road, and after a long stretch of games.

That game is just a recipe for an upset. Its literally screaming as a scheduled upset. Also you know with all that talent still left in Oxford that they're gonna upset someone this year at home. Unfortunately it's gonna be y'all.

I'm not saying it can't or won't happen but good lord I hope it doesn't. I would predict LSU going 10-2 or 9-3 like you said just different losses. Well besides Alabama.

D4H, what does the impact of coaching cohesion have on your prediction calculus?

Shhhh, you're going to let everyone know what excuse he's going to use when his predictions don't come true....you know just like he did last year.

I thought we were going to run the table.

That's what I want to happen but alas I think Alabama escapes with a win against us in Tuscaloosa.

The final score will be 27-17 but the actual game will be much closer. Alabama will score a late TD to make the game look more decisive. But this will be a FG game throughout with us trading punches with them like we did in 2015. We'll be driving late for a TD to win the game. But we'll turn it over and they'll escape.

However, this will set us up to get revenge against them in Atlanta. Not for the SEC championship but rather the national championship. Its tough to beat a great team twice in the same season. And Alabama will find that out January 8, 2018.

This is my "realistic one". The "we dominate" one had us going 15-0. But alas I think we lose a close one in Tuscaloosa now. But we'll get our revenge in the National Championship Game.

I died laughing at your "realistic one" comment with us winning the National Championship. Love the optimism.

I'm thinking 8-4 is realistic. 10-2 or 11-1 is the dominate/"would be amazing" one for me.

One thing I know u got wrong! There is no way we only score 21 against Missouri. Did u watch Mo State put up all those pts??
Other than that I hope ur even remotely close to being correct..

8-4 is realistic for Arkansas. We win titles at Tennessee.
