Dear Coach Heupel

It's our best chance to beat Georgia in the Heupel era, and likely won't have a chance as good or better again until 27 when either Brandon or Mac have a year of experience under their belt. That being said, 84% of Georgia's roster are blue chips, while we're still only at 54%, and until that gap closes a bit more(which it should given how we seem to be recruiting now), probably won't actually be favored to beat them.
I agree with you on talent, do you know the blue chip ratio from last year? I felt like we were a play or two away from being in a position to win last year ( or maybe I’m way off cause of the age factor) and didn’t they benefit from a few iffy calls? Hopefully we get the benefit of the doubt on, if any, iffy calls this year.

First, you are appreciated. The life you've brought back to Tennessee football, after years of torture, I can't put into words. However, there's a very serious matter, with dire consequences that needs taken care of. You have to beat Georgia Saturday, no moral victories, no "we tried", it has to happen. My sanity, my freedom, heck, at this point, even my marriage depends on it. You can't imagine what it's like to live amongst people who walk around barking, let alone being married to one of them. I love my wife, but if Georgia wins again, it will at least lead to counseling. I'm not a violent person, but I'm already at the point of wanting to throw people into the river, and burn Athens to the ground. My home, my work, my church, I can't even go to Walmart without someone barking when I wear my Tennessee gear. Talent gap is no excuse, these people aren't that bright, that's including their players! Anyone who thinks a human barking is intimidating, they're not smart! Is it annoying? Yes, it's surpassed bama fans for me, and that takes a lot! I want to drive through town Saturday night, with my Tennessee tag, my checkered overalls, and sing Rocky Top all night. I want to wear my Tennessee tie Sunday morning, then my new Tennessee shirt to the gym after church. I don't care if I get beat up by a bunch of puppies, it'll be worth it to just shut them up. So please, if you find your way to Volnation and see this, please win. I don't want to put my wife on the couch again!
I kind of hope we lose, just to see the aftermath of Athens burning.

Brother, the Bible warns against this sort of unholy union…

Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?

Yes, I am only joking but I hope she’s worth the torment! 😂

I love college football, but it will never compel me to…

1) Instigate fights and arguments within my own family
2) Harass or insult other grown adults for who they cheer for on Saturdays

like it literally is not that important

I see counseling, the hospital or prison in your future.
I would recommend choosing counseling from someone who graduated from UT. 😁
My second recommendation is (hopefully you have blue eyes) play this song often and endlessly .. and it will help if she is a blonde.😁
My last recommendation is put in for a transfer out of the state of Georgia. 😁
Go Vols!
Kill her with kindness.

My hope is that you will be able to go to Wal Mart sporting your UT gear loud and proud as you shop for Captain Crunch Sunday morning. GBO!!!

As for the skill players on offense, the talent matches GA at the very least. It's going to be the offensive line vs their defensive line that matters (as usual). On defense, I'm not sure we are where we need to be yet at LB and DB so we really need our DL to have huge day vs their OL. Can they?

I would never instigate a fight, but good grief you should meet some of my bammer family. Makes it real tough

Poet and don't know it.

Although this request is greatly appreciated and felt, I know these young men will do everything possible to win. However, if the outcome is not what we all want, I still love the atmosphere that CJH has brought to UT. Along with the other UT coaches, UT has character (I know character doesn't win games), but I believe he has built this program on elite talent with character. A win would finally wash out the bad taste that those previous goofballs left behind for CJH to fix.

GBO!

I remember the days of old when we craved a decent QB. Nick Stephens, Coleman, Simms, etc. Now, we have top-notch talent across the board. Saturday will be fun again. Especially when we celebrate breaking that 8 game losing streak against Georgia.
