Dobbs: "I know we're ready. There's no 'think' to it."

This team is really really really athletic. Watch last year's Oklahoma game and then watch how our guys looked last week. Forget the opponent or the yards or the points. I'm talking about the eye test. I'm talking physicality. How their bodies looked. How explosive their movements were.

Dobbs looks on another level from what we saw last year. He looks bigger, stronger, more explosive. His arm strength even looks improved. His accuracy definitely has.

We all know Hurd is now 242 and just as explosive as ever. Jauan Jennings might already be our best receiver. He looked exceptional last week. More depth. Better athletes. A year improved. A year stronger.

This team is on another level from the one we saw last year. I think they know they're ready to explode.

From reading this, I'm not sure they are the ones about to explode.

Easy, killer. Let's take a page out of Astro's playbook and show some cool confidence.

There's a difference between that and naïveté or arrogance. Trust me, my wife lets me know whenever I'm being arrogant or cocky.

Best post in this thread. Tennessee now even looks the part. I don't know if we have ever had a more athletic WR corps. The new additions, Williams and Jennings are freakishly athletic. Adding them to North, Pearson, Smith, Howard...wow. Our OL even looks more athletic, not to mention the upgrade in athleticism and speed across the board in defense. Teams with superior athletes can just play average against even a "good" team and still win, but if they play great they can beat anybody in the country.

I think he's better than anyone since Tee Martin. I have nothing but respect for guys like Casey Clausen and Eric Ainge, but nobody since Martin ever put the team on their back and singlehandedly won such an important game for us like Dobbs did last year against South Carolina. I love Dobbs' talent, intelligence and attitude!!!

Hope this game gets us back to the days where Out of Conference Foes dreaded coming to our house. Would love for this to turn into the Cal game where they came in so highly touted and Meachem and Co tore them a new one... they got frazzled and could never recover... here's to bringing that excitement back to Neyland!

“I don’t want to get any messages saying, ‘I am holding my position.’ We are not holding a xxxxxxx thing. Let "oklahoma" do that. We are advancing constantly and we are not interested in holding onto anything, except the enemy’s balls. We are going to twist his balls and kick the living xxxx out of him all of the time. Our basic plan of operation is to advance and to keep on advancing regardless of whether we have to go over, under, or through the enemy.”
George Patton was a Tennessee fan!
