Dooley will finally get his signature win this Saturday!!!

bottom line: Dooley will have to get a "signature win" in the next few years to keep his job. Only beating the little teams you are supposed to beat is not good enough except for teams like Vandy. If things stay the same reckoning will come 2013 or 2014.

Did you also think we were going to win 8-9 games and play in the Cotton Bowl after the Cincy game. Just asking

We can still win 8 games if we win out.

I hope we win, I also hope they decide to show the game over here. However I doubt either will happen. :(

didn't seem to work that way against South Carolina with their 2nd team qb and freshman rb ... just sayin'.

Arkansas' defense isn't as strong as South Carolina...plus, that was Worley's first game in college against a top 15 team, and hadn't even thrown a pass in a game yet. I would say that he was just a wee little bit nervous. Granted, this will be his first game on the road in a hostile environment, but I don't see him being as nervous as he was against SC. I hope that equates to scoring at least 20+ points...and I hope that the improvement our defense has been showing over the past few weeks will continue.

The same people calling for an upset will be the same ones making excuses for why we lost by 3 or more touchdowns after the game is over.

I won't make any excuses if we lose by that many points, and I called an upset....TN 27 Arky 23.

Most fans know by all accounts we should not win but it doesn't mean we should not cheer for our Vols

Has anyone noticed our depleted secondary? Arkansas slings it around... Not really a desirable matchup

It's absurd to believe your team can win. We should all curse the coaches and go cry ourselves to sleep

They put up 44 on a really good SC defense that is better than our defense. Tyler Wilson is the best qb we will face this year! I believe we can score on them, but I don't believe we are geared for a shootout! Bray is a great shootout guy, but worley probably isnt ready to have to throw enough to hang with arky! If it's a low scoring game our chances are much better!

I know there is a good chance we won't win on Saturday, but that won't keep me from acting like we will win all week.

This does not mean I'm naive, it's just who I am as a fan (short for "fanatic", look up the definition). To each thier own.

Arkansas is in better shape program and roster wise than UT at the moment... but I wouldn't call them a signature win.

Have you seen Worely's passing stats from high school? He throw the ball 40-50 times every game? I think he's ready for a shootout arm wise.

May not fit the definition of "signature win" but it would be his first sec road win aginst a ranked opponent.

A win this weekend would make me happy as H#ll.

For some reason, I firmly believe that Dooley and co. finally get that signature win against the Razorbacks this Saturday. No, I'm not drunk, high, nor insane. Just have a good feeling about this weekend.

Positive things happen to positive people. I'll probably be bashed, but SO WHAT!!!! It's time we stand up and support our team instead of verbally bashing them left and right. Go Vols!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rock:


Freak,

You might want to consider banning the constant "Negative Nellies".

I'd like to think he will but you have to be real about it. The Hogs beat the crap out of the Gamecocks. I thought UT matched up well against USCe and that it would be a Vol win. That's why I don't bet on college football. I don't think UT matches up well against the Hogs but like I said before.....................

Line up play hard hope for a few pick 6's, a Devrin Young return for TD and a few fumble recoveries, no TO's for us and we could pull off our 2nd win aganist top 20 team this year..... with 90% Fresh & Soph's.

Cincy wasn't close to being ranked when we played them. They aren't a top 25 team they benefit from an easy schedule and horrible conference. But I hope they win out and go to a bcs bowl. And hope like hell we can beat Arky but I can't see how its even close. We gotta hope for them to turn it over and us not to. Go Vols!
