How upset will you be if we lose to WV?

WVU is hardly "mediocre". And a MUCH better team than we are presently. No shame in losing to a better team.

7-6 in the big 12 and beating 2 teams with a winning record is as mediocre as you can get. And being ranked in the 100's in total defense makes you mediocre at best.

W.Va will never have a good defense. They finished 106th in total defense last year.W.Va padded their numbers against really slow and bad Defense's. They finished 7-6 in a mediocre Big 12. Don't expect them to be much better this yr.

Well Jason, this is a welcome correction. :hi:
 
pissed we should not lose to west virginia. we owe steriod grier a beating. a loss will tell us what kind of coach pruitt is. we should never tolerate a coach that can't win out of conference games against mediocre opponets. especially when you have almost 9 months to prepare. a loss means we have some coaching issues first year coach or not.
WV is expected to be a top 10 team in 2018. Hardly mediocre...
 
Extremely disappointed?

Understanding it’s part of the rebuilding process?

Wanting to fire Pruitt? (Blue font)

I’ll only be disappointed if we get blown out and don’t put up much of an effort.

This is going to be a tough start for CJP, particularly if the o-line is thin/unhealthy. WV will score some points.....maybe lots. UT is gonna have to find a way to keep up in a possible boat race.
 
I am pleasantly surprised when we win any game against any team now. Currently we are the 2nd or 3 rd best program in the state. The program is in shambles, no bowl double digit loss to Vanderbilt. I will be watching but dreading every TV announcers/commentators recap of the last coaching search. Whatever happens this season I accept and move on.
 
New weak offense with poor offensive line, very poor secondary, good coaching vs
West Virginia very strong offense...Looks like a West Virginia win something like 37-17.
Same bat channel, same bat station as last year in terms of wins against good teams. The season will be determined by the outcome of Florida game. Could be near the same season as last year despite very good coaches due to Butch Jones player legacy..

Yep. Too many around here are accepting mediocrity. WVU isnt a good team.

If yall expect us to lose by 30 then we have the wrong coach.
 
Based on analytics (posted and explained in detail by daj2576) the team with the best signing classes wins 70% of the time. So here are the last four class rankings according to 247 Sports

Vols WVU
2017 17 57
2016 14 39
2015 4 35
2014 7 39

If CJP is who we hope he is Vols by 10 is my call. Made this Friday the 13th of April 2018 and witnessed by VN.

Come on Smith and Hall GET HEALTHY!!
