This is going to be a war. Make no mistake. Tennessee has played great against Georgia with their backs against the wall going all the way back to 07. I expect nothing but more of the same. It's a perfect setup for Tennessee to upset Georgia. Georgia coming off a big win and Tennessee underperforming to this point. Same book, different chapter. 04 comes to mind, UGA slaughters NC Champ LSU, UT loses to Auburn, Tn wins 19-14. 07, very similar to this year, 35-14 in saving Fulmer's job for a year, it can happen, and here is how.

1. Create turnovers
2. Make Fromm look like a freshman-pressure
3. Contain the run, can't stop it but force 3rd downs making Fromm make decisions
4. On offense, quick slants, WR bubble screens, RB screens. Keep the DL honest and get playmakers in the secondary, their weak link.
5. Score early, gain confidence. Overcoming 24-3 and 17-0 deficits the last two years against UGA will be harder to overcome with this defense. Less than 20 points has been scored on the 1st string defense for UGA.
6. Hit 300 yards offense-no one has done it yet this year and Mullen for the first time in his career was under 300
7. Last, time of possession, take control of the game

Here is the stats against UGA defense, this was in the 3rd, MSU got some yards in the 4th,

I'm more confident that the "FLU BUG" gives all the starters on both sides of the ball 103 degree fevers so they don't even make the trip.....THEN I feel really good about our chances. Because our offense has struggled since last season to get going in 1st halves.....and with this team odds in a fast start are slim and none.

I guess I don't understand all the crazy negativity. Yes I realize we looked bad vs Umass but we also beat Ga Tech which beat last yr Georgia team between the hedges. In other words every Sat is different let's get loud and get behind our team Sat. And see what happens. Let's just quit crowning Georgia and acting like we have no shot! 👍😎

GA will show up all full of piss and vinegar like they always do and we will take them to the the wire like we always do.
We're playing at home, this is a 3 point +/- game in the end.

GA doesn't show up.

This, UGA looks past us considering how bad we've looked as of late. The team gets tired of the negativity from the media and the fans and comes out fired up and ready to get after it. Also feel we would need to score from somewhere besides offense, either a punt return, kick return or a defensive TD of some sort.

On special teams, they have brought in specialist grad transfers in a punter, kicker, and KR specialist. Kickoff and K still remained the same as he beat out the transfer. He has kicked 9 straight kickoffs out of the end zone. Punter is #1 in the nation at -4 yards allowed on punts. Best chance is picking off Fromm for a pick 6 although they don't throw much (12 passes against MSU) and he only has one Int on the year. Put pressure on a freshman and anything is possible.

I love the vols but they ain't winning this one. They would have to use hand grenades to keep their D out of the backfield.

Just have the quarterback tell the guys in the huddle just run where ever the hell you want to but just look up for the ball. Ill throw it to somebody.. and anything from 10 yards in we are giving it to you kelly so be ready..it might take us 4 tries but you are gonna get in there..and the defense captain will tell the rest of them jam the recievers at the line of scrimnage and dont let them pass you...lineman come off the ball quicker and get closer to the neutral zone to get a second or two quicker...we need at least two or three people around the ball carrier when tackles are made...if you get a reciever to torch you or you make a stupid penalty get ready to ride the pine..quarterback if you dont show me anything on the first two series you to will be riding the pine..next one up its your turn to make something happen..

Yes every saturday is different...but not for the vols...main reason Georgia is going to humliate us on national television at home is yet once again Butch Jones gets out coached and has about as much game time decision making as Martha Stewart...and this georgia team is 100% better than last years team..which we are 100% worse this year than last year so its not rocket science...if i had to pick a score now...georgia 42 - tennessee 17

If you think this defense is tough wait till we play alabama...we will lose by at least 45 to 55 points...we will be down 35 to 38 points at half time..then get the 2nd string to score at will on us too...just like they did against vanderbilt..
