I told myself just get through these two west games, win or lose, and finish sealing the east and be happy. I told myself we had proven enough even if we didn't beat the number 8 and number 1 teams in the country. That it was all ok, even with a loss to Bama.

It all made sense. All those close finishes had to come to an end. We are beat the hell up and living on jet fumes. Heck we just lost yet another starting defender tonight. So after A&M I told myself it was a good respectable showing and a possible Bama loss was nothing to be bummed about.

I lied though. That A&M finish only left me wanting more wins and less turnovers. Watching Jumper defy odds and Kamara break records made me get the feels. 120 has me drunk on winning. They got me sky high on the idea of cleaning up a decade of mediocrity. NOW. Not season by season.

So for this week I'm going all in. My hopes are in the stratosphere and my expectations through the roof. I want to watch team 120 blow em out, rip the goal posts down and throw them at Bama's team bus. I want to watch this team march right to the top of the hill and knock the **** eating grin right of Saban and all those Walmart band wagon fans.

I believe too OP. Just like I believed we would beat A&M. And we would have, in their house, if not for 7 turnovers and a plague of injuries at key positions. We can and will beat Bama this weekend. Neyland is gonna be rocking. DK and Hurd will be back. There's blood in the water boys and team 120 can taste it.

Is DK back for sure? Because the statement in the press conference I heard was Jumper and Kirkland would be on the field at the same time "when" he returned.

I'm ready to watch 120 give em ever loving war. Erase blocked kicks, blowouts, and 9 years of tainted Bama stickers creeping across our state.

We may not be able to field a full team after this game but that's why they make bye week.

We know how this team performs with their back against the wall. This is a must win game, their backs are against the wall. Maybe this loss is what they needed. Besides that, Saban has always struggled with dual threat QB's, and so that gives us a better chance, in my opinion.

What sucks is they have one to practice against now.

this started at the UGA game in 2015. Jeremy pruett has came from UGA and is now DC for Bama. Word is Debord has his# and can anticipate his schemes. UT won't fair well running into the LOS but the real problems for Bama start with Dobbs mobility and the versatility and speed of Kamara. Bama has match-up problems due to these two factors. Our offense has really been clicking when we manage to hold onto the ball. We have a great chance. Our fans won't let us down...let's rock Neyland this Sat. GO BIG ORANGE!!! :gun::bash::machgun::gun::pepper::shaking2::::yahoo:::pepper::spank::punch_bag::bammer:

When will it ever be enough???? Haven't these players proven themselves??? Why can't we be proud of their accomplishments and love them for who they are??? It seems the more they give the more we want! This fan base is never satisfied! And to be completely honest I'm being totally facetious with what I previously said and agree with you 100%!!!! We're 2 for 2 against rivals this season. Let's make it 3!!!!! Let's kick all three of Bama's teeth in and send them back home to their mama/sister/cousin!!! GO VOLS!!!!

Not to knock the great positive vibe in this thread, but where have you heard "the word" that Debord has Pruett's number? Honest question. I like our odds against Bama as much as the next Kool-aid drinker, but I haven't exactly heard the word that Debord has the mystical ability to anticipate Pruett's schemes.
