My hopes (and I do have hope) for a win hinge on Florida being lucky to be 3-0 and due a reality check, being down key players on both sides of the ball, just losing their starting QB, and his replacement not having started a football game since he was in the ninth grade. BTW, how does someone who couldn't even start in HS become and SEC QB? There's gotta be a story there.
Our boys should be fired up on Saturday. Ready to prove something. We’ve seen improvement since the first horrific loss, and Florida is battling many injuries. This game is setting up to be an upset for us, as long as we come out and play hard. What do you guys think? Saturday can’t come soon enough. GBO

Sometimes it is a legitimate statement, like in 2016, when we clearly were the better team, it was in Neyland, and they had to start a backup QB (Appleby).If I had $100 for every time I heard this
This is one of the ffffffuuuuunnnnest posts of all time!!!!!You know, I think there's something to this optimism and it's bleeding over to enrich other areas of my life.
Celebrating years of surgery and healing it took for me to just walk, I will again attempt to glide from that 50' elm to the roof of the house using nothing but glued up, cardboard sheets from Amazon delivery boxes as wings.
This time will be gloriously different!

Bc where else will they get to strut their "true fan" status?I've been reading these posts all week and I keep asking myself the same question: what the hell are you all doing here? Why waste your time? Good grief. Y'all are the ones Fulmer was referring to back in '08 when he talked about the Legions of the Miserable. There's nothing wrong with thinking that Tennessee is going to get beat or even destroyed. Sometimes it's better to be realistic than optimistic. But if you're so convinced that this team is so terrible, why are you wasting your time on a football forum brow-beating everyone who dares to believe that this team can pull off an upset? A lot of you are acting like a bunch of trolls, imposters from other schools. I've read a lot of negativity and overreaction on this forum over the years but nothing like I've seen this year.
Is Tennessee likely to win Saturday? No. Is Tennessee capable of winning Saturday? Hell yes. This Florida team is not as good as its No. 9 ranking indicates. And this Tennessee team sure as hell isn't as bad as its 1-2 start indicates. The Georgia State game loss was terrible and inexcusable. I get that. But if UT had come out and beaten GaSt 35-7, nobody would be poor mouthing the OT loss to BYU the next week. The GaSt loss was an aberration. It shouldn't have happened, but it did and now it's in the past. If you can't get behind this team, that's on you and it's certainly your prerogative to feel that way. But why do you want to spend so much time and energy dragging everyone else down to your same level of misery?
