Is this weekend the most sure loss in UT football history?

Will Sat be worse than 1906 Alabama 51-0?

Do the Vols cover the 33 points spread at halftime?

In 2015, CBJ didn't even speak to the team about the then FL-10-game losing streak -- you know he's not going to be speaking about the 1906 loss.

only the next game matters, it seems.

It will be as bad as Saban wants it. Even when Saban plays the scrubs they will continue to score because they're eager to prove themselves.

Why isn't tn this way - where the scrubs keep the route going as they are eager to prove themselves???

Asking for a friend

No. Saban will call off the dogs before then.

No.

He's never been one to call the dogs off ask Vandy and Ole Miss this year. He has a back up QB that needs to continue developing and is probably better than Hurts and definitely is as a passer. They are a run first team and dominate doing it. He won't tell his guys to stop playing or running hard. I've seen them throwing this year in the 4th up 5 TD's. It's up to our D to stop them they won't just kneel on the ball up 35-42 pts. They go 4-5 deep at RB and their 4th string guy could start at most SEC schools. And with our inability to score TD's or move the ball I am not sure we even score unless we get a turnover or catch them out of position. We definitely won't be able to run on them and not sure JG will have much time to find a receiver. He doesn't need to take the hits he took last week or we won't finish the game. It's gonna be a long day and I can easily see a 49-3, 56-3 type game.

Good chance this will be the worst beat down the history of UT sports, and it will happen on the 3 sat. of oct. I, for one, will have a box tissues close at hand. I hope my heart makes it through the game.

Honestly, we should put Will McBride in there and let him go Johnny football on them. JG has no idea what's coming for him, and I don't see the point of letting him get his head knocked off. I think Butch is TRYING to get fired at this point. Keeping Taylor out of this game boarders on criminal.

Running up the score on us is like shooting fish in a barrel! It won't prove that 'Bama can do anything to us,that we didn't already know they could do. We already know that Tennessee isn't man enough to do anything about it! Actually, Tennessee hasn't been man enough in a long time!

I Hurts goes down, UT is in for a world of hurt. Tua is the real deal, much better in the passing game than Jalen.

Don't doubt that for one bit....said the other day my hope was that Saban put in the 3rd string to start the game and proceed with the kick off !

Saban doesn’t call the dogs off, he pulls starters. He’s like Belicheck and calls aggressive plays on O and D with the 2nd and 3rd string in to get them ready and keep his bench of 5*s happy. This is one of the main reasons that Bama doesn’t rebuild, they reload. This is what 2016 should have been for us. We should have known Dormady wasn’t the guy due to him playing and throwing the entire 4th quarter of 7 games last year. But Butch Butched and we were in dog fights in 6 of those games.

If the roles were reversed, we would not let up, uproot the field, tear down their stadium, deface their statues, paint the streets yellow, and do other things that might be in clear violation of the Geneva convention.

So, no, I expect no mercy from them.

He does not want to beat Butch too bad because it's in his best interest for Butch to stay around as long as possible:)

It doesn't matter how bad he beats us Butch is gone regardless. Doubt Saban is worried about ANY teams HC. I guarantee he would much prefer his team getting challenged and making them better and to stay focused. Hard to maintain focus on teams you are beating the brakes off of on a yearly basis.

You know, there is a lot of crap going on as of late but I personally have not ruled out and will not rule out this game will be worth watching. Tag me how you will but I still want to believe. I also have a good remote with fresh batteries if the channel needs to be changed !

Don't wish injuries by no means but I know how it went when Latimore went down, how Chubbs going down helped.....God forbid Hurts goes down BUT....

It would be worse... have you seen that freshman play?

This type of game could net Saban and his friends some big money from Vegas -- He controls all the buttons if they wager on it

Georgia beat our vols 41-0
Pappy Nicky will want to better that result to keep the braggarts happy.

in short, YES. 66-0 Tide, but... Butch resigns saturday night after the loss.

Those of you who are astute in your observations have read my recipe for an upset - 8 Bama turnovers inside their own 20. The Vols score 3 FGs, 3 TDs, and turn it over twice on downs, trying to punch it in for 6 instead of settling for 3. Well, that's only 30 points. Vegas seems to think the Vols still lose in my scenario. Go figure...

Yea against a team that doesn't turn it over and vs a D that doesn't cause Turnovers. Not happening.
