not a franklin tea bagger at all..just want to compete for an SEC championship..I honestly feel we could go 6-6 with most of the posters here as HC..I remember a few yrs ago that UT was 3-1 vs. Shula..and when Saban took over the cupboard was so bare that Ala had how many players selected in the 2008 NFL draft? NONE!!!! its not the losing that bothers me..its the lack of competing..every loss in the SEC has been double digits..goin to the Music City Bowl obviously excites many UT fans but I remember the days when we were a top 10 program and why not have those same expectations again!

Georgia?

Also, seriously, injuries. They're a thing. This is a more snakebit team than the 2002 team, which lost by three scores to Florida, Alabama, and Miami.

30 upperclassman, who were Vandy recruits. Just sayin. Franklin is getting more out of less, something I've yet to see Dooley accomplish.

You're absolutely right, going toe-to-toe with LSU and UNC until the final second last year doesn't count...we we L-O-A-D-E-D last year.

I stand corrected on Georgia..my bad..I had already found the exits and didnt expect Simms to lead us to a score..we only lost by 8..just noticed we are catching 16 pts tonight..Ark barely beat Miss and Vandy..the wind is going crazy which should effect the passing game..so here goes..takin UT and the points for 3 bills..I still love the vols..hope I was thinkin clear here!

38 to 8 against lowly KY is still good or even great for Vandy. I don't see us beating anyone 38 to 8 right now. I don't want to see Vandy beat TN, and I keep telling everyone it won't happen. But, when I take off my orange glasses, I'd bet on Vandy over TN this year. Hopefully Bray will be back, but I'm not sure it will even help right now.

And no, Im not a negavol. I hope we win them all and I still support Dooley. I'm just losing faith on "this" season regarding Vandy and/or a bowl game.

Vandy will beat Tennessee this year. Unfortunately.

I wish we had James Franklin as our coach because he seems to me to be a much better coach than Doo-little.

If he can win and go to a bowl at Vandy and have them in the Top 25 in recruiting (they are #25 on Rivals last I checked) then there is no telling what he could do with us. If Doo-little flubs up next year, then we should go after Franklin if some other team hasn't already hired him away from Vandy.

He is just speaking the truth. Here is the fair question, what would Franklins record be a at TN this year at this point? That is a fair question. As a TN fan for all my life I want the vols to win as many as they have the ability to win each year. In other words maximize the results you can have with what you have. Franklin does that. Can you say that about Dooley right now? I hope it changes and maybe it will, but will Dooley maxmize your results.

Some of you guys are amazing.....the Vols are starting their #3 QB that's a true FR...that has started against a one loss SCjr team and a one loss Arky team in two of his three starts.....the top two offensive weapons are injured....along with the team's best LB...what the hell do you morons expect Dooley to do under the circumstances?
