I’ll admit after the USCjr game I thought our chances of making a bowl were gone but after seeing the way we played against KY my hopes have been restored. When this team has the right attitude, motivation, coaching, and scheming we have a chance to win. I honestly think we have a chance to win out or at least split the remaining two games. But I was curious what everyone else thought. Do we win out, lose out, or split the last two games?

We've been improving week to week. I don't see why we don't win both. These boys are bought in and hungry to win. There was a different look in their eyes Saturday that we haven't seen in a long time. It's about to get fun again on Rocky Top

We can win both games. The O-Line needs to do what it did against KY and that is get an immediate push. Most of this season, the O-line has been pushed around. Just go back and watch the games. Lots of times the line is pushed back 2 - 4 steps from the line of scrimmage. That wasn't the case at all against KY.

The D line looked possessed. To me, that was their best game up front on the D-line. If we can stop the run and pressure the QB with Mizzou, we can beat them. On offense, if the O-line breaks some holes and pushes forward and not get taken back, the Offense will have a big day.

Need to win the Missouri game. Don't wanna go to Nashville having to win, that would give Vandy extra incentive to beat the Vols

They're playing better right now than they have all year. Nothing has come easy and these last two won't be easy. Get one at least so the season continues.

It's hard to believe the Vols will win out, but I do honestly think they are trending in the right direction. Saturday was impressive. They played with a level of intensity that I have not seen in a long time. Of course, that can come and go from week to week. If CJP and company can bring that team to the field this weekend, I think UT will give Missouri all they can handle.

Missouri is a little bit Jekyll and Hyde, but they are a good football team. Tennessee could play fairly well and still lose.

Missouri isn’t as good as Florida made them look. That’s a winnable game. So is Vandy. UT has a legit shot at finishing 7-5. Mizzou is a tougher out than Vandy.

They're a decent team. They're multiple on offense, have a few pieces on defense. They're very beatable though.

I think our youth means that we drop one and win one. My money is on beating Vandy and losing to Mizzou by a close margin. Hope I am wrong about Mizzou.

I don't know. I saw the South Carolina game as a step backwards, giving up that double digit lead. Looked exactly like the Dooley and Butch years. I hope we don't take another step backwards next week, coming off this high. With a team that still needs lots of work, it's very possible. I'd love to see them prove me wrong and come out strong for 60 minutes.

Mizzou is going to be a tough tough game.

KY’s QB still had several plays where he had all day to throw, Drew Lock will pick us apart if we give him that. Bentley threw daggers on us when we gave him time, and he’s nowhere near the gunslinger Lock is.

Lock will get his stats this game, we have to be able to score with them. I don’t think we win this game unles we put up 30+ on them.

Depends upon which team Coach Pruitt leads out of the locker room.
The team that scored one offensive touchdown against Charlotte (a team that gave up 49 points to Massachusetts, 45 points to Appalachian State, even 25 to the powerhouse at Old Dominion..) will lose BOTH.
The team that spanked Kentucky in every phase of the game will WIN BOTH.
Go Big Orange..!!
