Provided we do win out bowl included. 5 quality wins and 3 cup cakes.
I was expecting to win in the range of 5 - 7 regular season games.
We won 7, and Miss. had to cheat to win.
I'm impressed by the way JH took the situation he was given when he arrived, brought in players from the portal, and formed a pretty good team.
I'm convinced we have a good coach. Can he become elite? Time will tell.
I'm pleased at this point.

Our losses were to Pitt, UF, Bama, Ole Miss, and UGA. We were underdogs in all of those games, yet Ole Miss was winnable if Hooker is in the game on the last drive, went toe to toe with Bama for 3 qtrs, would have beaten Pitt handily had Hooker started, and scored more on UGA than any team this year. We also beat a ranked KY on the road.
Heupel has done a bang up job in year one. Only truly disappointing game was UF, only because of seeing how bad they are now.
So few programs ever win a National Championship. Even for great teams so much has to go right, especially in the current football landscape, to make that a realistic goal.No more looking back, look only forward. The rest of the SEC and even beyond that have laughed enough about us being living in the past Vols. Let's talk instead about the timeline for our becoming not only relevant again, but NC again.

Our conference is so formidable, that winning the SEC should be the main goal every year. If you do that...the National Championship then becomes a possibility, and the new goal. But it's icing on the cake. Honestly, to me...and many will disagree, the SEC Championship holds more importance. If you win that you have everyone else attention, because so few teams from other conferences could navigate the SEC successfully. It's special.
the road to a NC will get a lot more difficult starting in 2022. They are going to vote next month on going to 12 team playoff next year.
Goal has to be winning division and getting to the SEC Championship game. That will get you into the playoffs. But that just means no off game or fluke bounce of the football if you expect to win the NC.. Lots will have to go right.
I'm with you per my previous post. Honestly...I could care less about the NC. It's icing on the cake if you get there.the road to a NC will get a lot more difficult starting in 2022. They are going to vote next month on going to 12 team playoff next year.
