in the country! It's ridiculous! We take the backseat to nobody! Our fanbase deserves to expect a win when we are better than the other team. Our offense is almost no different if not better than last year. Our OLine will get it together with the return of Hall and we will have at least 400+ yards of offense. We have been sleepwalking for 3 games. The biggest difference between this squad and team 119 is Bob Shoop. Our defense will only get better as the game drags on. Let's end this streak! Even if it's an ugly 27-24 or an absolute slaughter 38-10, we will win this game. Let's go Vols!

I recall many dismissed the close losses last year by trotting out the fact that the only thing that matters is Ws and Ls. While this year they gripe about close wins.

Against inferior opponents. Nobody last year thought we were vastly better than Oklahoma, Florida, or Alabama--splitting hairs, maybe thought we were equivalent to OK, had a shot at AL, and we anticipated a win against FL except for the ******n streak--and we were probably better than Arkansas. We haven't looked great against weaker competition than that so far this year, and please don't pretend we have. Like the previous poster said, if we beat Florida we will be the most optimistic fan base, myself included, and we will have reason to be. Getting that f***ing monkey off our back is the most essential win up to ATL that we can have this year. We can always beat Bama in the SECCG if we get there, we can't play catch up to Florida, and lose 12 in a row, and feel optimistic. Tomorrow is huge, so GBO.

Has anyone predicted that if we win, D4H comes roaring back to the boards talking about how he was just trying to get good karma on our side?

Wins or Losses, simply disappointed with the product on the field and struggling to understand the reason

Well when you start out #9 and are #14 after being 3-0....

it's just the way they've looked on their way to being 3-0. with this much upper classman talent it doesn't make sense why we're not seeing what we saw against Northwestern. that's why everyone is upset. we all know how good the offense can be when everything is clicking.

I guarantee we will be the most disappointed 3 - 1 fanbase in college football history.

And rightfully so. Won't ever have a better chance. Time to win the MF'er!

Don't normally agree with everything you say but this is spot on

Reading these threads this week, I would say we are the most overrated fan base. I'm a little embarrassed.

Totally agree. We're no better than any other fanbase. You can say we're "compassionate" all you want too but right now we look like a bunch of whiny girls who's still never satisfied when we're winning. Embarrassing.

I'm glad we are 3-0. However even Ray Charles can see that we're not playing good football. To say "Hey we're 3-0, be happy" is simply choosing to be blissfully ignorant of the situation. If we cant improve our on field performance starting today,we're about to go on an 0-4 run and this coaching staff could very well lose this team.

We are in a GREAT position right now. 3-0 and have a chance to almost seal the east by winning the next 2 games. Beat Florida and then UGA!
