A few weeks ago I was looking at this game as an easy win. Then we went out and had consecutive lackluster performances against SC and NT, Dobbs got banged up, our O-line continued to struggle with injuries, and Mizzou seemed to find some rhythm on offense last week for the first time in a while against a good BYU team. Not to mention that we may be walking into a perfect storm when you look at the emotional craziness going on up there, and it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Drew Lock have his best game yet against us (just because such things always seem to come against us). Now, after all that, I'm thinking we'll be sweating this one out till the very end, just like SC and UGA.

UT-23 (yeah, that's a lot of field goals)
Mizzou-17

I hear ya, but...

Defense and running games travel well. Passing games, especially ours, do not. I think we will be good.

I've hit the nail on the head one time, 37-17 against UK in 2012. It's definitely tough to do.

I picked this years Western Carolina game to be 55-3. And that was the score until our 3rd stringers gave up a long TD late to make it 55-10. Only time I've been remotely close.

This week I'll go 31-12 Vols.
