6-6? UT hasn't won a road game, hasn't won an SEC game, and beat arguably the worst team in the country, and now they're going to a bowl game? I doubt that Ole Miss and KY will roll over for us.

crud. i forgot about Josh Nesbitt. Yeah, UGA is going to roll Tech... UNLESS this new QB is a miracle backup. But yeah, i agree.. UGA goes to Nashvegas.

I would like to see us back at the Liberty Bowl or in the Music City Bowl. I think both organizers would be trying their hardest to get UT in their bowl games.

Let's just take it 1 game at a time. The extra pratices would be great if we can win 6 games. After the way the season started, any bowl would be an accomplishment.

Music City Bowl would be better for me because I don't want to go to that POS stadium they lovingly refer to as Legion Field.

Gotta get to 6-6 and bowl eligible first. .

What's worrying me the most about our team is the O-line. They had issues against Memphis with pass protection that concerns me. If Bray doesn't get time to throw the ball and our remaining opponents stack the box against the run then we won't be able to get to a bowl game. We need to roll Bray out of the pocket more IMO. .
but if we can protect Bray then we have receivers that can do wonders.

I live in Nashville and I don't think the Music City Bowl wants UT at all (if they have their choice). We would pack the stadium, but wouldn't bring as much revenue to the city as a traveling fanbase would.

IF, and that's a huge if, we get to 6-6, the MCB would take us. Considering that they struggle to sell tickets they would take the near certain sell out.

Actually Nashville would love to get the Vols in their bowl to bring in both West and East Tenn fans. No way they let them slip by if we are bowl eligible. Nashville would make just at much money if not more.

I think the offensive line has been made to look bad by circumstance ...yeah they are young but don't appear to be bad at what they look like.

It seems they are in the shotgun passing ...and then move to the I when they wish to run. The whole point of the I form is to be tricky and have the ability to do anything out out the formation. If the defense knows what you are about to do however ...no formation really works.

Look for zone blitzes against the gun forms ( sending more guys than blockers making the offensive line look bad )

Look for LBs attacking the gaps when in the run forms/ I form ...also making the Oline look bad.

It has been the story of the year.

If somebody would just put a degree of balance and deception into the formations and play calling ...these guys would be pretty good.

I see no reason for the results to change if the problems are not corrected. I think we flog vandy ...but the other two ...not so sure
