Set down the kool aid for one second.

More like 2-3 seasons. Fans paying attention realize Florida caught about 20 breaks in a row, plus a few miracles, in 2012.

I see a few close calls in 2012, but still, an 11-2 record from the outside looks pretty impressive.

driskel maybe a bad qb but he ran all over us in 2012. he could do it again saturday.

Only this is a totally different defense.

Our problem is, anyone with an athletic D that can get after the QB (Florida) is going to give us enough trouble to keep the game close.

50-50 for me. Florida still has too much talent not to be taken seriously. I'll be interested to see how our boys bounce back after such a tough loss this past weekend.

I am so impressed with our young team that I have decided to fly the 900+ miles and take my mom, avid vol fan, to her very first game-day experience. I remember what it was like in 2004, and would give anything to relive that day. But if we were to set down the perverbial kool-aid, and attempt to temper expectations... what do you think are the realistic odds that we beat the gators?

Any predictions on a betting line?

This best sums up what will happen on Saturday. The team that runs the ball the best will win. In the last 23 meetings, the team with the most rushing yardage has won the contest.

you mean the 2012 season in which we had the worst D in the 118 years of playing football,with no speed to be found anywhere,with 2 of the most inept coaches of all time leading us? seems legit and sounds reasonable...


Dooley isnt here anymore

I don't like making predictions ... knock on wood. But I believe we have a very good chance, a very good chance of ending the drought.

Take care of your mom. She's a VFL and all that but the very most important thing for her is being with you. Stay the gentleman who has good character and sportsmanship she wants to see. Squire her around as if she's the queen of your life. Which she really is, the queen mother.

Hope you have one of the best family times possible, and a UT win would be the icing on the cake.
