Tennessee -7 over Florida

[OrangeTsar]

Not true at all. You see that betting line moving Vols' way. Florida is doubting themselves in a big way.

And for the first time in a long time, I think our players have a healthy type of confidence based on results

 

[loservol]

I don’t know, seems like more think they’ll put the usual beat down on us

They are not going to walk into Neyland and lay down for the Vols. The Vols are getting exposed to too much radioactive sports media laden rat poison.

My book has Vols -9 1/2..seems high with our history with Fla..Hopefully Vegas knows something. Of course I thought us being favored over a higher ranked Pitt at their home was too high at 6 but they were right on.

Oh, it will be a tough game, just like Pitt. But when Pitt took lead, our guys just kept on playing.

 

[Volfan1000]

A 3 to 7 point spread seems right for this game.

While I’d love us to blow out Florida…JUST….WIN

 

[dduncan4163]

Judging by the commentary on swampgas UF fans expect a shellacking

I've noticed that too.

 

[lawgator1]

Just as Utah might have been a bit overrated, so is UF's win over them.

 

[JohnWardForever]

Vegas has been putting some stinky lines out there this year, like Okla 10 over Neb last week and Socal 12 over Fresno. They obviously wanted betters to think too much and possibly lay off the games. Hope this is what they are up to with Tennessee -7. My mind tells me UT should cover easily; based on FL's performances thus far, South Florida is a mess, and UF should have blown them out; coming off the Loss to UK.

Which is totally out of their control. All they can do is line up and play the game

 

[Jeff Clark]

I think Tennessee wipes Florida out winning by 17 45-28

 

[GetYouSomeofThat]

Was hoping for a bigger opening line. I know lines are just set to entice bettors, but that’s not a huge line considering we’re probably getting 5 for home, Gameday, Checkered, etc.

Is 5 for home a thing?

@lawgator1 Do you think Florida going on the road for the first time this season will have any impact on the outcome of the game? I don’t know much about Richardson but I would have to think that Neyland Stadium on Saturday will have an impact on the gators. Thoughts?

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

I guarantee our team isn’t taking Florida for granted. Having said that there is no reason to fear or tighten up either. We can play with Florida and we are capable of beating Florida. The past doesn’t mean squat. All records and streaks end at some point. Tennessee just has to go out there and prove it on the field. This team is going to be ready for that Saturday afternoon! GBO!!!!

 

[MADISONGAVOL]

Vegas has been on the money for all UT games this year - this one shouldn't be any different despite the history.

We can not turn over the ball and let their qb run rampant

Usually first road game is unsettling. Especially if the home team plays well.

 

[livefaith]

These are the games we have to win. The games that matter. Sure we beat a ranked Pitt team, that was a good win, but we could win every OOC game ever scheduled, but losing to FL, UGA, and Bama will get a coach canned.

Can we please get thier coaches canned for a while?

 

[livefaith]

Probably be getting ready to look for a new coach.
Muschump
McElwain
Mullen
Not a real good hiring record since Urban Meyer left.

And to think we win 1 (ONE) time against them over that entire period!

Of course. It's a young team, many will be flustered by the crowd. I expect some false start penalties for us, not that it matters since we have no passing game.

They will quickly get tired of him getting owned by Kentucky ,Georgia and splitting wins with Florida State.

It's not just AR either, I just don't see a solid SEC WR corps on the Gators sideline.

Now -10

It’s not always 3 like everyone thinks, it can be a bit more or less based on the situation.

For instance, Vandy isn’t going to be 3 points closer to Bama because they have them at home. And we are probably going to get more than a 3 point bump given the fact that our crowd is guaranteed to be deafening.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

OK with underdog in our own stadium. Will make it all the more sweeter.

Ummmm...that's not how it works.
