I've been a Vol fan for almost 30 years now so I remember the glory days well when we still couldn't manage to beat Florida on a regular basis. That being said, I do think this year is our best shot in a while. Tennessee, however, has some apparent weaknesses that I'm really hoping don't show up tomorrow: 1. Special teams: This is been pretty bad so far in the first 3 games, especially against Pitt. The good news is I think it's something that can be fixed with better coaching 2. Running game: This is supposedly where Florida struggles to defend but in the games I've watched so far, Tennessee doesn't have a very good run game. Basically Pitt is the game that really matters and we were godawful even after including Hooker in rushing attempts. We also have two banged up running backs going into tomorrow which is not good. Take the running game out and we're one-dimensional which by the way I feel like we were last year as well. Not sure why the coaching staff always says "it starts with the run game" when we simply don't seem to be able to run against anyone that matters 3. Secondary: Our secondary is the worst I've seen in a while. This is where I'm REALLY concerned about tomorrow. I don't care that Richardson isn't that great at passing because our corners and safeties are equally putrid.
I hope they prove me wrong tomorrow!
