The hand wringing about our injury situation has gone too far. The defeatism has gone way too far.

This is a tough match-up for anyone. It's a 1000 mile road game. But we are better at every position (except LB). Not a lot better - but better. Coaching and 60 minute effort will be the diffetence.

My one concern is the weirdness surrounding Jalen Hurd and the possible distraction there.

We haven't lost this game. We've got what we need to win. We can't spot them the first half but we arent going to do so. We're bringing the fight 1000 miles for 60 minutes. It will be our true coming out game. No miracle hail Mary; no crazy 2nd half comeback; no sleepwalking through 2 quarters. We gone whip dey azz. Vols win by 10 and it won't be that close.

I'm having a great week. I see it as we are already behind by 17 to start the game. Their backs are already against the wall. They have no choice but to come out hot and stay hot all game. WGWTFA

I love the optimism too, I think we will win as well, but I like your av even better.

The caption should read "don't be sad Dawg fan, you were still winning when this pic was taken".

I want to be positive and this thread helps. We don't match up well but I truly believe we have a little destiny on our side.

I will say this... As much hype we got pre season, it's almost reassuring to be 5-0 and have so many detractors in the media.😜

We ain't walking into a gun fight with a knife, we have all the tools A&M has and then some. Coaching will be the difference in this game and we have an edge there and come out with a hard fought win. It may not be pretty, but as long as it's a W I'll take it!!!! GBO!!

I am glad I clicked on this thread . All this whining and giving up is driving me nuts. Until that clock hits zero's I think this team has a chance. GBO!

I'm right there with you. I've been saying all along that our season up to this point (UGA game) would be an emotional rollercoaster ride considering how the schedule was set up.

Maybe I'm crazy but this feels like it's been the best, most overall sane week (during the season) on VN since I've been here.
