Vols Chances in 2007

[Volsfan895]

With our inability to win most big games....what I want to know is your opinion on how we will do next season?

 

[jakez4ut]

8-4/9-3. a lot like this year.

 

[GoVols817]

8-4/9-3. a lot like this year.

8-4 is about right, but i think we will be a better team... Too bad our toughest games are road games and UGA and SC are on the way up.

 

[Alley]

We'll lose to teams we used to beat...and squeak by the teams we used to laugh at.

 

[rockydoc]

Peach, Outback, Cotton, Music City, Independence Bowl.......pick one.

 

[ttrogvol]

o cmon, we still have realistic shots at the SEC Championship and the NC with our talent. Its not like we were blown out 4 times this year.

 

[champyvol]

Peach, Outback, Cotton, Music City, Independence Bowl.......pick one.

7-5 music city baby and a raise for fulmer a job well done. way to stay on top.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

This has got to stop lets think if Ainge dosent get hurt. Chances are we beat LSU and have a better shot at Arky. the PSU game was a bad game from every stand point but we do have alot to build on c'mon guys...

 

[docbarnes]

I am waiting until Hamilton offers a mail in rebate half way through the season. First game could be ugly. Not hard to defend against two and three yard screen passes and Fulmers bread and butter (O-Line). If Meachem leaves we could be in for a long season. Our inability to get guys open worries me the most about next season.

Let's say the Vols do improve by fall '07.
What do you think other teams are trying to do, sit on their hands? Other 'big name' teams that improve will have the advantage over the Vols; that advantage being better coaching staff.

All I can say about that prediction is: Crack Kills.

Doc, welcome aboard. Good to see someone else trained in the scientific method of reasoning. I've felt like the voice crying in the wilderness for too long.:rock:

 

[bearcub347]

Who gives us the one loss?

South Carolina (especially if Sid Rice is still there).


Our schedule is tougher than you would expect.

Two of our easier games, Southern Miss and Mississippi State, are HUGE trap games.

 

[Heebs]

Why can't we do well? We have an easier schedule. Cal won't be as good without Lynch. We will beat southern miss, at UF will be a very hard game, well beat NIU without wolfe, UCF sucks, Georgia is NOT on the way up and its at home- thats a W, at Miss St? Please. At Bama will be tough but its def a winnable game just like 2005. We will beat South Carolina at home. Arkansas will be tough if they replicate this year which i doubt. Then Vandy and Ark? please thats 11-1, maybe 10-2. SEC Championship if UF doesnt go.

 

[General Jack]

We'd be better off playing GA on the road. Lost to them in Neyland the last 3 trips. And two of them we lost big.

 

[blaker024]

San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl.

 

[bearcub347]

I really am tired of how a bad bowl game can completely blind some people.

--Tons of talent (top 5 recruiting class 2004)
--Returning nearly every one in the trenches
--Legit gamebreakers in Meach (if back) and Coker
--An experienced, smart Senior quarterback

I don't care which game it is. When you have an experienced, smart QB, we can win any game.

Absolutely no excuses next season...they must win at least 9 games and their bowl game.

Blind?

Seems to me they had all your points that you listed, during the bowl game. Didn't seem to be enough?

With a good coach, all the talent we will have next year i say nothing less than playing for a N.C.

I guess well see if the round belly ball coach is good or not.
