I don't bet, but if I did, I would take bama, Florida and Georgia to cover. I don't expect to win any of those games, but I do hope I'm wrong.

You won't be very popular in here with that. Bama has handled the Vols at Tuscaloosa; wining by double digits for a while. They will be in revenge mode. And besides inexperience at QB, (#3 Nationally rated Simpson now a Jr) they are loaded. Big advantage in depth over UT. Quite a challenge.

I'm not very popular anyway, I just try to keep it real.

That Florida game is late in the season. There won't be any early season jitters by new QB's. Unless we turn out to be a bust this year, we should win outright. Our D should be as good as last year. Possibly better. Our o line is sounding like they have improved if you listen to the talking heads. Our Running backs are capable. The receiver corps had to improve. The real question is what do we have at QB? We have 3 to pick from. By the end of November, one of them will have clenched the job and own it. Probably a lower scoring game, but we win.

Georgia seems really low. Over the past 8 years, we have lost by 24, 28, 14 (the magical '22 season, but scored 20 fewer points than our next lowest output that year), 24, 23, 28, and 26 points. So in the last 3 home games against the Dawgs, our loss margin has been an average of 26.5 points.

So far, I've taken us to cover vs 'Cuse and UGA -7.5. Bama is tempting. I don't know how I feel about Florida. That damn Swamp has been pissing me off for a long time, now.

We’ve actually played pretty well in Tuscaloosa the past 2 times we’ve been down. That 52-24 is pretty misleading in terms of how that game went. It was a 1 score game in the 4th and we just didn’t have the horses to hang at that point. 2023 we could’ve easily been up 3 or 4 scores. And last year I’d say we stopped ourselves w/ bad turnovers and missed deep balls more than they stopped us. I’m not saying it won’t be a big challenge, but I expect us to go down there and play well.

Bama has 2 home losses in the last 5 years. 2019 #1 LSU and 2023 # 6 Texas. Getting a W in D-BS is darn hard. 12.5 looks high but I need to see the both on the field first before I would put money down.

But I advise you NOT to bet on the Vols. I became a super critical and was an absolutely horrible fan.

That was mostly under Saban ( other than last year). Lets see how that holds up under their new coach.
