We will dominate so decisively that UT is in top 10 after weekend

Nah....my prediction is 35-17, Tennessee.

If that holds true, I see us jumping up to around 15th or 14th.

And that's about what we'd deserve. With a couple losses ahead of us the next week, we could possible be top ten by the UGA game. But I doubt it.

Same irrational fan base that wanted Dooley fired in December

For the record, I was not part of that faction.

I'm 100% behind dooley and would give him a raise now if I could. Win or Lose vs. Florida, I've seen enough to know this program has improved lightyears in his time.

Well said. That makes at least two of us.

make it three.

I find it funny the ones most intent that we are going to destroy Florida are the main mattress burners and if we lose will be the first ones to turn on coach and team.

Honestly losing this game would totally suck losing any game totally sucks. But, it would not and should not be surprising to anyone who understands football if we lose.

They actually match up very well against us. People are over blowing their secondary's struggles and their lack of dynamic WR's. The guys they have might not be all SEC but they are not the total scrubs people are making them out to be.

The season before Da'rick and Hunter came we had a similar batch of WR's as Florida has now and they turned out fine. Denaruis Moore went from unknown underachiever to NFL player of the week in a matter of one season. Before spring practice of his senior season most people didn't have him as a starter. Not saying Florida has Denarius Moore on their roster but seriously guys this is Florida they have guys walking around the streets 3 miles from campus that if they got their heads right and could make grades could be hall of famers and that's a fact. So them finding a headcase star wr or cb on their roster in the next 24 hours would not surprise me in the least.

My junior year of Highschool, my school(Alcoa) beat Maryville for the first time in nine years. Jaron Toney--who is now a DB for UT--rushed for over two hundred yards in that game. Alcoa won 41-24, and it wasn't even close. The past means nothing, anything is possible, and our Vols should win this game. GBO.

Everyone feels this way, until he loses. I hope to see him on the sidelines for a long time, but after all the hype of this week, if we lose this game, I see a major Volnation meltdown coming.

The same is true for FL fans. Muschamp's seat will be very warm with a loss to UT. It will be interesting to see the reaction of the loser's fan base.

I am hearing that there is some discussion of calling off the game because fan confidence has put the Vols over the top.

Edit: I am not sure how this will or should effect the rankings.

Umm....you haven't watched much Bray, I guess? This has never been an issue with Bray.

I remember an article just a few days ago just going on and on about how Bray has this mentality of he forgets about the pass once it leaves is hand and what not. He's just gotta pick his battles. Is he going to get picked off? Yes. Pick 6? Likely. I wanna see if he can determine when to throw that pass again (cause we all know he will) and went to pick a different option. Bray is, and some will disagree, out biggest asset and liability.

Teams are almost evenly matched in different ways. It will be like a war. So much hinges on the heart and chemistry of each team. Advantage Vols !!!

You're saying it's likely he throws a pick six?

Likely?

So you think there is at least a 51 percent chance that bray throws a pick 6 on saturday?

Really?

Bray is, and some will disagree, out biggest asset and liability.

Um, no. He is our biggest asset.

Our biggest liability is our kicking game.


But getting back to your original post, Bray is well-known for shaking off bad throws and moving on to toss multiple TDs.

You must be thinking someone else. Bray's issue last year was forcing throws and calling run plays.

He has fixed the forcing issue, and working on the calling run plays issue.

I expect a tough game that we ultimately win. Not concerned with rankings too terribly much, just win.

It appears YOU just started watching him, stalker.

From his very first game (immediate pick six, then come back to throw two TDs vs USC) he has shown an innate ability to shake off bad throws.

Now, get back under you bridge, kid.
