-I sure hope this isn't a "get right" game for Tennessee. It feels as such coming off their Texas loss. If so, queue Shane Falco sharing his 1996 Sugar Bowl experience-quicksand. However, hope does spring eternal. Just win baby!
-An Auburn win will require Brown protecting the football and the defense continuing to show up. Auburn is good enough to win, but we need to lock in on all phases to do so.
-I don't think Tennessee is really that good, but I also don't think we're good enough to beat them.
-We can't run the football, we haven't been able to all year. Tennessee's defense is crazy, they're going to being physical and push us around. Tennessee wins this one.
-Another slow start on offense will be disastrous in Knoxville. Put your money on The Vols.
-I think Golesh goes in and out coaches Heupel. You can call me crazy all you want, but if anyone knows Heupel, it's Golesh.
-I have not seen enough to think we have a shot in this game. Tennessee just played the #1 team in the country and only lost by 3. I'm afraid they might run us out of Neyland fairly quick.
-Tennessee is something we are not: PHYSICAL
-Both teams want to do the exact same thing: spread the field with massive, wide splits, run lightning-fast tempo, and throw deep choice routes. It’s going to come down to pure execution and who stops the run better.
-If we can hit a few early chunk plays and force Tennessee away from their ground game, we put the pressure squarely on their quarterback to go score-for-score with us. If we let them dominate time of possession, we're in trouble.
-Imagine the absolute meltdown in Knoxville if Heupel loses at home to his former assistant. If we jump on them early, that stadium is going to get incredibly tense, incredibly fast.
-Knowles has that Vols front seven playing lights out right now. They kept Tennessee in the game against Texas even when Heupel's offense couldn't move the ball. If our offensive line can't handle the stunts and blitzes Knowles throws at us, Byrum Brown is going to be running for his life all afternoon.
-Anyone expecting a win on Saturday is completely delusional.
-This has 'disaster' written all over it. Everyone on this board keeps talking about Alex Golesh having the 'insider blueprint' on Heupel. Guess what? Heupel has the blueprint on Golesh too! He knows exactly how to stop this offense because he helped create it. If we go three-and-out on our first two drives, Neyland is going to swallow this team alive.
-Knowles is a defensive genius for a reason. He’s going to run those disguised safety blitzes and completely take away the middle of the field. If we can't hit the deep shots on the outside because our WRs can't beat SEC press coverage, our entire offense stalls out. We’ll be staring at 3rd and 12 all afternoon.
-I’ve seen this movie before. We look decent against mediocre teams, the fanbase gets hyped up thinking we've turned a corner, and then we go into a hostile SEC stadium and look like we've never played football before. Expect 5 pre-snap penalties, 2 turnovers in our own territory, and an early exit to the bars by the third quarter.

If our offense shows a pulse and can score 20-24 points we should be good vs Barn and Arky. This defense is stout. Should get to Bama at 5-1 here in Neyland. How much the offense progresses will dictate whether or not we have a shot to beat the Gumps IMO. Knowles and staff have been amazing. Super impressed
