take it all day long



you realize you will not see the $$ unless y'all have some reliable third party hold it or something


Seriously, you need to get that straightened out before the season starts if you want to collect. If not, you will not see a dime!

If he's that big of a big mouth....tell him to quit betting chump change. I would mess with a season long bet for less than 5 LARGE. Go win yourself a used Toyota.

I know the mod....by chance he is a UT fan as well.
not much of a chance of that because he is a good guy.

The other guy is never going to pay but I outed him for trying to be internet macho man so...

Out here in Vegas land, the over/under is expected to be 8, so if you ever get nervous, you can cover your bet out here, and you'd win the bet if UT won 6 or 7 or 8 games, but no more. :rock:

I know Steele has us 40th (equates to a prediction of 8 wins); Athlon has us 34th (equates to a prediction of 8 wins); CFN looks like they will predict 8 wins. So lots of folks outside Vol-land see 8+ wins for UT.

We also face a home-friendly schedule with clearly more talent than Ohio, WKY, Vandy, Kentucky & Memphis. Add in another 3 games against teams no more talented than us, all at home -- UCLA, Auburn, South Carolina. We should go 7-1 against that schedule. So, even if we only pull off 1 upset against the remaining 4 and go 2-1 against the even-talent teams at home, that gives us 8 wins.

Safe bet, pure and simple.

While my gut says "take it all day long," my head reminds me that we have only a QB that was terrible last year, an unproven/underclassed (by UT standards) receiving corps, mediocre lines on both sides of the ball, and special teams that are anything but. We have been blown out by Florida and Alabama and squandered our only chance at an SEC title in years. We were beaten last year by Wyoming...at home...and nearly also by Northern Illinois...also at home.

We now rest our hopes in a stellar defensive secondary, two outstanding freshmen recruits, and a new coach with no experience in his current position (although I do really like the guy).

Is it really unrealistic to think we might do the unthinkable and repeat the 2005 performance? I don't think so.

A better bet would be that we will win more than 6...two years from now.

Go figure a Gator would come in with his two cents.

If you feel so confident about it I will gladly make a bet with you on it.

5.5 wins so that there is no tie.

Over and you never post here again. Under and I will never post here again.

How bout it?
