UCLA,Florida,Auburn,Georgia,Bama?

To make or break the season, I'll choose the Auburn game. The likelihood of the Vols being undefeated at that point is at best 50%. We lose the Auburn game, look out, rough season ahead.

UF...not even close with any other team. We beat UF we are in the drivers seat.

I think its Florida, that game seems to make or break us. Florida has a bye week before they play us, I believe. I dont know how much of an impact, if any that will have on the game.

I dont think it will have as much of an impact this year because we will be running a new offense, and that could prove difficult for them to scheme against. However it will give them time to rest up/recover after thier game with Miami.

Florida... winning that game gives us a mental edge... it seems like sometimes we put them up on a pedostal and its a huge confidence builder if we win.... i wish i could give the FLA pregame speech lol... and make sure the guys remember that the FLA players are college students just like us... no more no less

Well, the thing about the UF game this year is that they don't start their first two games off against cupcakes. They will beat Hawaii and Miami, but I don't think they will sleep through them the way they could Troy and Western Kentucky. Hopefully we will be better able to prepare for them if they have to show off more of their offensive strategies.

It's still, like every year, the biggest game for us. Win against Florida and we are firmly entrenched in the SEC Championship race instead of playing catch up like last year.

Florida only because its the first SEC game of the season...We win that one and the rest of the SEC has fear in thier heart for the big orange

I'm gonna be silly and say every SEC game is pivotal in the quest for a conference title.

Florida.

Hands Down.

If we win the Georgia game will be 100X's bigger. If we lose to Florida, the UGA game loses it's luster in the big picture. If we lose to Florida and beat Georgia, Bammer could very well come into Knoxville with one loss and make that game a make/break. But.... it all hinges and starts with the Gators coming to Neyland.

I don't know that the UF game is the pivotal game next year, but it does happen to be the game I want to win most (followed by Bama, followed by UGA). I mean, let's face it every game this day and age is pivotal because you have to go undefeated, or survive with one loss and pray to make it to the championship game.
