    Hope CC can get back but I doubt it. This game on the road is going to be really tough. Don’t see us winning it but pray I’m wrong. Go Gators!

    On the positive side, Ole Miss has a game today too, so they also have a short turnaround. Plus, their game is at Mississippi State, their most hated rival, so Ole Miss might be expending more emotional capital in that game and come out a little flat against the Gators.

    The offense has to improve if they plan on dancing in March. There's just no way they can win enough games against our remaining schedule shooting 38% from the field and 25% from 3 (36 attempts :eek::eek::eek:)

    Not trying to jinx us, but Ole Miss is pretty bad. Not Georgia bad, but close.

    Now then going against the toothless Vols on Wednesday will be really tough.

    True - this is an opportunity to get back to where we're supposed to be in the SEC. Win this one and we're on pace. Hard to imagine getting a win in Knox, so this is really an important game.

    Today’s game I predicted a low scoring game.
    I knew our only chance, to play tough defense by everybody, because you are not going to see us shooting the percentages we shot against Miss State every night. Now, I didn’t think Vandy was this bad/flat and I didn’t think Pippen would only get five, unbelievable! I guess we need to bring the defense and play the roster every night. This is the mindset CMW I am sure is drilling in their heads. A blowout was not in my mind, I have gone to the Vandy games in Nashville the last two years and we have struggled with them every time. Nice to see JJ and Gatkek hold down the middle, it is definitely going to be choppy water ahead! LOL
    Goooooooooo Gators, keep the faith! With Colin out, every player is getting minutes, this will help the team this year and next. Hopefully CC can play again this year!

    Quick turnaround for Ole Miss is tough, but then coming back on Wednesday night will be brutal.

    with our loss to Texas Southern this year we can lose to anyone so I don’t look at any game as a gimme, regardless of who we are playing. I am definitely taking one game at a time. Lol

    My wife and I where at the Gator game at Vandy in 2020. We had tickets from Southwest where they bumped us and had to use them flew from Jax to Nashville for the weekend.

    Scored baseline tickets about eight rows from the floor.

    Pippen Jr was very skilled at fooling refs at that young age.

    Hot chicken and taking the RCA studio tour were my highlights other than the Gator game. The tour guide asked who everyone wanted to hear about that recorded there. Lots of Elvis and Dolly Parton fans, but I knew who that studio was built for: Chet Atkins. Damn good guitar picker.

    I was there. I have toured RCA, there is a new Hattie B’s restaurant, hot Nashville chicken, where people line up everyday, on SW Eighth. You can take SW eighth and go down to Broadway, the honkytonks, the Bridgestone arena, the Ryman auditorium, Ascend Amphi-theatre on the river,
    The Nissan Football Stadium, etc., about 2 1/2 miles, Vanderbilt, Belmont Universities about 1 to 2 miles away. Great town for entertainment.

    I think that we went to that Hattie B's.

    One time through Nashville we tried to go to the original place, but they were closed.

    Brand new 2 story Publix right across the street from Hattie B’s, my daughter lived in a condo 1/2 block from Hattie’s B’s, we now lease. SW 8 & 12th Ave. sprung up in the last fifteen years as young urban professionals started buying in and renovating everything in sight. Restaurants followed on both streets. Very close to Belmont and Music Row! The prices have kept climbing since we have been traveling there and moved to the Nashville area four years ago! Nashville, Austin and Denver are getting hit due to the virus and everyone working remote. Techies from all over the US are finding more reasonable real estate and amenities, entertainment. If you bought in Nashville in the early part of the decade, you are gaining from an explosive real estate boom. Think we will ride it out! LOL
