    UT looks solid. UVA doesn't have a great O but their D is experienced. UT's offense under Hyb works and will score points on just about anyone. If we can't move the ball and score, they will eat us alive.

    Tennessee is fun to watch and will win 8-9 this year. Heupel was a great hire. They are very good and we will have trouble blocking them with our two offensive line coaches. That being said, I still expect a win, especially in the swamp as I have said before and will say again this is a must win cannot start the season one and two.

    I like your optimism and I predicted a win vs Utah. But I just don't see anything about our O that gives me any confidence we will beat UT or that it will even be close. I hate that for I'm all O and B. I truly like BN, but he is simply not an OC nor imo will this style of O win many games.
    I am also concerned about his judgement, 2 OL coaches that produce what we've seen, no ST coach and still ST blunders that a highly paid coach in his second year should not allow. BN has been basically given an open checkbook and we're still seeing bad coaching. O will be rooting for us to win but nothing I've seen tells me we will.

    Funny, Colorado, first year coach who took over a really bad team is upsetting a ranked team at an away game. And its there first game of the year.
    UT 42 still in the third quarter.

    Hey look TN has a special teams coach and he’s celebrating with the players on a nice punt return.

    interesting.

    Could not agree more. I watch Coach Prime pull the biggest upset of the year in game 1 and in game 14 for Billy we are going backwards.

    It would be like UF playing GT In Jacksonville…it’s not really an away game. Just an alternate home game :)

    If I remember correctly, you said something similar regarding Coach Willie vs Mullen after the Kentucky game, right? How’d that play out?

    As for Deion being so impressive after knocking off a ranked team in his first game, didn’t CBN knock off a top 10 team in his first game?

    Let’s not get so hyperbolic after one game.
