Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Still too young to pull this one out on the road.
Florida is better on the lines and that's what wins ballgames.
I don't like having to depend on the pass to get it done. Three things can happen when you pass and 2 of them are bad. That puts the odds against you when that's all you have. Plus it's so much harder due to the timing etc to be consistant.
I hope we win, but I think Florida beats us by 10-14 points.

That sounds reasonable, but it wouldn't shock me if Tennessee pulled this one out. In a year or so, we might be talking about Tyler Bray in the same way we're talking about Andrew Luck now-- as the probable #1 pick in the NFL draft. That kid's awfully impressive, and when you've got a QB with that kind of talent, you've got a chance.

TNV,
There's a 128x128 pixel limit on the avatar. So if you're having problems, that's probably why. Search for the image on Google with the 128x128 pixel size as a filter.

10ac, nice ride.

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Agree w/Jason.
I think Tenn wins. The Saban System (tm) cannot be denied.

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
I'm always surprised when I see a fellow Vol predict a loss for us. I'm never going to predict a Tennessee loss. I always expect a win. Bray will be alright if the OL can handle the stunts and blitz packages the Gator DL will surely try to throw at them. His receivers have an advantage over UF's DBs and his quick release will give us a chance.
Our D may give up some plays early, but I hope they can settle down like they did vs. Cincy and be disciplined enough to give Brantley some problems. I don't think they'll be able to line up and run the ball down our throats, so they'll need to be able to mix up their looks and pass effectively to back us up off the line.
I like our chances. I think Dooley has the team in the right frame of mind to handle the pressure of the smamp. I'm really impressed with his demeanor and how the team seems to be gradually taking on his personality. I also think that Devrin Young will play and help us. The way Dooley has brought him along has been picture-perfect. I think he will play and perform well. It would be great to get some short fields or maybe even see one returned for a TD.

Supposedly they showed this on the jumbotron during last week's game and the Neyland crowd went nuts...

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Hack, I WANT to win, but I'm a realist too and I see how bad our lines are and that concerns me greatly.
I also see shades of 3rd and Chavis with Wilcox using lots of DB's and rushing less linemen. That concerns me too, but that could be pavlovian due to the failure that is the crapstain that we saw so much.
I just think that Florida has more talent and more experience, especially where it counts on the lines.
I believe Tennessee CAN win, but I don't think they will win.
I did notice that the more things change the more they stay the same, a stud lineman that was suspended gets to come back to play against Tennessee once again LOL.

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Defense sucks, Wilcox is Chavis lite trying to play with DB's running around everywhere with no pressure on the QB giving the receivers time to find a hole in the soft coverage.
We didn't even get close to Brantly that whole series.
You can bet they will sack Bray on our first possession and they will play tight coverage so that they aren't open by 10 yards like the Florida receivers are.

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Holy crap that's JFA. They don't need any help.
They waited until the play was over and the players were going back to the huddle and called the PI the Florida receiver asked for and when they replayed it there was clearly no foul.

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Actually, his body made contact before the ball got there. I know BOJ.. It lives on, WWAVC. And I don't agree that the flags should come so late. But it wasn't as clear as you make it. And our two commentators are paid to make it dramatic.

Re: Tennessee Volunteers
Yeah, that's why Vern Gator Lundquist actually commented on how clean a play it was and how late the flag was.
It actually probably helped us by getting the turds closer to the goal line where and they didn't spread it out so much and we were able to hold it to a FG.
That flag was late, late late. So late it gave the appearance of allowing the gator player be the one to call the penalty.
That was fire an official bad but of course unlike the rest of the world officials have absolutely no accountability.
