Go Vols.

 

[VAWL FAN]

We don't deserve it our strength of schedule is too weak.

This is why I increasingly avoid this site;our own fans disparage our team and it's accomplishments more than our rivals.

 

[Voltopia]

Oh good grief, it's gonna be 2022 all over again. Kirby will be running his mouth all weak with his "NOBODY RESPECTS US" and "EVERYBODY THINKS YOU'LL LOSE" crap at practice, just like he did in 2022 when Tennessee was ranked (suddenly) #1 and UGA was #3. "THEY SAY TENNESSEE'S BETTER THAN YOU." Nonstop, over the loudspeakers, all week. It's his go-to move for motivating his players. I swear, someone could leave a packet of ketchup on the bleachers and he'd point at it and yell "SEE THEY DON'T RESPECT YOU." On and on and on.

I remember the video someone recorded of UGA on their practice field before the UT game that year. It was shot from across the street and the practice was behind the fences, so all you could hear was his voice. A non-stop expletive-filled tirade about how UGA was gonna prove everyone wrong and they were gonna show people how wrong they were. Ugh. Really wanted to go in and sneak up on them this year.

Sorry, It was sarcasm brought over from another thread.

We may very well be, and I hope we are - I just hate that dude having more ammunition for his patented "THEY DON'T RESPECT US" motivational speech, which I swear is his go-to move for big games.

You gotta be able to take a teams best shot and still come out on top if you want to win championships. I dont care what Kirby pulls, we gotta be able to handle business. Alabama and Georgia year in and year out are other teams super bowls. If we want to be at the top consistently, we better get used to it.

Okay, yeah, I don't debate having to beat the best to be the best, but I would prefer UGA to be as unmotivated as possible. I don't think that's a wild concept or anything. Would have been nice for Tennessee to sneak up on someone and shank them for a change.

 

[EconVol92]

Let’s be honest here. Can we beat Georgia? Yes we can, but it won’t be easy.

I think that if I had to bet straight up I would say Georgia, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we did win.

The same with Ole Miss. I’m not surprised they won, but I would have bet on Georgia.

It will need to be the running game and Sampson and Nico will need to lead the way.

Our offense is not as good as 22, but our Defense is light years ahead.

 

[yabadabadolnavy]

Georgia is a must win. Playoff poll will have us behind Georgia, bama, and ole miss if we lose and obviously Texas

A must win for both teams. UGA's fans and team will be at 100% emotional investment for this one. It could be another note in the UGA history books, or a new page for Tennessee's story under Josh Heupel. Here's hoping for the latter.

Nico’s coming out party for the national media I’m hoping. Go vols. No holding back in this one. Sling it and ride Sampson

 

[fossilfiction]

Unfortunately it means nothing unless we win the SEC. But I am shocked we have struggled on offense like we have at times and the team finds ways to keep winning.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

Except this year we are better

And Georgia is worse.

 

[Behr]

You don’t get sarcasm do you

He/she ain't the only one. Lulz.

Edit: to be fair I brought that over from another thread and, that kind of thing is so common anymore it's hard to keep up with who's being sarcastic and who's serious.

I understand what you are saying and I want to win as bad as anyone but I think the days of being overlooked and sneaking up on teams are over with. That's for middle of the pack teams which we no longer are under Heupel. Now it's time to take the next step which is win big games, in big time environments, against the best of the best. Taking their best shot and surviving.

 

[UTFranklinVol]

The AP isn't buying it. #6

 

[VOLINVONORE]

If our defense cleans up a couple of weird events, allowing runners to run wide open right up the middle, and the occasional lapse of a rush end not protecting the outside, we will win the game.
