-LSU offense scared me more than Tennessee. All the pressure is on the vols this weekend.

-I don’t think they’re gonna light us up on offense… but unless Beck has some tricks up his sleeve he’s been saving, I just don’t see how we’re gonna score enough to win. I think the outcome might be kinda similar to last night against LSU, but it’s gonna be 200 yards rushing for UT instead of 300 yards passing.

-The more I think about it, the more I wonder if they will actually start Nate on Saturday. We’ve seen it all year, the offense does not have the juice when Pavia isn’t a running threat. I think if you really look in the mirror honestly, we may not have enough to beat Tennessee unless something changes (scheme, new plays, new personnel groupings).

-We can definitely ruin their season, but I don’t think we have enough in the tank.

-Gonna be tough. Pavia will have to be at his best and our D-line will have to control their O-line. When they go up-tempo they usually run the ball.

-Hey look, if we don’t beat them, they’ll most likely go on the road to Penn State for a playoff game. They couldn’t beat Franklin here, so go get em Nittany Lions.

-Pavia has to play out of his mind like he did against Alabama if we want a chance.

-It’s going to be extremely tough to stop Sampson on the ground. If we can’t at least limit him, gonna be a long afternoon.

-We’re 12 point dogs. I think we can at least scare them a bit and pull off a late win.

-You really can’t deny that Tennessee just gets stronger by the year under Heupel but I hope we beat them because there wouldn’t be a sweeter thing in the world than watching them limp off the field knowing that we broke them.

-Can we win? Yes we can! Will we win? Pretty much up to Pavia.

-I was hoping that Lea has been game planning for Tennessee for weeks. This win would solidify his career here for sure.

Saying the win is up to Pavia lol. No, it’s up to UT and if they show up. If UT shows up, this will be an annihilation.

It’s better when fans of crappy teams are cocky…our games seem to have a better results like Oklahoma and NC State.

I was at that Georgia State game. Pavia looks lost to me when he isn’t playing a run-first style. His arm isn’t that sharp, and I honestly think he can’t see over the line. If we keep him in the pocket, he’s not that capable. He could be like that Army QB, but I doubt Vandy would ever adopt that style of offense.

Anyhow, those message board posts are all pretty level headed except that one guy talking about Franklin at Penn State… which is the funniest pathetic statement I’ve heard in a hot minute.

I think a very high percentage of Vandy fans are alums. Not the case for TN.
In middle Tennessee, lots of dudes who didn’t go to school there are Vandy fans because (1) it’s nearby and convenient to go watch them play, and/or (2) somebody they knew went there or maybe even played sports there, and/or (3) they are justifiably annoyed with the local townie Tennessee fans, and/or (4) they’re primarily into baseball or basketball and the Vols were pretty bad at those sports for a long while.

One of the worst "What the other team is saying" to have to read. Not the posters fault...but the fact that there is no one on their board.

Stands...in a good year for them...will still be at least 70% Vols fans.

At least Canderbilt is bowl eligible this season.

Good thing about this game vs Vandy is they aren't sneaking up on anyone and Vols are going to be ultra inspired to leave it all on the field for a playoff birth. Doesn't mean we win, necessarily, but if we lose, it would be because they beat us, like they just flat out beat Bama...but I don't see it happening. I could see it relatively close early 3rd and Sampson takes over. Our D will come ready to play.

The fact that they’re not bad this year really does help us in this situation. Strangely enough. Sports is weird.

Wouldn't it be refreshing if we could score in the first qtr? Playing calling suspect!
