Alright, so it is the general consensus that the four games that make or break our season this year are Missouri, Auburn, Vanderbilt, and Kentucky. I believe that the schedule is laid out very favorably for us in each of these games. These are the games each team has leading up to us.
Missouri - @Indiana, Ark. St., @Vandy, @GEORGIA, FLORIDA, SOUTH CAROLINA
Auburn - Ole Miss, Western Carolina, @Texas A&M, Florida Atlantic, @Arkansas
Vandy - Georgia, @Texas A&M, OPEN, Florida, Kentucky
Kentucky - @Mississippi St., Alabama St., Missouri, @Vandy, at @Georgia
Now for the flip side. Tennessee's games leading up to each open.
Missouri - OPEN, South Carolina, @Alabama
Auburn - see above plus Missouri
Vandy - Bye
Kentucky - Bye, Vandy
Auburn and Vandy are at home. Missouri and Kentucky are away. I believe this is perfect as Auburn and Vandy will likely be the toughest teams out of the four. We have at the very least two less games in a row leading up to each of these opponents. One last game of note. We have a bye before South Carolina comes to Neyland. They play @UCF, Kentucky, and @Arkansas. In my opinion. The schedule is favorable for a 7 or 8 win season. We wont know until the games are played but I feel good about our chances.
