An Early Look At 5 Potential SEC Upsets

I'm confident the Vols beat UF this year. That game alone will make the whole season for me. Hopefully it's a night game.

South Carolina will continue their streak against Clemson. Clemson has lost a lot and wont be the team they were in 2013(They will still go to a pretty decent bowl).

I'm not quite sure why either Carolina game would be considered an "upset". Clemson, TA&M, and Carolina all seem pretty evenly matched to me. All 3 teams lost their starting QB's, so no advantage there. I wouldn't know who to bet on in any of these games (maybe USC over Clemson due to the current streak).

Oh don't worry. I'm sure whatever scrub QB they put in will play the game of his life, than never be heard from again.

As bad as FL was last year, there is no reason us beating them should be an upset -- except fo the psychological factor. Spurrier gave the Vols the Gator "yips". We have had more talented teams lose to them several times. To beat them Butch needs to be more of a psychologist than a coach.

I agree with you, but the psychological factor has been good enough for the last 9 years and I suspect it'll still be enough this year. Plus, their season fell apart last year due to an incredible rash of injuries. They'll be a much more talented team than UT again this year and will more than likely run their streak over UT to double digits.

You have forgotten the power of being a Vol.
We've just begun the long slow climb back up.
You need to remember why we will get there.

The Dooley blown lead is one of the all time bone head moves I've ever seen.

Yes, it was bad but there were others. 1995 was a colossal meltown.

Letting them drive all the way down the field in 2000 was pretty bad as well. UT did everything right that day except score TD's.

Don't know if that writer just thinks South Carolina has peaked or what but dang he picked them for two possible upsets on a list of only 5.

I don't see them losing to Clemson though. Maybe at Kyle Field since it's about a billion miles away from Columbia and a tough environment. A&M has talent but they're gonna miss Johnny and Evans, particularly early in the year.
