There is no way SC is the number 3 team in the country.

They are better at 3 than Oklahoma at 1 IMO :birgits_giggle:

Oklahoma is the best example of a 1 trick pony...their RB petersen....without him their a 7-4 team anywhere you go. Bomar is some hyped up spectacle of Nebraskas' Frost...I don't see it.

I don't disagree. As I've stated before, OU is a year away.

Cal is 8th.Good.Exactly what the doctor ordered.

Cal is wildly overrated.

True, opening with a wildly overhyped opponent does present opportunities.

auburn might be better than 8th.. but wow, OU?
no wayyyy

Yeah, it's been so long since the Sooners were a contender.

In all my years of following the Vols, the Cal game is probably the biggest game UT will have played since, well, since Majors had the rug pulled out from underneath him.

 

[D MAN 335]

there have been huge games, soully because it's the SEC.. but this is huge

**turn around, hand it off... catch your jaw before it hits the floor**

I think a game for the National Championship is pretty important.

 

[GAVol]

I think it's about as big as . . . the opener last year against UAB.

cuz UAB was top 10 right?

i'm off to bed but i'll talk to everyone tomorrow
have a good one

 

[sickemsmokey10]

I think the Cal game for us is huge. After what happened last year, we really need to start the season of a good step and beat a top 10 team.

By the way, Athlon has Tennessee at 20 :dunno:

I don't know, it didn't seem to help UAB last year.

 

[volfan2024]

N/C was big.UAB,our season prior to that game was alot better than this past season GAVOL!You don't see the Cal game as a huge statement game?After all the crap thats been said about Coach Fulmer this year?

We'll get a shot at a real top 10 team on September 16. Cal is a complete and utter fraud.

 

[checkerboard_charly]

lol. cal wont be 8 very long.

i say that it is ohio state's year.

I tend to agree, but when we play them, they will be a top 10 team, so atleast it would look better for us then if we win

It's a big game, but I don't see how it is in any way some sort of make or break game.
