Be Realistic, How Many Wins This Season?

[DrDave]

How many games do you REALISTICALLY think we win this year?

 

[Biopsyman]

6... maybe 7

 

[vols 30]

6 wins. It's hard to imagine more than that with average QB's

 

[jackaro]

6 wins, I don't think you can expect more with all the youth and replacing both lines.

 

[KBVol]

5. That being said, the reports from the last 3 practices about the poor QB play make me want to say 3-4. Brand new OL and DL, freshmen running around all over the place....we MUST have good, solid, mistake-free and game-winning QB play.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

while im hoping for 6-7 wins this season, I believe that 5 wins is a reasonable expectation I know thats not what most on here want to hear but to put it mildly our QB play is going to flat out suck this season unless someone steps up soon.

 

[DownTheField]

Finally- a thread asking this question!

 

[rickyb712]

we will win all the game that we score more points. but i will predict 8 with bowl

 

[gnm53108]

3-1 ooc.

4-4 sec.

Wouldn't suprise me to see us get one more somewhere. Add in the bowl....so my window would be 7-9.

 

[Other_Guy]

7 wins is very possible however either the OL or QB has to play at a high level for the entire offense to have any success. If both struggle it will be difficult even getting that 6th win.

 

[DL916]

Low: 6

High: 8

Expecting: 7

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

If we have solid play and few injuries at QB/OT, 6 or 7

If we struggle or have injuries at those spots, 5

 

[TBtheGBwiththeTD]

6. QB's still searching for consistency, Lines are a big ? and there is youth everywhere.

Fortunately we have a lot of talent so we can certainly cause problems for people.

 

[BigBadVol]

I'm putting the over/under on how many of these threads at 20. I'm taking the over.

 

[Vol4life25]

I think 7

Anything less then six will be a huge disappointment.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

8 with bowl is perfectly reasonable. Every other team is having their issues as well. tennessee isn't the only team with issues, and I have faith in Worley.

 

[crparker21]

3-1 ooc.

4-4 sec.

Wouldn't suprise me to see us get one more somewhere. Add in the bowl....so my window would be 7-9.

So what 4 sec schools are you confident about? I get vandy and Kentucky. I feel we could steal 1 more but not confident in any of the other sec games.

 

[crparker21]

Would like to get 6, but range is probably 5 to 7 wins.

 

[gunner]

3-1 ooc.

4-4 sec.

Wouldn't suprise me to see us get one more somewhere. Add in the bowl....so my window would be 7-9.

Very optimistic, considering the inexperience and average QBs that UT has on the roster, not to mention the difficult schedule they play.

I would say 5-7 is a good window with 8 being the best the team could do.

 

[Tennman]

6 if we can upset someone. hopefully 7 with a bowl win.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Low: 6

High: 8

Expecting: 7

This

 

[BehindEnemyLines]

14

 

[Brave Volunteer]

6 if we're lucky. 7 or more if we're destined.

 

[orangeluvr]

Six wins won't ''get it" following this season. :no:

 

[gnm53108]

Yeh vandy and kent for sure. The only sec opp I would call a long shot, altho I aint ever gonna thro in the towell, is bama.

sc we beat last year so thats possible. ga is kinda in the same boat. fl with any qb play we should have so I aint marking them off. ole miss is supposed to be better but I gotta see it. mizzo is expected to come back to earth. IMO it's not out of the question to take two of those.
