We MUST beat Florida. That is probably my biggest beef with Butch. That game has enormous importance for us...and as a side note...me personally. We were up 27-14 and I was moments away from texting my brother in law the biggest "hahhahhahhahhah...EAT IT" text of my life. I still can't believe we lost that game. I was so completely ticked off...probably as mad as I've ever been about a sports outcome. I HATED Butch for that. I blamed him. Part of me still does.

Please for the love of all that is good and decent.....we MUST beat them this time. A total dominating beatdown is preferred....but I will accept a simple W.

Thanks in advance.

It's bigger than Florida. But very important, it's not so much Florida, it's the streak that is looming so large. We are on the verge of 12 in a row, unacceptable. The big picture is Tampa, beating Florida is a minor detail. I'm looking foward to LSU and Clemson, those would be great games and a true test.

"Ummm.....duhhhh.....is sak duh mose diswupdiv tang u cun du on duh fiz?" Guy sounds so lame and ignorant with that weak :shaking2: question...honestly in that deep bass Karl Childers Sling Blade voice. Coach was respectful unlike me by stating the obvious answer :rofl: I'm just saying.

Just rewatched the Oklahoma game and man at the missed tackles. How many times did they have Mayfield down in the backfield and him escape for positive yardage? I hope that is going to be one of the biggest improvements we see this year. Also, curious to see how much Kirkland Jr improves in year 2. That kid is going to be a beast.

The entire 1 half of the season they had alot of missed tkl's. The year before I thought they did pretty good but last year started off pretty rough. IMO they seemed to clean it up a bit after the bye.

I think with DKjr playing that well as a TF in the back half of the year shows he progresses extremely fast so I'm excited to see how far he has came in his 2nd year. Talent like he has mixed with a photographic memory and quick on the learning curve, the sky is the limit IMO.

If Shoop can improve the Vol defense markedly, the sky may be the limit for team 120 (barring injury).
Playing dominating defense, team 119 may have possibly gone undefeated last year

Cheers to Bob Shoop and the new wrecking crew defense
Go Vols
