ESPN still sees no bowl for TN

[crusse10]

Saddest part is that Western Kentucky will probably make a bowl. I do think we make one this year. Probably Music City bowl again.

nothing sad about that...if we play in any conference other than the SEC, we are bowl-bound.

Why should they see a bowl for us? We haven't beaten anybody.You got to earn, earn, earn, the privilege of going bowling, friend.

We have to win all 3 to be bowl eligible.

Just 2 of them. We need to be 6-6 to be bowl eligible. Assuming Kentucky and S. Alabama are wins of course. eace2:

While we certainly do not "know" in the concrete sense... Vandy and Mizzou for sure should be wins. UT has more talent than both. Jones is showing signs of being a very good in-game and game week coach.

Auburn has not played well but in spite of his problems Chizik recruited well. He left Malzahn with a pretty good roster to work with.

You can add USCe to that list. Granted UGA is a great offensive team but they exposed the weaknesses of the USC D. The Gamecocks are thin and have issues in the back 7. UGA's D replaced 9 starters and half their 2 deep from last year and still got stops at key times. USCe is definitely beatable.

UF is down 2 or 3 of their starting OL's from the beginning of the season. There are opportunities there.

IMO UGA has too much O. UT has to improve significantly on that side of the ball to have any kind of real shot.

Honestly, I think Oregon could be UT's absolute toughest game this year. That is including AlaBubba.eace2:
