That's the bad thing I see this year. Even in the past we would be in games, and fight for 3 quarters before we shutdown. Games are over at halftime. We just aren't even in the games to have a chance. Give me a 14-10 game going into the 4th and I'm happy with progess. But this is frustrating.

What the hell are you talking about? Longing for the days of a Dooley coached team?

Except for Oregon, everything you just said is false.

WKU and South Alabama have kept the games very competitive. What are you talking about?

Nobody stays in the games with Oregon. We fought to the end against Florida. What other games have we lost?

Don't make excuses. That Oregon game should have been 14-10 heading into the fourth quarter. :)

Seriously though, hopefully all the pronosticators picking us to keep this one close are accurate.

We've had exactly one game this year where we were getting waxed at the half.

GA, you're a closet Georgia fan, give me your thoughts on today: what do you expect from UGA and how can Tennessee keep it close?

1) Freak .... bite me!

2) UGA will give up plays over the top and their d-line is improving, but still a work in progress. They'll give up yards. Also saw North Texas run back a kickoff and block a punt against them.

We can keep it close, but we'll need a special teams play and a turnover or two to slow them down.

If tn loses by 11 that will be keeping it close n GA covers the spread which I picked them to do.. worley is worth 10 to 14 pts via turnovers n that will the different in the game.

On the Fla game in the second half they figured out to run it wide n we never adjusted so we were never in that game because of the off playing n refusing to change formations n give them a new look.. if u noticed Fla gave us several different looks once they got on our side of the field in the second half n tn never adjusted.. so no we were never a threat

It's threads like these that drives this board nuts....why would a Ga fan troll for 3 yrs....I would hate to think a Vol fan is this stupid or this uninformed. Waiting for his explanation of the Wyoming loss last week.

We had the ball in the 4th qtr against Florida down by 14. That doesn't constitute "not having a chance".

If he doesn't show back up in the next few minutes to expound, this bit o' wisdom is going away.

Couldn't agree more. Butch needs to own this!!!!!

Wait. It's still 4 hours to kickoff. What's going on, now?

I'm too sober for these dire threads to start already. Save it for the post game meltdown thread-a-lanche.

This may be the most off base comment I've read on here. Despite poor qb play we were still in the Florida game until the end. Oregon hasn't played a close game all year. Don't be so negative.
