Didn't say it would be right. I simply don't trust the media.

For one, there is SEC fatigue with a lot of them. Then there is the fact that A LOT of them really don't like UT fans. As in really dislike us. They were "offended" by the Ole Miss game. They are offended that we believe we deserve a winner as much as Ohio State, USC, Clemson, or Bama. This is a pretty cool database someone shared recently. Look back through the history of some of these voters. They are DYING to vote UT out of the top 10.

Kentucky is going to be a tough tough physical game. They are out for revenge from last season too.

With that being said, I like our chances at Georgia.

It will be physical for WL. UK ranks 125 in sacks allowed. Their OL has given up 26 sacks. Our D scheme will be similar to what we did at LSU with a similar outcome.

We shouldn’t concede a loss to Georgia.

Agreed. UGA has played Oregon who since has risen in the rankings in spite of playing an extraordinarily weak schedule. UGA has then played Samford, Kent State, and the 4 worst teams in the SEC- Mizzou, Vandy, USCe, and Auburn.

We KNOW they are talented. But we really don't know yet how good of a team they are. They haven't played anyone who truly challenged them to show how good they are. The last two games establish that UT is a pretty good team.

Who has UK played and beaten that impresses you so much? They've played a very weak schedule and have managed to lose two games. Their OL isn't good. Their DL is mediocre... one deep. Stoops tries to slow the game down to protect his lack of depth.

His DBs are less talented than Bama. In fact, their whole team except for Rodriguez is significantly less talented than the team UT just beat. Hyatt just embarrassed a secondary that is faster than UK's. When they played deep coverage, Keyton, McCoy, and the TE's found all kinds of room to work and the run game doubled Bama's previous yds/gm and ypa. And then... UT gets Tillman back.

No doubt UT could make a bunch of mistakes and hand the game to UK. But if UT plays a good game... it will very likely get out of hand early.

Fall out of the top 10
By losing to the #1 team in the nation? Likely wouldn’t fall out of the top 5 too many one lose teams and we would have the best loss

We shouldn't; but it seems a lot of ignorance in ranking these teams. Most people don't seem to understand when you beat a ranked team they fall in the rankings, and much has been said of the ranked teams we played and won when they were ranked, and some have dropped out of ranking. A loss effects a team. Sometimes it is a positive effect and sometimes it makes a team better. LSU has played much better after their loss to us. When a number one team beats a number 3 team in a close game on the number ones home field, the number 3 should not fall any, regardless of who it is. If their rankings are correct to start with the number one is supposed to win.

I think that comes down to what kind of RB impresses you. Gibbs has great vision and feet. He's physical enough but needs blockers to create creases. Rodriguez is playing behind a terrible OL. He is his own best blocker... and sometimes his only blocker.

No doubt he is good, I just think Gibbs is better, just my opinion. We will see just how good Rod is in two weeks.

Gibbs didn’t need blockers. Gibbs is the best RB in the nation, Rodriguez isn’t even from the same universe.

I agree we have to take it one week at a time. But Georgia is about to be in for the fight of its life in a few weeks. I'm with Brent Hubbs he liked Tennessee's chances with Georgia over Alabama now that we got through Alabama I'm excited about this Georgia game. Pressure is on Georgia Vols should play loose air it out and bring the heat on defense!

It's a good thing Hype has our boys believing and focusing on each game as they come. IF we lose to UGA, OSU, Clemson-- ole piss, UCLA, and or TCU ,would be in as undefeateds.
The good of our schedule this year is how many top 25s we are playing, the bad, after UGA, the rest of the schedule is garbage and everyone else gets their challenging games. Gotta get to the SECCG or bust!!!!!
