Solid Matchup!

I think Tech is too physical for them.

I think both offenses will run over the defense to be honest. You could give this team a year to prepare for GT and I still don't think we'll be successful stopping them consistently. But on the other hand we've been a dominant run team all year, so I expect us to return the favor.

I hope they're not expecting a sellout.

bad choice since GT top running back left the team already

What's the over/under on combined rushing yds? 700?

Won't be too many there for that one and what is there will be mostly blue.

Still will outnumber Jags attendance by a healthy margin

I still don't get how the Jags are still there. I'm guessing if the NFL had their way, they'd be shipped to London.

It's not the fault of the people. When the Jags won, attendance was strong.

It has been one of the worst franchises in all of sports and it's not an accident why fans don't pay for this crap anymore.

And to make things worse, not only have they been bad, they've been boring.

So, it's the running joke among a lot of people for a long time, but they haven't had a winning record since 2007. They've lost 10 or more games for 7 of the last 9 years.

When they win and no one shows up, then everyone will have a point.

But, don't blame the city

Forgot to add this tidbit....since 10/15, they have as many wins in Jacksonville as they do in London.

 

[TennFan]

Won't fill half the stadium.🤔😧😳

Oh I don't blame the fans. I just thought it was an odd spot to put a team in the first place.

But yes, it seems like since the mid 2000s or so, that the ownership has been trying to be bad so they could have an excuse to leave. Even making the uniforms terrible on purpose; that helmet is one of the worst things I've ever seen. Arena football teams have been helmets.

Since I live in Jax, the game 2 years ago was my favorite of all bowl games. We do it right here in Jax! I'd love to see my Vols here again, but I'm sure it won't be this year. Go Vols!
