Mizzou opens as 13 point favorites

We enjoyed the hell out of both of those!!

And we didn't really even notice that it was that lob-sided... Because we never worry about you. But don't you worry, cuz this year you are on our radar and its going to hurt.

got rid of Dooley, best thing that could have happened.

A little surprised on that one

They are at home plus we may be starting a True Freshmen at QB. It looks about right to me.

 

[UT_Tix79]

Their receivers are all 6'4 or taller, and big. That always worries me with our depleted and undermanned DB's. I am very interested to see how our line deals with their DL, because they have beat every line for multiple sacks. But, we should be able to atleast get a draw in that regard.

If they can't get any pressure, their DB's are much worse than ours and we can have a field day

No they don't. They have 4 WR's over 6'2".... as does UT.

Depleted? Same guys playing now as started the season plus Williams and Jones who should be getting into playing shape by now.

I am very interested to see how our line deals with their DL, because they have beat every line for multiple sacks.

No. They haven't. Fifteen of their 25 sacks came against Vandy, Murray St, and Ark St. They did have 6 vs UF however and 2 each on UGA and UF.

But, we should be able to atleast get a draw in that regard.

UT should have a clear edge on both lines.

If they can't get any pressure, their DB's are much worse than ours and we can have a field day

They aren't as talented but they do play well in their system. Whoever plays QB needs to understand where the holes and favorable match ups are going to be.

You think line should be higher or lower?

 

[Sheath Huler]

Why do people care what the lines are? Vegas will take note of UT at the appropriate time (i.e. when they can string together a few meaningful wins).

In the mean time, if you think the line is high, bet on UT -> beat spread -> profit.

Yeah I never pay that much attention to Vegas. Go Vols and go PHISH!!!! Love your Avatar!

Lol! Radio stations? Wtf are you even talking about?

Every sports station in Nashville. Even in their hometown Vandy gets no support from the local media.

Listen hot shot, not sure how much you paid for each one of those ridiculous "targeting" calls but it sure worked. With Georgia already having lost Matthews, Gurley, Marshall, Bennett, Scott-Wesley, and Mitchell prior to the game, they then lost Conley and Harvey-Clemons to injury during the game. Then add to that your first assistant coach dressed as a referee throwing the targeting penalty on Drew which no one outside of Vandy can figure out got our best defensive player tossed from the game. The second targeting got overturned .. but OH let's keep the bogus 15 yard penalty to keep Vandy in the drive and ultimately the game. Your team plays dirtier than about any in the SEC as evidence from two years ago with your punk center trying to take out a knee 3 seconds after the play is over but you always want to run smack after an overly controversial win. Enjoy it Vandy, next year you're going to get the same thing as last year .. AN EPIC SMOKE SESSION!

Vandy has been getting screwed on calls for years. I agree the targeting calls are bad and it's a terrible rule. The calls were consistent with how the refs are calling it this year. Basically U can't play fundamental football anymore.

Go back and rewatch that game. I don't think anyone with vision better than 20/200000 can say that Tyler Bray didn't throw that game. That loss was nothing more than Bray flipping the bird to Dooley as a final farewell. Our offense could have easily hung 50 on Vandy.

I hope you enjoyed your year of the illusion that you were Tennessee's team. Franklin is going right where he belongs this year: the bottom of the food chain.

I guess Worley and the rest of the team were in on it too! Bottom of the food chain is where UT has been the past 3 years. There in strong contention to stay there again this year.

Haven't you learned yet that every form of sports media hates every individual fan's team of preference?
