31-3 Vols on Saturday. I expect Kentucky’s defense to be stingy early, but as the game wears on, Cats run out of gas and Vols put on more steam.

However, if Tennessee comes out hot and puts a couple of early touchdowns on the board, I wouldn’t be shocked if this ended up being a six or seven touchdown win. This Kentucky team has all the signs of a team ready to pack it in if things go bad early.

I expect we go hyper speed on offense and wear down a very thin (yet stingy) Kentucky D. There are a lot of motivational factors, matchups and reasons why the Vols embarrass Kentucky Saturday.

Jesus...what happened to Aaron Judge the postseason? Talk about a bad time to have a slump!

It's really not that surprising to me. In the postseason good pitching gets out good hitting. Batters only face the best pitchers, no more facing the White Sox fifth starter and one legged guys out of the pen.

Vols vs Kentucky scores?

let's just work on scoring in the first quarter or first half as a goal and build from there... I think the kroger coal miners will keep it a bit closer than most want in the first half but we wear them down in the second half and end up putting 30+ on the board... I believe they may get to 10 when it's all said and done...

31-35 Vols... we get a couple of deep balls to finally connect and we may flex to 42
7-10 kitties

I’m in Atlanta and a new guy at my office told me he and his buddies go to a new SEC school every year to see a game. This year it’s Vols and they picked the UK game. Even before the season started I told him it’d likely be a night game with us wearing black. He’s in for a treat, I think, but I didn’t build it up very much. Hopefully Vols win and he brings back soe fun stories.

Me and a buddy used to do the same. Don't go to Gainesville, FU fans are horrible, they are all crackheads. If you go to Oxford don't take your wife. Alabama fans are kinda lame, like game of bridge with Nana's friends. Just plain retarded in Athens.

My group of friends hit up a new venue every year. Not just necessarily in the SEC. We did Clemson last year for the Florida St game. We’ve collectively been to LSU, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Alabama, Ole Miss, Miss St, and Georgia Tech.

We don’t attend games that has our favorite team playing as the road team. We attend as neutral fans to really soak in the experience. We really enjoy seeing new venues and exploring new towns.

The other thing is if he streaks on a slant across Nico's face even at 80% you ignore him and Nico hits him on the numbers he's JUMPING UP AND CATCHING IT THEN FALLING DOWN. Now some other WR that doesn't know their route tree on the field running a go instead of that slant and Nico is throwing into a pick 6 potentially.

Lots more to being a great WR in this offense than being fast and catching the ball, a lot of "in this situation you run this route" and if Mike or any other young WR doesn't KNOW when to run what they're for sure a turnover liability as mentioned before.

I went to the Alabama game in '22, and there was a group of people around us that were from New York visiting with one of their buddies who had a daughter at UT and had never been to a college football game.

Could you imagine if that was your first game? They were hooked.

I went to a few games in Athens including one vs Auburn. It was a blackout night game and the UGA fans were still lame. Basically sitting on their hands. That was during the Richt years so maybe they’ve stepped up a bit.

I watched us lose to UGA in Athens too. It was a Dooley year. I think we left at halftime because we looked so bad. I remember listening to the UGA radio call on the way home and you’d think they beat the ‘85 Bears.
