if he can even get it there

I'm positive when kid turns 16 he could get the ball to the plate from 60'6".

I'd say it would still be 77mph from a MLB mound.

Could you throw 77mph at 12 years old? I probably couldn't.

Who cares? That wasn't the point.

Not even sure if option F is mathematically possible. But a coin toss between us and Alabama is absolutely what I'm rooting for.

Winning the coin toss and playing in Atlanta vs losing the coin toss and watching Vol fans storm the Birmingham office (while still being in the playoff). It's really a can't miss scenario.

Wouldn't our head to head already determine???

Is it just me or does anyone else think UGA drops at least 2 of their 6 ranked opponents? I think Carson Beck is grossly overrated as well.

UGA's starters (aside from WR) are likely to go undefeated. Transfer portal has eroded depth. Even Kirby complained about it to media. So for me it depends on how healthy they are. I would predict one loss. I would envision a shoot out game.
They will not lose to Clemson. It's too early and Clemson's lines are not what they once were. The games they could lose IMO in order of my perceived likelihood.

1. Bama (wild card)
2. Texas (RB is serious issue now)
3. Ole Miss
4. UT

I can't say I do. Honestly, prepared to be quoted on this one. The Ole Miss game definitely feels like one of those Kiffin has every year where his team underperforms and it isn't close in the 4th.

Hopefully we are in a position to go into that game believing we have a chance, but hard to pick us to win in Athens as of today.

Their best shot at losing two would be Clemson and Texas IMO. Do not see them losing both of those games. Speaking of overrated QBs, Quinn Ewers will have to win that game by himself. I can't imagine they will have any rushing game to speak of against top level defenses.

I am so ready for the season. Done with predictions. Done with playoff bubble talk. Let's play the games!

Pretty easy to pick us, since we're going undefeated. . .

Less than 2 weeks til kick-off and you're not at 16-0 yet? Amateur hour.

What year did we last have a roster & expectations this high?

Brock Bowers was a cheat code that made the attack work regardless of who called the plays or threw the passes imo.

I just wish we could get close enough to them to have a chance to pull the upset. Living here is...it's just...ugh. They've gotten way too big for their britches.

Umm duhhhhh bro only 90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,00,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,

Probably 01 but CRS is a real problem

 

[vols 30]

Roster? IDK

Expectations? Every year. People would've told you UT was going undefeated with Cornbread and JG

Gosh I almost fell asleep looking at it, it's that boring.

I think he's saying 77 is 77 no matter if it's an MLB round or little league mound.

 

[UTgrad2015]

I'd say it would still be 77mph from a MLB mound.

Not saying right or wrong.. honestly don’t care, but - I had the opportunity to pitch at smokies stadium in high school (JR. year) for a mid season tournament. Had the radar gun going and everything. Threw as hard as I could and topped out at 83 multiple times. Very humbling experience

Yes and I was saying that was equivalent to a MLB pitcher throwing 101mph. That is damn impressive for a 12 year old KID.

I think he was having a joke at the wording.

I'd be surprised if I got that high. 83 is actually pretty good for average Joe.
