Yeah, I'm probably staying away from this one. I hate betting rivalry games.
Same on the 1st qtr. I think the bet for this game will be the 1st qtr total over if it's between 13.5 - 16.5.

If the 1Q total ends up under 14 or the spread is under 7, then I’m probably going to bet. Otherwise, I’ll find some other ones to bet on.

If we put this Florida team down 14 they’re screwed. They can’t throw. We need to get them out of their run and slow the game down plan
Totally agree. We need to have one of those big 1st Q’s we had last year. Put up quick scores and start 2nd Q up 21-0. Then keep the foot on the gas and make it a bludgeoning. I want the final to be 63-0. Get bumped all the way up to #5 in AP and relax for 2 weeks before thumping LSU.
 
my amateur handicapping skills make me think we'll see 1st qtr spread of Tennessee -3.5. I'd bet anything -2.5 and under.

I've been hoping for a 28pt 1st qtr beat down by the Vols vs UF for months.
 
@Glitch, Tyson Park is at the bottom of the strip (on the right of coming down the strip) right after crossing the railroad tracks. If you come in the backside of it (can’t remember the road name), you can buy a parking pass and drive to the far end near the strip end to park legally. Then when we leave, we also leave out the backside, which is a lot easier to get out from there.

@FairburnVol - here is the convo.

Thump LSU, break the Dooley Curse & have Saban sweating coming into Neyland 🤞
 

Our talent was seriously depleted on defense when this staff arrived, but with the way we're recruiting that side of the ball and how great our young defensive guys have played (Pierce, West, Josephs, Herring, Perry, Phillips) I think the defense is only going to get better from here on out.

I'm sure its a fun defense to play in. Guys just playing loose, making plays and being themselves. With as many plays we defend there's always the expectation that 2 to 3 deep on the depth chart will get plenty of real snaps (which is great for development of young players).

A lot of people still think Banks is the weak link on this staff and I just don't see it right now. They're massively improving, there were things he couldn't control in Year 1, and we need the staff stability.
 


bring it on mfer

Translation: lots of "cramping".

Thought the same.

Unless Newt means the bookies are making a play. They do (rarely) do so by allowing their books to become uneven because they feel the public is out of line and are happy to take their money. But, again, really rare. And yeah...the money is clearly coming in on UT.

The ESPN FPI now has it a 15 point game.

I just don't think 11 points is that crazy. Though my heart still says this is a Pitt/7-point type of game. UF will muck it up, have their moments where they frustrate the hell out of us, make a few big plays, etc. We've also been pretty sloppy so far and the run game is questionable. Jmo...unless UF decides to completely implode 3.5 games into the season, which they should've done last year...😏

You twits. I mean it screams for you to bet money on Florida and take the points. We havent beaten Florida by double digits since 2003. Amateurs.

Banks has done an amazing job….. we are lucky to have him
