And yet we continuously see the whining and worries about the O-line.

Trust the Heup.

100% of my bets are that he wins 8-9 games, and acts like Roman conqueror marching back to Rome after destroying the Germanic tribes.

I don't think he gets to 7. I think he goes for 5 or 6. . . maybe not that. I don't think they can succeed in year 1 with that massive roster turnover. . . at least not 8+ wins, as 5 wins would probably be considered a success with what they have been.

After witnessing what an F2 did to my inlaws home and the impact it continues to have one them, I don't see how deliberately placing yourself in the path of a tornado can be glorified.

Only if it's getting some real data to understand how to stop them or protect against them. . . and that could easily be done without physically being inside. It seems almost like an extreme sport. . . it'll be in the X-Games soon, sponsored by Red Bull and Mountain Dew.

My daughter can do this… Should I get her a try out for an NFL team?

 

[volbeast33]

That’s how we use to build our offensive lines during the 80’s and 90’s.

Would be interested to see this adjusted for strength of schedule.

Colorado was so so so putrid last year… winning 5-6 games would be like winning 11 at nearly everywhere else. It’ll take some time to fix that mess

 

[VolNash17]

Vols owned Bama this year. Love to see it. Finally like how it used to be #GBO

Saw this in front of me yesterday. Let the debate!

If Colorado finishes better than Florida do they fire Billy for Deion?

I think he will squeeze a bowl game out of them.

Looks like we're going to be relocating out of Dalton, GA down to Cherokee County. If anyone has any recommendations on areas to live, let a brother know. We're probably going to rent for the first year or so. We'd like to be at around $2,500 or less.

Not sure how I'm ever going to get over having to move away from a place that can only be described as a mixture of Shangri-la, Camelot, and Xanadu

Canton is a nice town. Probably a lot of options there. Ballground is a cool area too. The County is huge.

“How will we replace SPRAGGINS?”

“How will we replace Cooper?”

“How will we replace Nichols”

“How will we replace Umarov?”

“How will we replace…?”

Did I really read several pages back that McGill is expecting us to be 6-6 or maybe 7-5 this year?

I'm actually leaning more towards 9-3, with the possibility of 8-4 if Joe struggles..

Breakdown of the OL. Wright is irreplaceable.

McGill always plays it conservatively. It's his disposition. I understand him concerned primarily lest people turn on the staff if the slightest thing goes wrong. He's allergic to high expectations but loves high end results like everyone else.

I think this is definitely a legitimate concern after we arrived early and had a great season last year. Taking a step back after a great year does get the grumbling going. I still think we are in the 8-4, 9-3 range though and that really should be acceptable imo.

I know someone in AL who has the "VOLS 1" license plate. He really wanted "52 49" for his plate this winter, but didn't want to give up his long-time classic. So you know what he did.

Bought an extra car.

My wife called me while I was at the bar and said if you're not home in 10 minutes I'm giving the dinner I made for you to the dog.

I made it in 5 minutes. I'd hate for something that bad to happen to that poor dog.

I hope that new car is powder coated.

Yeah my genetics teacher was the same. Understood every other word. I zoned out a lot in that class...

Calculus for me. Only spoke 2 words of English.

“Do This”

When asked to explain why and how, the only response was “Do This” absolutely sure that she also only understood “Do This “

Couldn’t have dropped the class any quicker.
Took me a while to get through Calculus because none of them spoke English.
Then I got lucky and found Wally. He was an actual American. He could explain the processes in English! Calculus still sucked but at least I knew why and how it sucked.
I’m still bitter about the weed out courses required for medical school: Calculus, Physics and Organic Chemistry. The courses were okay, but it was almost like UTK hired the worst professors to torture students with aspirations to go to med school…

So how bad do the Lakers smoke the Warriors tonight?

I'd say by about 21 points
