I feel like Butch Jones has built us the type of football team I've always wanted to watch and root for. A mobile QB who carries himself like a future president, an absolute bull at RB, a stable of unique and dynamic WR's, an absolutely filthy defensive line, a shutdown corner, and a ceiling I can't even see anymore. I'm doing that thing I always do again. Build us up into this unstoppable force that I can't picture losing to anybody. But... I feel like I might be right this time.

Go big orange.

No doubt. I've been watching clips from last season all day. Man, losing AJ when we did definitely seemed to kill some momentum. We were hitting on all cylinders in that Kentucky game. I thought we were going to roll over Missouri. They caught another lucky break with that happening. Not this year. Gah. I want to beat them 10 times in a row.

Can anyone tell me which sections have chair back seats that are reasonable? Anyone know where they have chairbacks that are under the overhang? Just curious in case I want to change.

XX, YY, and ZZ...above row 12. But to be under the overhang you'll need to be in the 20s. Careful of being too high in the corner of XX1 and ZZ15...jumbotron is blocked.

They look so sad.

"Since when do rides have a weight limit?"

"How long does it take to rustle up a bucket of gravy?"

"How come dad always gets to take sissy on the ferris wheel first?"

"Everybody is talking about the confederate flag and discrimination. Let me tell you about real discrimination. Coach Nick can't ride anything in this park 'ceptin the teacups!"

The more you know:

I never knew the roll in "roll tide" referred to fat deposits.

I know, I know. Looking up the sack totals didn't scratch the itch, I had to delve into how their offenses looked. I'm not at work today, I have a lot of time on my hands right now.

Learn another language, read a book in a field with which you're totally unfamiliar, work up to 50 pushups in a single set, etc.

Our defense could be best in the conference this year. If offered 27 pts every game right now for our offense, I would take that to the bank and I bet we win at least 9 games. No way our D gives up 27+ more than 3 times.

Since we have signed a new contract with Nike, I wonder if Butch/Hart could re-negotiate Fulmer's contract with the shadow man.

What 3 teams you think about to score 35 points on us?

We will have one of the best Defenses in the SEC, by the end of the year if we stay healthy we will dominate other teams and play with any team in the country and have a very good chance to win, i still think we are one year away from being a playoff team contender, by the time November rolls around and the big IF factor, but if we are healthy there is no reason what so ever we cant beat anyone we play.:rock:

The past 5 years if our defense only gave up 27 a game we'd have a very different staff.

Hell, if Bray and CP's year gave up just 30 a game we probably win a BCS game.

Offenses and schemes are just getting so much better nowadays that a great defense causes turnovers and limits ToP as much as actually giving up points. Defenses giving up less than 30 a game are either playing in terrible conferences or extremely good relative to their competition.

I'm ready to see this defense. Going to be fun watching them run play down. The speed will evident early. JRM, Kirkland and Weatherd at LB will be flying to the ball.

Damn if we had AJ this year we would be a no doubt top 15 team imo and SEC east favs. Crazy thing is that is still not off the table. Really looking forward to this season starting!

Hey, Face. I saw your interaction in the Nike marketing thread. I'm officially moving back in to the recruiting forum full time. Seems like everybody is constantly itching for a knock-down drag-out in the FF.

Yeah, I shouldn't have kept going that long. Lol.

Oh well. Maybe it's bc I didnt go to UT, but I just don't see how people always feel UT is bein defiled by outside organizations that are good at what they do.


Also.... Anybody know anything on Dontavius Blair? Has he moved into the total busy category or slowly progressing to a contributor?

Over/under on how many critical player season-ending injuries we will experience in fall camp?



Sorry, seeing all this positive stuff has somehow triggered my Vol-fan-gut-punch-preparation mode and caused me to channel my inner Catbone.
