I have no clue. Especially guys like Coleman and Roberson. Those 2 have regressed.

It just never fails. This was the year when things were supposed to come together. No more weaknesses at key positions. And both linebackers are now injured and our Ol has stunk. I do believe they will get better. Hopefully it's before Saturday tho

I want to think like this. But our OL vs their DL has me extremely worried

The tackles have me worried. Guards, not as much. If we call the right game plan, we can work around that and put up enough to win. We need to run well up the middle, have Dobbs run well up the middle. Hit short to intermediate routes up the middle, and capitalize on a few play action deep balls. A few special teams points and turnover points wouldn't hurt. This team can win this game if FL's offense struggles as I expect.

Ole Miss is going to teach UGA a lesson this week in Oxford. Can't wait to see UGA exposed, and then watch them begin to melt down after Tennessee gets a hold of them a week later.

I agree totally! Mizzou should have beaten them, they did what we did last year, stayed ultra conservative at the end and tried to hang on. If they could have gotten last first down, game over..

miracle to beat FL.... may only happen if backup QB actually plays for them and he stays frazzled. Will be a low scoring game because our OL will continue to flat out suck and get thrown around and on their arses. If the miracle happens, and we get JRM and Chance back, maybe we pull an upset between the hedges, but it will all be on our D.... A&M and Bama are big losses... we get the rest of our injured back for the end of the season cupcake run... depending on the miracle situations will tell whether or not we go to the SEC championship and get our arses handed to us a second time by Hurts... we go to a descent bowl game. If we lose 3 out of the 4, which is highly expected with the lack of performance and injuries thus far, we go to a low tier bowl and squeak by with a demotivated performance. Recruiting will slow to a crawl and the sunshine pumpers will try and make excuses... Mahoney and maybe, just maybe, Debord finally get their walking papers... we sign a very heavy 3* class and sink into mediocracy again.... the sunshine pumpers come back out to make excuses for the coaching staff and say brick by brick, even if we are building an out-house... 2016 season and '17 recruiting class in the books.. hit the reset button.... Butch gives a bunch of coach speak about buying in and it being a building process that takes time, all the while other teams rise and prosper. The same highly touted players we recruited have another "growing" year according to Butch and continue to under perform and do not develop. We blink and we are in year 5 with this conference USA coach and staff and we have become a tick above the Miss St, KY, Vandy, and Mizz of the SEC... cool. But Butch and staff have been worth every million... August 2017, please someone come back and tell me I am not dead nuts on... It is what it is... no sugar coating

Take a breath and relax, Cochise. It's just football.

I'm as down about this team as I was post Arkansas game last year, yet somehow we're 3-0 with a beautiful opportunity to still win the east.

Make me a believer again, Butch.

Dobbs needs to be a threat to take off at all times, he's just not a very good passer beyond 10 yards. When they take the reigns off him and let him go, he's significantly better.

The QB battle next year is going to be VERY interesting. We have 3 very capable QB's ready to take over, each with different strengths.

I find this to be a false narrative. Other teams throw 10-15 yard out or crossing patterns and the WR/TE/RB takes it to the house. Oline and WR is our most pressing issue.

After watching the Bama and Ohio State games I hope we are recruiting hard hitting MLBs. Need guys that will enforce that we don't want you running a thing on us.

SN: Funny how Bama is running the spread a lot with Hurts. Even Saban will let someone else run his offense after being conservative at first. Butch should take a hint and step back.

The past few years, I've felt like this is finally the year we beat Florida. It felt right, I liked our matchups. We were close in talent, and I finally felt like this is the year. It never was.

This year, we have no momentum. People everywhere feel like we can't get it going on offense, defense lost some of our best players. UF is playing the cursed backup QB. This just isn't the year.

Which is precisely why it is the year.

Vols 48
UF 10.
