One of the X-factors in this game could be Hunter Henry. They have several WRs out and I would bet that he and Drew Morgan are the focal points in the passing game.

And Rawleigh Williams hasn't really impressed through 4 games. Only one game where he averaged over 4 ypc. It'll be the Alex Collins show.

Our secondary will be tested. Allen has been accurate with the ball. We all know how good their OL is. As good as their offense is, their defense is equally bad.

People saying the rain benefits them are crazy. We are already one dimensional, so it benefits us if they're forced to be.

I have emerged from the abyss of the florida loss. Our offense should be able to have success even w/ the weather. We're the more youthful team as usual but also the more talented team & can't afford to lose. A loss here starts to make this feel like 2012 & this team needs to win a meaningful SEC game w/ UGA & Bama looming.

UT 28-21

Previous Picks:

UF 20 UT 17
UT 55 WC 17
OU 38 UT 31
UT 41 BG 20

Arkansas feels like a rivalry to me. Even though we don't play them often. I feel I know tons of Arkansas fans. Lots of family in Little Rock. The Razorbacks are like the NFL team in that state. Being in Memphis so close to the state line I feel like they're everywhere.

They always talk smack and put down Tennessee. My Dad made a bet with one of my cousins before the season where the loser of this game has to make a video of them singing the winners fight song and post it on Facebook. My Dad has never wavered once in that we would dominate this game since he made that bet. Hope he's right.

I made a similar bet on the Florida game. Butch let me down. Zero fun when most of your wife's family are Gator fans.

Gonna try to enjoy this one the best I can tonight. Already 1/3 through the season, and I don't feel like I've really enjoyed a game yet. Too much anxiety and stress thinking about possible scenarios. Oklahoma was a blast since I was there, but the outcome made it end up being a kick in the gut. Hopefully our boys play extremely inspired and angry tonight, and make this enjoyable to watch. GO VOLS!

When you have no expectations you can be happy with a win, or, shrug the shoulders and say, 'we'll get um next time" in a loss. The UF game removed all of my expectations.

You and I think alike on this.

I'm saying we win tonight 27-24.

My previous picks:

UF 17 UT 14

UT 66 WCU 3

OU 34 UT 30

UT 49 BG 13

If I'm wrong, things are going to get very ugly and Butch may not survive. I don't see us beating UGA or Bama. That makes tonight's game potentially the biggest of his coaching career because if we lose to Arkansas, Butch loses the fanbase, and once that happens it's just a matter of time IMO.

I still get worked up during games no matter what. I'm totally cool with 7-5 or 8-4, I see the progress. It's just a passion for the game and more so my team. Uncontrollable.

Yep. Good news is UGA is back to they're annual underacheiving ways! You can set your clock around that.

I've got two flavors of shock tops, some lone stars, and an assortment of whiskeys and vodkas. Time to kick some ass
