Wonder if Napier will be fired after the game when we beat them?

first loss in 20 years in the swamp, 1-2 record to start then they have to go play at UK.

From this article, a quote from Joe Milton:

I hope they keep him forever

Joe Milton out to prove he's ready for prime time as Tennessee seeks first win in The Swamp since 2003

Florida's had the number of its SEC East rival, winning nine straight at home and 16 of 18 meetings overall since 2004

“These are strange and thrilling days at Tennessee. Milton comes into the Florida game without an interception in his last 239 throws (going back to his Michigan days). That's the second-longest streak in the country. The last time he threw a pick was against Wisconsin three years ago. Those Badgers were quarterbacked by Graham Mertz, now the Gators' starter.”

SEC college football picks, odds in Week 3: Georgia faces first real test, Alabama looks to bounce back

SEC Smothered & Covered this week looks at two big conference games and several key out-of-conference tilts

Tennessee is what?​

When Week 3 college football lines were released, I was shocked that Tennessee was only a 7-point favorite over Florida. I was even more shocked to see it drop to -6.5 shortly thereafter. Sure, it's in Gainesville, but Florida's offense isn't exactly on par with USC or Florida State. That always makes me take a step back and wonder what I'm missing. After a few days of thought, it still doesn't make sense. Florida's offensive line hasn't impressed, quarterback Graham Mertz is average, at best, and Tennessee is No. 2 in the nation in tackles for loss (25).

Is Tennessee's offense a liability after what it showed (or didn't show) last week? Maybe that's the case. It would be great for the conference if this matchup is competitive, and oddsmakers certainly see that as a possibility.

No. 11 Tennessee at Florida​

It's impossible to trust Florida's offense. Mertz can't stretch the field and Tennessee's defensive front will get after him from the moment toe meets leather. Tennessee's offense is way too talented and dynamic to struggle for the second straight week. Tennessee will be up double digits at halftime and might make it a three-touchdown game by the time things wrap up. Pick: Tennessee -6.5

Imagine what this thread could have been if it'd have had an unofficial prethread thread?

Thanks @frank.

The only thread in the history of threads with an assistant thread.

I hope not. Watching Florida under perform is one of the greatest things I have seen in years.

2 defensive scores and a kick return

 

[Vols2DaWall]

I think regardless of our offense—our defense will be able to keep them in check. We are going to pressure Mertz and shut down their running game. I don’t think they can score 24.

I don’t trust our offense yet. I can see us stumbling on this first huge road game. I see it as a 27-17ish kind of game. Now—if we have a lot of turnovers, then this is all a moot point.

[therickbol]

I am in a group message with guys that play basketball once a week. There is at least 1 big Florida fan in the group. The context of the first message is that most of us were not able to play this week. Only 6 guys said they could make it. I took that opportunity to throw my first jab of the week. Vols by fiddy!!!!

 

[Lars]

I truly hope that this game with Florida does not turn into one of our shear heart attack type performances that must be won on the very last play. The Vols need to WTFA.

 

[Devo182]

The more I rewatch, the more Josh Pate I've heard and all the sharps' opinions and expert analyses this week, I really don't see what chance we have of beating Florida

Spoiler: depressing analytics if you dare to view them

by more than 51 points. So, Vols by fiddy.

idk what's going on. It was supposed to be a Vol bodyslamming a gator wearing a florida jersey.

There are some questionable things going on in the pic. The player's feet, the leg with some fingers growing out, Willys eyes, the hands. . . etc. Sally is a freak.
