Tennessee returns home after a brutal loss to South Carolina.

Keys to Victory:

1. Calm the Storm: Whatever is brewing inside the Tennessee program, Butch needs to step up, and lead this team forward. How they navigate the disappointment that is settling in will tell a lot about the character of this team.

2. Show up and play football:
Realistically, it shouldn't take any more than that. A lot of people will be clamoring for a Tennessee loss this weekend, but the only way that happens, is if Butch has completely lost this team, and they literally lay down and refuse to win, ala Wyoming vs TN.

3. Something New: There is a lot that is not working right now on offense. Try something new this week. New formations, new players, new coordinator... whatever.

4. Have Fun: The morale of the team seemed to be really off on Saturday. It seems they have trended downhill since the 2 OT loss to A&M. This game means nothing, but maybe the team can enjoy the game once again.

Prediction:
Always hard to predict Tennessee vs a clearly outmatched opponent. The tend to play down the competition, and the coaches do not call a "killer instinct" game plan.

I wouldn't put it past This team to no-show again.

Especially out the gate, that's their M.O.

Hard to predict anything on offense looking good since it hasn't all year outside of a couple halves. This one will be closer than it should be.

Yep. That is why my score prediction is so low. Maybe I will go back to change it to 27-9.

And just to throw another little prediction in there… Barnett ties Reggie's sack record. I am a little bit sad that his performance on the field will be overlooked this year when it is all said and done. He deserves the Outland trophy in my opinion, but I will go ahead and go on record that it will be given to Jonathan Allen at Alabama or Myles Garrett at A&M.

Johnathan Allen had that trophy before the season started
