Remainder of the season 2-5

I’m in the minority here but while I don’t think UT will run the table the last six games, it wouldn’t surprise me if Vols won four or five of the last six. The last two games were brutal, but it took a series of quite unlikely events at the ends of both games or else UT would be 21-4, 10-2 SEC versus 19-6, 8-4 SEC.

The unknown to me is the team psyche and how they will respond to adversity after the last two games. In order to finish the season successfully, they have to regain a chip on the shoulder, “us against the world” mentality and keep it- plus stay healthy of course. Everyone is down on them, including many of our own fans. If UT uses this to fuel them, they will bounce back and finish strong. On the other hand, if they sulk and have a defeatist mentality, the thread title record is very possible.

I'm giving them 6-1 down the stretch. I think these last three games were the wake up call they needed. They started feeling themselves. Listening to the outside noise about how good they are. Rick Barnes will get them back on track. I think we beat Bama as well. Drop one of our road games against Kentucky or auburn
Took 3 critical/winnable games to wake this bunch up? If so, that's very unsettling and hard to wrap my head around.
