These prediction models or analysts will never pick UT right now. We have an entirely new coaching staff, a ridiculously late start on these top notch recruits, and a poor season last year. Who in their right mind would pick some of the Top 100 players to completely jump ship and pick UT? That being said, if Kiffin pulls just one unexpected coup it's impressive -- the odds are enormously stacked against us.
In the end, this is why NSD will be so much fun for us -- any surprises have a chance of going our way. Few have a chance of going against us.
