Say we lose to Florida

Don’t say that Florida is a bad football team. That is exactly what the talking heads will say is the only reason when we win. Whether it is a game of tiddlywinks I’m playing or a game that any of the Vol teams play I never go into it expecting to lose. The odds may be greatly stacked against us but I always anticipate a win. Glass always half full never half empty. I’ve had many Saturday nights and Sundays sick feelings but by Monday morning I expect to win the next game.

Say we don't! Don't even bring common sense into this. This is Florida week. C'mon man, what's wrong with you? :thud: :loco:

GO VOLS!

I refuse to say it, but should the unthinkable occur, I certainly will not be calling for anyone's job. I'm too level headed to do that. :hi:

I want an eat crow thread from all the sunshine sheep that say every year we beat fla to come back n then make excuses for all the reasons we lost..

Instead of being honest.. We either sux..less talent or coaching..or all of the above..

Folks until we beat fla ga or bama we have accomplished nothing in the sec pecking order.. We've lost to ga.. So what will it be with fla.

The fan base desperately needs a win--a FLORIDA win. Even so, I can't be confident. I've been hyped up for too many florida games only to see us come out and fold.

Uhhhhhh...come on. :clapping:

I remember that feeling in 95 during the bama week. We haven't won in a long time, so can it be this year?

You bet.

Get fired up!!!!! We are due. We are at home. Our team is ready!

It's TIME!!! :rock:

our boys really need to win this game.
I think Butch may lose them if we don't....just my opinion..
but getting up 3 weeks in a row and losing when you have legit shots to win(last week and this week)
not sure how a young team overcomes that

If we protect Worley at all we win this game. If our d continues to play like it has driskell will turn the ball over. It is time to get the florida monkey off our backs and we will do it. But If we do not I still believe in this staff and that better days are rapidly approaching.

+1

I have seen enough to know that we are moving in the right direction. If we do not prevail, then we are not moving in that direction as fast as I would like. But, I will continue to believe in the staff and the knowledge that better days are indeed ahead.

I have a severe case of love/hate with Volnation in-season.

I love reading the rare tidbit of good information, and hate the irrational panic and blaming that comes with every perceived deficiency.

It's like watching partisan political shows or a car wreck on the interstate. I just can't look away.

My feelings exactly. I think we win Saturday, but to read some things here it's as if the game is already over and the celebration has begun. If crap hits the fan and we end up dropping this one, this place will be an absolute dumpster fire!!!

I hope if things do not go our way that the fans will at least show some respect and class as there will be a TON of top recruits in the crowd this weekend and we need to show them this is the place to be...Bad mouthing the coaches and players will only serve to hurt us in the future.

Most, if not all of the prognosticators have picked Florida to win (as of today) on Saturday. I have read post after post from members predicting that we win a close one with a few predicting an all-out blowout.

From what i have read and heard from the talking heads, most feel that Florida has more talent, are rested after having two weeks off, a coach that needs to win more than breathing and a team that is gonna play their hearts out to save him.

I want to believe (really bad) that this is the game that we finally break that seal and bust through. I Honestly think we can, but will we? I really just don't know.

I'm not sure how I will react if we lose. I do know that if we are gonna break this losing streak to Florida it needs to be this year.

Im going to be honest, this game comes down to Turnovers IMHO. If we can capitalize on turnovers and can keep from turning the ball over we will win. We have not been able to score off turnovers all season and we cant do that and expect to win football games.

and Special Teams!!

This is what worries me. The team with more rushing yards have won this game 23 out of the past 24 years. Florida has two really good backs. 235-pound junior Matt Jones and sophomore Kelvin Taylor at 210 pounds. Both Florida backs average 5.3 yards per carry. Then you have Driskel to contend with who averages 4.6 yards per carry and nearly 30 yards per game on the ground including sacks, which always drag down a quarterback’s rushing numbers.

Now, I know our run defense has not been bad, but this still concerns me.

Better run back to that Boost Mobile with the bars on the windows and top up your minutes in case your team wins.

Down here in the dirty south they are talking up TN saying TN can still win the SEC East and very well may do so and it starts this Saturday. I think because LSU fans hate FL more so than TN.

We will beat Floriduh Saturday! Not only will we beat them, but it will be by at least 10 points. I usually don't make predictions but this just feels right. GBO!!!
