correct, but neither position is right at the moment!:boredom:

No they arent but i stopped believing in anything UT football until I see it, not trying to be negative about it just been let down so many since 1986 was born into UT athletics. Lol i actually told my dad Saturday night thanks for putting the burden of fan hood on me. Kind of like crack to a crack head no matter how bad it hurts you you always come right back to it

I think the fact that I have written a check to the university every year since 2008 speaks plenty to me being a "true fan" just because people get pissed doesnt mean they arent a fan

We simply ARE the Tennessee Vols!!!

We should never back down to any team even in the down times of totally rebuilding our football program!!!

You just never know when our Vols will get it done and pull out a big upset WIN!

Besides being almost bankrupt we still have our pride and traditions to defend.

#BrickbyBrick...VFL...GBO!!!

The key is to focus your frustration in a POSITIVE way...same for all complainers and others wringing their hands and gnashing their teeth on VN. Thank you for your contributions since 2008.

Not concerned at all with this staff and 9 months to prepare and CBJ hand picked incoming freshman class we will have no problem winning.

I don't think we should but it out. We probably won't win next year (it might even get ugly), but that 2015 game in Neyland is an opportunity for our team to make a statement on a national stage.

New rule: Anyone who says we need to play Oklahoma is prohibited from using tough schedule as an excuse for a bad season.

If OK even thinks they could come to Neyland and get embarrassed they will write us a check and schedule OBU faster than you can blink.

The game that should have been bought out was this year's Oregon game. Tennessee plays a hard enough in-conference schedule. There is no reason why we should add to that with an out of conference team. Schedule an NC State, VTech, Oregon State, Minnesota, etc... These games are manageable. At least until this program gets its feet back under it. Losing seasons are doing nothing but hurting the cause.

The Vols would have lost all of those except maybe NC State.

Unless we're unexpectedly good next year, Oklahoma will not be worried about getting blown out in 2015.

That game will be an opportunity for an upset that could be a program changer.

Consider buying out the Oklahoma game for the better of the program in the long run? I was upset when dooley backed out of unc but damn we have struggled to get to 4 wins so far this year. So would it be in the best interest to buy them out and play a weaker opponent at home or just man up and play them and risk getting blown out and losing confidence in the first few weeks of the season?

they should buy it out, it will just be a loss.

over half of the incoming freshman will be starting and I have no problem with that because this class actually has talent and the word we haven't heard in years... SPEED

I have been saying this for years. OOC games do not matter.

Period.

If a team goes 11-1 with 1 loss to Oregon or Oklahoma, then so what, they still play for the crystal

If a team goes 5-7 with a loss to Oregon or Oklahoma, then they shouldn't go bowling anyway.

Early in the seasons is the time to play a game that will only HELP the team get better for when it matters most (ie SEC PLAY). So I don't care if we play OU or not, i most definitely would not buy them out. It will be a good early season test for the program with very little down side (barring bad injuries)

EDIT: if you folks are looking at next year and saying "Gee, we should buy out OU so we can get 6 wins and go to a bowl game", then I think you need professional help.
