The Mizzou game scares the heck out of me

[ConantheVolbarian]

I know the mass NPC response will be "Georgia is first," but I'm looking ahead to the Mizzou game with dread. Just look at their game results from this year. Every single SEC loss has been by a touchdown or less basically. The thing that sticks out to me is they have sucked everyone they have played, Georgia included, into low scoring defensive struggles. And that's not even taking into account the fact that we embarrassed them last year and they'll be highly motivated to come in here and try to ruin our dream season. If we play our game and jump on them early we should win easily, but that game has trap game written all over it for a lot of different reasons.

Looking ahead to Missouri is a new one for me.

Kentucky scared me more than Mizzou, and I wasn’t all that worried about them.

They lost to Auburn, and before they fired Hardin, you could make the argument that Auburn was on Vandy’s level of sucking.

Kentucky is better than Mizzou. No need to worry.

You truly are suffering. Missouri is not a problem. The problem is this weekend as you stated, but I have more doubt about USC messing up someone's season than Missouri.

Mizzou beat South Carolina by two scores.

Your Name says it all. They got vaccines for BVS now days, unless you're a anti-vaxer .

You really, really, really need to stop watching football. If Mizzou "scares" you... you just don't need this kind of trauma in your life.

I think UGA is a concern. They're extremely talented and confident.

Mizzou is not a concern. They do not have an offense to speak of... and they're not going to be the team that discovers the magic elixir for stopping UT's O. Give them credit. They did some things really well vs UGA. Things I hope UT can emulate with success.

UGA still had 481 yds of O vs 294 for MU. UGA just couldn't stop shooting themselves in the foot.

I was there last year when UT's O finally started really getting legs in the MU game. It was a trampling... and UT is MUCH better now than they were then.

PS- were you also "scared" of UK?

At full strength, Vols should beat the final 3 opponents without late-game drama. However, @ South Carolina could be tough especially if it's a night game.

Only thing that might cause a little concern is the hangover from Georgia and the starting time

That being said - UT 42 Missouri 13

 

[BigBadVol]

Why do we have so many feeble minded fans?

 

[VolInDayton]

You really should have stopped at "I know people will tell me not to overlook the biggest game in the SEC East of the last decade"

 

[Buzzbait]

Let’s worry about next week NEXT WEEK!

 

[TnVol!]

Beat Georgia!!!

 

[markus]

NO

Mmmmm. Maybe you should be worried about them considering they have been in every single SEC game until the very end. That makes them a dangerous team. That danger factor should be considered doubled as well because they will want to ruin our season after last year. And this will be after a very emotional game for better or worse and that could affect our play.

why are you scared? they can't score and their defense is not Bama/UGA level. Step away from the ledge man

 

[amstelman]

Believe in The Heupel. Have faith in The Hooker.

 

[Daniel_Lincolns_Foot]

We're going to beat Mizzou 63-17 after we beat Georgia 41-31.

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

I've been worried shitless about the Vandy game..

What I do know is that he 2022 MoTigs aren't the 2021 toothless tigers we dragged around the field by the tail. That being the case, I'm glad we have them at home at Neyland.
