[NeverWe'llSever]

Honestly, I think this team's ceiling is 9-3. If we go 1-2 against those 3 teams, I don't think we should be disappointed.

Before the game yesterday, I was thinking the team's ceiling is 7-5. I'm glad they surprised me last night, specifically the defense.

I never thought we were a 7-5 team. Thought this was an 8-4/9-3 squad. I’ve seen plenty of 7-5 UT teams and this one at least has an identity on offense (ground game) and defense (front 4 athleticism) that sets it apart from those squads. UT crapping the bed in Gainesville is a bi-annual tradition, so I really didn’t read much into that one. That being said, I think A&M at home is a huge game. I think that game is probably the difference between 8-4 and 9-3, when it’s all said and done.

Alabama, A&M, UGA. These are the most important games left, all must wins. Bama because it’s Bama and Tennessee must get a good streak going against them. UGA and A&M because Tennessee doesn’t lose at home anymore. I’d like to see a record breaking home win streak a few years down the road. If this means dropping the Missouri game(likely) and even the UK game(not very likely) so be it. It would bother me to lose to UK but the other 3 are more important.

Vols aren’t going to win them all - could lose all three with the current level of play of the Vols.
