1) National TV: Exposure on a National network, even if we have to listen to Vergne and Danielson. Feels good to be in the spotlight.
2)Igniting a fan base: A win over the Dawgs will unite our fan base and will perhaps help us see the progress we are making under Butch. Hard to see the progress amidst the losses sometimes.
3)Recruiting: A win could perhaps help swing a couple kids who are on the fence between the Vols, Dawgs and others and give us an advantage in building on our already solid class. Not to mention help keep some of the verbals come NSD.
4)Confidence builder for Worley and Co. A big performance from JW could help spark some confidence into our young receiving core and help get him in the right frame of mind heading into the October and November stretch.
5)It's Georgia: Plain and simple. I know they are not on par in terms of rivalry implications such as Florida or Bammer, but a win over the no. 6 Bulldogs will still be sweet nonetheless.

That is my perspective heading into this game Saturday afternoon. I know I picked the Dawgs 35-24 for gift-card winning purposes, but I just put on my orange shades and I'm picking the Vols 31-24. So get ready Butches!! The day is coming. An overconfident ( hopefully) Dawgs team against our beloved Vols, who so desperately need this win for our program. I look forward to celebrating with you all about 7:30 on Saturday evening. Go Vols!! Eerily reminiscent to 2004 in my opinion. Flame away!!

OP's 1,2,3,&5 don't matter.

Players are what's important.

I could address each point and explain but I'm choosing not to. Y'all just need a win.

I really do hate coming into these threads because it puts all this false hope in me that we have a chance to win a game like this and gets me optimistic. For that 5 minutes of the first quarter I actually feel like it can be done just like at Oregon then all reality comes crashing back down onto me.

Sadly, there are more than 5 reasons why we lose this game.

IMO, this thread will be far more applicable when we get to the Auburn game.

Here is what I would like to see, at least put a scare into UGA. I don't expect us to win against a #6 team right now but is South Alabama can put a scare into us why can't we do the same to some of our conference foes?

So recruiting isn't important now.. that's a new thought.

Not as important now as you believe it is. They need to dance with who they have now and try to scrape together something worthy of inviting a recruit to come see first.

Well, I don't know how worthy the product on the field will be, but I think I read that 41 recruits will be there on Saturday to see it.

I read that too. Sell your gameday atmosphere. Tell the fans to stay at the game. Wave your pom poms, and be loud.

I understand the idea may be foreign to you, but at Neyland we have to sit down and be quiet. Pom poms might block someone's view also.
