USU Game & Season Predictions

I say for Butch to have Worley wing the ball around the field while taking advantage of numerous mismatches the Vol WR's have over the USU secondary in size, speed, and talent. Worley has his first 300+ yard game and Vols win handily 42-14.

You've inadvertently tried to take them somewhere they're not comfortable going. If 7 wins is "reasonable" then falling short would force them to confront "why". They'd much rather think 5 wins meets expectations, six wins exceeds, and somewhere off in the distant future UT might compete again.

OR... in the case of guys like BeattieFeathers... the very notion of having the expectation to win is repulsive.

:good!:

The funny thing is as the opening game draws near those same sunshine pumpers (6-6, 5-7 clan) will up their prediction. They can't help it.

I just hope we have more than a 5 win season so the Negavols can cry. They can crawl back into their holes,and take their arrogant, condescending attitudes with them.

That's just it...the "Negavols" are saying 7-5 or 6-6. It's the Sunshine Pumpers that are saying not to expect anything more than 5-7.

Huh? Anyone who predicts more than 5 wins is often called a sunshine pumper. You've got it mixed up.

IMO USU has 2 players that out of 22 starters on O and D are better than ours. They would be QB- Keeton and OLB Fackrell (sp). If we can't game plan around them then we are in for a really long season.

34-14 Vols

Edge contain Keeton; perhaps spy him; knock the crap out of him every time you can make a clean hit.

8-4 Worley is a fantastic game manager, makes some throws that win us a couple games and has a decent run or two. North has 1k receiving, Lane has 800 rushing with Hurd getting 500. Our D and QB play are noticeably better. We get the Gator monkey off our back at home. We show Vandy what happens when we retain a competent coach that actually attempts to recruit. USU lingers for the whole first half only trailing 20-14 at half, but then we take over on O to start the 3rd quarter and score on the drive they punt we kick a field goal they punt we punt they punt we score another TD because they're exhausted after chasing Vic, Malone, Smith, Von, North, Croom and pig and being run over by Wolf, Hurd and Lane. Vereen, Maggit, Bates, AJ and Cam Sutton get very friendly with Chuckie Keeton delivering a defensive effort to the tune of 2 sacks, 2 ints. 89 yards passing 11 yards rushing for Chuckie and a total of 71 yards rushing as a team. Lane will have 108 yards Hurd coming in at 62 yards throw in some from end arounds, Worley tucking it for a wide open first down and we are over 200 on the ground for the day... Yeah pretty low actually but Worley spreads the love and throws for 200+ also. Croom, Wolf, Lane, North have TD's Butch uses the game to test the kickers with 3 field goals.


I see.

With what we know now from the practice, starting QB named (Worley), etc... Predict the USU Game score, and the rest of the season based off that. Should be interesting.

vs. USU W 34-31
vs. Arky State W 41-17
@ Oklahoma L 52-14
@ Georgia L 35-21
vs. Florida L 24-17
vs. Chattanooga W 38-3
@ Ole Miss L 31-21
vs. Alabama L 35-10
@ South Carolina L 28-27
vs. Kentucky W 31-23
vs. Missouri W 41-38
@ Vanderbilt W 38-10

Don't mark Ole Miss as an L yet! They don't look to be as good as hyped up to be.
