I'd kill for a 9 win season and a bowl win...
9 wins against 9 teams that sucked last year. The best win they had was over Ole Miss. We weren't anything to brag about. Kentucky, Missouri, Auburn, Presbyterian, UMass, Wake Forest, NC State.
I mean I want 9 wins just as much as the next guy. But mercy, Vandy beats 9 sucky teams and thinks they're something.
They will be lucky to win 5 in 2013.
I think Vandy beats us this year, and probably next year, and then we put them back in their place in year 3 of CBJ
I don't think so. I know Vandy put it on us last year, but remember, Dooley had already given up at that point. That was the week after Missouri. The team didn't care, the staff had lost them, it was over. It's amazing that Kentucky didn't beat us.
Remember, the talent gap is still widely in our favor. Vandy has had a good showing recruiting lately. BUT...we're still better. Just needed a coach.
I don't think Vandy beats us again for a while.
Ridiculous. I hate Vandy. I hope we completely terrorize them this season. They will always be second to us.
By the way....tvols75, did you go to FHU?

Don't concern yourself about Vandy too much. In a short couple of years, they will be back to the normal Vandy.
They have been living off of an easy schedule, the past couple of seasons. Just look at the wins they have had.
They are against teams with losing records; except for Ole Miss, their lone victory against a team that was bowl eligible.
In a couple of seasons, their Auburn will be replaced by A & M on the schedule. We will be much improved and will stomp them. Their Mississippi State will be replace by Alabama.
Once their schedule gets harder, you won't see very many wins.
Also, I find it hard to believe that Franklin's final destination is at Vandy. Once, his stock improves, I would say he leaves Vandy for a job at Iowa, UNC,
Minnesota, etc. and leaves Vandy behind.
Tougher schedule + a new coach = not being bowl eligible.... Then you won't hear a peep out of Vandy!!!!!!
The scoring difference wasn't just based on coaching. They were better than us. They will be better than us this year, and next year we lose a LOT.
Year 3 CBJ should have his players in place, and put them back in their place. I would love to never lose to Vandy and beat them by 100. However, as a realist, we will probably lose to them for the next 2 years...
This season, Vandy plays A&M and Ole Miss in the West. Ole Miss just added that ridiculous recruiting class, and is already much improved under Freeze. A&M is going to slaughter them. Like I said, they'll be lucky to win 5 games next year.
Agree last year was the perfect storm for them this year harder schedule lost a lot of Senors to
"Not every1 can have 60k fan 2 see a spring game but some can win 9 games win a bowl game & graduate 88% of their players not 58% #ANCHORDOWN"
Have fun with this.
