Vols beat Auburn by 4

[LittleDTO]

If Dobbs can maintain some offense to get some rest for the defense, AND, our CB can do well in man coverage to allow the safeties to help in run support.......I predict the Vols to win by 4.

mmmmmm k

 

[TheColorOrange]

Lot's of 'if's.' I for one, have faith that they can get it done!

 

[Labotomi]

Tiny, is that you?

 

[LittleDTO]

This matchup is much better than the Missou matchup.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

This matchup is much better than the Missou matchup.

If you say so.

And do we really need a thread for everyone to make a prediction?

 

[Escape Goat]

This matchup is much better than the Missou matchup.

I think its a whole lot worse actually.
Better rushing attack, and a reciever averaging over 20 yards a catch.


On the bright side, Dobbs isn't making his first start.

Which individual matchups do you think are better?

 

[vtvol98]

If TN plays perfectly and Auburn eff's up a lot it's possible. That's the main key to this game, IMO.

 

[utvols1975]

If you say so.

And do we really need a thread for everyone to make a prediction?

My prediction...is yes.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Well we play better at home and not so much on the road, so I say we have a much better chance of beating Auburn.

 

[BigOrangeLoyalist]

UT can win if they play perfect, keep a spy on and contain Nick Marshall, and slam Tre Mason through the ground on the first snap.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Gutsy pick,DTO. But your reasoning makes sense.

Speaking of the game, does anyone know what time the Vol Walk starts? Hubby and I are going and need to know the time. Thanks!

If Auburn can run the ball we're screwed because our DL sucks.

Ok, perhaps a little harsh, but the team is going to have to have a big turnaround for any shot. It depends on who shows up. I'm not worried about the offensive line, but the defense.

Right there with you but think we win by 7+ and havent said that many times. We match up really well well with AU. Much better than Mizzou and S.Car and its at home. Its not like AU is playing a brutal schedule, pretty dsmn bad actuslly.

 

[jspvol76]

I'm rolling with DTO on this one!

 

[Titan&Volfan4life]

My prediction is.....























There will be a football game at Neyland stadium this Saturday.

#BrickbyBrick...VFL...GBO!!!

 

[GBOVOLS]

The key is putting a spy on Marshall. Hopefully our LB's can play a little faster this week.

 

[butchball13]

Our run defense scares me.

 

[PuntBamaPunt]

Our run defense scares me.

Its the worst we will have faced so far.

 

[BigOrangeLoyalist]

Its the worst we will have faced so far.

Smokescreen. The run D has just been idling til the AUB game to retain the element of surprise.

I have confirmed Jon Gruden will be UT's coach beginning in 2013. OH WAIT !!!!!!!!!!! LOL

 

[OldRollTide]

sorry no..

 

[Majorvol23]

Its the worst we will have faced so far.

we're definitely no Western Carolina or FAU, that's for sure

 

[ItsAllVols]

1 thing that may help our D-Line is they like to run between the tackles, time for Big Dan to clog the middle.
