If Tennessee goes 9-4(wins Bowl game) this season do y'all think Tennessee would be ranked in the 2015 Preseason top 25? I could very well see Tennessee in this scenario being in the Preseason top 25 and picked 3rd in the SEC East.

Offensive line will not get us 9 wins. Two true freshmen lining up next to each other is good for the future but not now. We have to improve up front!

Not arguing with you but didn't we have a lot of freshmen on the O-line in 2009 and we went to a bowl game against Va. Tech?

I know Stone & JuWan played alot that season.

True, but I dont see any of our linemen in that catergory.

IF we went 9-4 and won a bowl game I would bet my house we would be well within the top 25 pre season next year. Also CBJ would be unanimous Coach of the Year.

Stone, JuWan, and Fulton came in the 2010 class. We had a very experienced offensive line to start 2009 season. Aaron Douglas was the only underclassman on the line. We did have some injuries into the season and the Sullins brothers had to start, but even though they were walk-ons, at least they were 5th year seniors.

Absolutely. Going into 2015 a lot of the questions from 2014 will have been answered, we'll being coming off another top 5-10 recruiting class and this year's freshmen will be seen as good SEC players and the cornerstone for a successful season. Biggest legitimate question the talking heads will pose as a reason to not pick UT as a top SEC East team is who is the QB.

OU is literally the toughest and most talented team UT will face this year, even in the SEC. There is no reason they can't have a pretty good year if they work on fixing the mistakes and "play like heck".

2005 team went 5-6 then 9-4 the next year then 10-3..then it all went to shizzle.

If we go 8-4 this year with our schedule we would be a top 25 team going into the bowl game. So yes with a win in that bowl taking us to 9-4 we would def be a top 25 team going into 2015.
