Damn, Vols in your head because of one 5*?



Am I even trolling?

I wouldn't mark Utah State down as a "should win" at this point. Arkansas State and Chattanooga are the wins. Oklahoma and Georgia are the losses. Florida maybe a win, but very unlikely. Same with Ole Miss. Utah State could be a win. So I say below because I don't see us getting more than 5 this season anyway.



TBH I know nothing about Utah State this year. It just seems like a game UT should win. Butch has y'all on the right path. It sucks that y'all have had a murderess OOC schedule the past three years. I was debating putting the UGA game instead of the OM game. I think both could be winnable for UT but both could definitely turn ugly. Who do you feel more confident against?

Utah State has made a habit out of almost winning games against "name" opponents and losing by the skin of their teeth. Auburn in 2011, Wisconsin in 2012, and USC last year. They have a phenomenal QB in Chuckie Keeton, and I don't think it's controversial to say that the three teams I mentioned are better than we will be. That doesn't mean we'll lose for sure, but Utah State is hardly a game I'm taking for granted.

I think Butch has us on the right path too, enough to make us a good team again, but I'm also cognizant of the fact that it's going to take time. The program was in an abysmal situation following the combo Kiffin/Dooley fiascos. It can be fixed, but just not overnight.
