re: Justin Cotten and Travis Stano say Tennessee is the best East team

Richt also said this about the Vols...

“They're...playing extremely good football, and especially offensively they are...They’re doing an outstanding job...They’ve got a vertical passing game that I know I envy. We like to throw it down the field, but they can really lay it out there good."

..in 2012.

Uh...that was one of the best offenses we've ever had. It's a shame it was wasted because of Sal Sunseri and Derek Dooley, but we almost beat Georgia that year, and if we had a remotely, REMOTELY competent defense, a halfway competent defense, that's a 9 or 10 win team.

I know, if ifs and buts were candies and nuts...but what Richt was saying about us being "extremely good" on offense was true.

However, on being the best team in the East this year? Pump those brakes.
