Not to mention A&M. Not a lot of gimme's early. 3 of the first 4 are at home, but they are tough.


Exactly. Its a very dangerous schedule. You drop some early games and the team gives up... you are staring at a miserable season. Auburn and Tennessee are sort of joined at the hip here. They both have to survive an early storm if they hope to achieve their goals.

Agree - except Tennessee gets to finish with Missouri, Vandy and Kentucky while Auburn finishes with Arkansas, Ole Miss, Georgia Alabama.

Eesh

I think the difference for Tennessee is that our schedule is always frontloaded and has been as long as I can remember. However, this season's front end slate is the easiest we've had in a loooong time. Playing V. Tech this year beats the hell out of playing Oregon and OU at their respective primes and while your own team sucks. In SEC play we've finally got a roster worth a shite while there's some uncertainty with others that we may be able to capitalize on.
