Maybe fun to revisit next Tuesday. GT sitting as a +3 dog currently. They had a full pad practice in the new dome yesterday. UT has a walk thru Sun. Neither team divulging QB starters.

Step up and give us your final score...

I got GT 30-28, jmo

I'm thinking Tennessee wins 34-24 or so.

Tennessee's top level talent level is really undersold otb imo. I understand the skepticism of the coaching staff, but I think Tennessee will win pretty easily.

Tennessee is in some trouble due to lack of quality depth at some positions this season but that shouldn't show up in game 1.

Paul Johnson is built for games like this. He has half the talent and 2x the brains of Lyle. Tech upsets Tennessee.

34-20 VOLS

Folks are going to be surprised at how much we've improved on defense

tRant will harp on about how GTECH isn't very good, 6-6 team, etc.

Let's see...

GT without their top RB

Vols without Kirkland, Richmond and who knows how Butch will dive up QB snaps

I think Vols' D-line and secondary are solid, but LB corps scare me vs. option.

I just hope GT kicks it to Berry once or twice, cause that'll be an instant six or close to it.

We have the talent and should win, but we also have Butch Jones and Brady Hoke on the sidelines so who knows...

Vols 24-17

This is a terrible matchup for the Vols on injuries alone with the continuous cut blocks the D-Line will receive. This is a toss up to me. Yes, I believe the Vols have more talent on paper, but it's week one for both and who makes fewer mistakes is a guess for everybody. Having to make a guess, I will go with my team by a point (24 to 23).

I predict UTk to fall a-hole first onto an alkyhall funnel.

Tennessee 27-20. Teams generally do well when given time to prepare for the GT offense. Tennessee should have a huge advantage with their OL vs GT DL and be able to power run all game. GT breaking in a new QB as well

If this game were in November sandwiched between 2 conference games, I'd say Ga Tech wins. However, with ample time to prepare, I think the Vols win this one.

UT 31-24

To be frank there are so many unknowns with our team this year I'm simultaneous expecting us to go 7-5 and 10-2. This is easily the least certain I've been one way or the other heading into a season.

If Tech doesn't engage in an early season fumble fest (which has happened), I think Tech wins. Tech winning depends on holding the ball and grinding the UT defense down.
