Yeah the UF-Bama stretch is going to be interesting. I read a really good article the other day (i'll try and find it) that essentially said while that stretch is tough it's also after tough games for each of those opponents. UF has to play @ UK the week before us (which if they lose could be a huge demoralizer), UGA plays AU and Bama before, Arky plays A&M before, and Bama has a gauntlet of UGA, A&M, Ole Miss and Arky before us. And we have a bye right before them so It will be very interesting to see what comes of it.

Even if those ridiculous %'s were correct, you do realize that with all those 50/50's that would translate to about 8-4 or 9-3 most years?

11-1 SEC Champion

I see 6 lose-able games on that schedule. I think Tennessee will win two of them for an 8-4 regular season.

All I'm seeing is 3 losses before y'all play UGA and 4 before you play Bama.
Let's see how quickly those percentages drop after 4 weeks.

In what universe is UT favored over UGA????
Though it is amusing to see that nosedive as soon as you hit the Alabama game ;)

8-4 sounds about right.

More proof that ESPN hates UT, they always underrate us.

Do you know how many other words that begin "C" that you can't spell without UT?

What a retarded, made up graph. Can you find a single link where anyone in the media predicted Tennessee to win 10 games in any season from 2009 to 2014?
Posted on 7/27/15 at 12:26 pm to NorthGAVol
Damn that schedule is weak! Couldn't find another Jr. High to play?

Basing it off the Vol fans expectations. You guys adopt what the media says a lot of times, but otherwise are just out of your mind with your expectations.
Posted on 7/27/15 at 12:29 pm to ForeverGator
Surely you have proof of these expectations other than that sick graph?
Posted on 7/27/15 at 12:29 pm to ForeverGator
And I am ok with it. You could pull off a miracle versus Oklahoma and come into Florida 3-0 and be top 10, then we will just crush your dreams and make it 11 straight.

South Carolina is only predicted to win 4 games according to ESPN's FPI.
Posted on 7/27/15 at 1:19 pm to NorthGAVol
But all Vol fans think 8-4 huh
