With Josh "No Brows" Dobbs at the helm, I think UT wins out.

The homer in me says we win out, but I recognize that Missouri is the better team at this point. I do like the fact that we get the Tigers and Cats in Knoxville. Vanderbilt is a total pushover, and there's no doubt in mind we'll win that game by double digit points.

I think Dobbs brings a new dimension to our offense that many on this board just aren't accounting for. He seems to be a phenomenal athlete, and honestly, an underrated passer.

I'm going to say 7-5 with a bowl win against Memphis in the Liberty Bowl.

I think Dobbs will energize your team and you will win out. I think you will see a lot of effort out of your guys the rest of the season.

No other team in the country would be so confident sitting at 4-5. I guess you have all got used to being mediocre down there in Knoxville.

I didn't mean to offend you. It's only an opinion.

Honestly, I haven't seen the Dores play this season, but I was looking at your schedule and saw that you were blown out by Temple, and only managed to beat UMass and Charleston Southern by a combined 4 points.

I don't think it's going to be close, at all.

Oh, I'm not confident about our team at all. There are some reasonable excuses for the Temple loss. First game under a new regime, Temple isn't as bad as expected (just beat ECU), etc. With that said, no SEC team should lose to Temple and it was shameful.

Hopefully we've found some consistency with Johnny McCrary under center but this Saturday will make that known.

As uncomfortable as it makes me I actually thought you all were going to be really, really good after watching your first game or two.

I think our game will be close but we'll just have to see. Hopefully McCrary lives up to how highly recruited he was and turns the team around.

Think they win 2 of 3. Beat Vandy easily. UK will be tougher than they think. I doubt they beat Mizzou.

Kentucky doesn't seem to be playing nearly as well as they were earlier in the season. I say UT wins all three.

Kentucky looked real good against Mississippi State, and everybody around here was predicting they'd beat Missouri. Maybe Mizzou has a good defense that is hard to score on? UT is giving up over 30 points a game in conference play, and I don't see them shutting down UK's offense.

I'll go with 2-1. Could lose to Mizzou and/ or UK but both are at home.

What's big about the UK game is that we get them off a bye, and they've been a completely different team on the road. A tossup for sure, but I'm leaning towards TN in that one.

Mizzou is a coin flip.

Wins against Vandy and Kentucky.

with as crazy as the east has been this year; who the heck knows? I'd say u guys should handle Vandy without too much trouble, but, the other two games could go either way. You guys are at home for those two though... which can't hurt. You guys are loaded with young talent that as they mature will make UT dangerous again in the future. I'm hoping ya'll are still a year away... lol
