Does not like the match up against the Vols this weekend at all.

Several take aways:

-He does not like the match up of our tall WR's against their secondary. Mentioned that this is one of their weakest spots on the field and said that they will be giving up quite a bit in size.
-Very concerned about how much they are struggling on both OL & DL. Said the DL is made up mostly of talented under classmen that have left a lot to be desired in terms of production/push/presence.
-Does not like the match up vs Josh Dobbs. Said Dobbs doesn't have the arm that Kelly has but is much better with his legs than Kelly is and can hurt you enough with his arm that you can't sell out on the run or we will make you pay for it.
-Very concerned with the lack of push and aggression with their OL. Said that they want to line up and play "Alabama" football and run it down your throat, but don't have the athletes to do so. Thinks they are still a bit away from having the recruits that they need to be successful running that scheme.

Those are just a few points that he brought up. He sounded very concerned going into this game. Doesn't think that Georgia has a great shot unless they can win the turn over battle and even then it would have to be by more than +1. He gave UT and our roster a lot of credit. Praised the athletes and depth that we have built under Butch. Overall a lot for VOLS to be excited about.

For the first time in a long time we have the advantage at most positions outside of RB(And that's probably a wash with Chubb not being 100%) and TE.

We are the better team and should win this game. Here's to hoping we can make it 2 in a row over UGA and 11 wins in a row. GBO

You could literally hear it in his voice and on air demeanor that he is not looking forward to this Saturday. I loved every minute of it.

One thing that surprised me with Butch and this team is how the 1st half went and we start the 2nd half with and INT, but the team didn't get demoralized and stepped it up. Why they can't come out of the gate that way I don't know but given the series history and they way thing were going not many teams would have the mental fortitude to do what they did. It impressed the hell out of me.

If you guys don't win by 14 or more then you've underachieved.

I'll be happy with a 1 point win, but I feel like it should be closer to 7-10 points.
