Favored in 10 out of 12 games. 1 pick em game (UGA), 1 game as an underdog (Bama).

Vegas is saying VOLS should go 10-2 or 11-1. Would a 9-3 season be the beginning of trouble for Butch?




Favored???? Vegas is about as batshit on the Vols as it gets. Sure we are favored SLIGHTLY on many games but at the same time Vegas DOES NOT expect us to win 10. Their odds on the season win total are incredibly low for us. They have to give us the home field points on a lot of home games but they are giving us +3 (or less) which is your standard home field.

Beyond that, Vegas is there to make you bet. Nothing more or less. Not enough bets on a team? Tweak the odd to to even the bets out. It is NOT there to produce legit w-l odds.

TL;DR - Not just no but hell nah. Be happy with 8-9.
