To answer the OP, yes we're going to be that good. Vegas doesn't sunshine pump and their bullish attitude towards the Vols says quite a bit.

Yes and No-

I think the Vols are going to be very good, in fact they need to be good or else they have a serious coaching problem on their hands because to not be very good this year with all of the upper class talent on that team would be a horrible look for the program. That said, I anticipate them to have a very solid season and they are definitely the team to beat in the East. They will have a chance to win every single game on their schedule, but outside of a few cupcakes I don't think any wins are guaranteed, especially on the front end of that schedule.

Regarding the Vegas sunshine pumping- see 2015 Auburn.

There is a good shot they finish 1st in the East, but it wouldn't be shocking to see them finish in 3rd.
