Both UT and UK have very strong OL coming back this year. I would make that a push in my book


Which is my point. There’s no “huge UT advantage” there.

Kentucky also returns a very good defense. Likely not a “huge UT advantage” like he claimed there either.

We find new and more interesting ways to lose to shitty UT teams each year. That said, at least we don’t have an anthropomorphic thumb in charge.

The problem is that they will not run a gimmick O with a athletic freak at QB this year. They had the advantage of novelty last year. It didn’t help them win games but it did yield a ton of rushing yards. They are not going to average almost 300 yards a game of rushing O this year. A more realistic figure would be closer to 180 a game rushing while hoping Wilson can average 150 in passing. Losing a QB that was averaging 8 yards a carry puts your O in a different position. And returns your Oline to a more reasonable light.

There hasnt been a huge UT advantage for a long time now. Theor fans are delusional. Weve dropped games in inexplicable fashion, so sure, they can rub that in. But we and the rest of the SEC know they are absolute hot garbage.
