Game-by-game predictions (%) for your team

(Here's mine)

I haven't had a chance to check out the different preview magazines, but I'd imagine that Tennessee would be somewhere between 11-14 in all of the different position unit rankings, save maybe linebacker. Last year's Tennessee roster will look like the '86 Bears compared to this year's crew. If you're honestly counting on a bunch of true freshmen to be difference makers in the SEC, you've already lost. Hold a press conference and cancel the season, because you're screwed. Maybe 1 or 2 true freshmen at the absolute most. But more than that and your team is dead on arrival.

The false hope surrounding Tennessee this season and the "these guys are young but they are hungry and have been waiting in the wings" rhetoric is nothing new in college football. And it's not cool. It always leads to "oh shite!!!..,we suck bad this year!!!" once the season starts. Just ask Georgia fans about all of the "young and hungry" BS talk surrounding the defense last spring and summer.

Tennessee will be in an epic pillow fight with Kentucky all season for the precious and coveted13th spot in the SEC. I grew up in the 90s. Tennessee was the most physical and intimidating program in the country. Now they're a bunch of undisciplined excitable cock roaches running around in every direction. Second-rate talent with second-rate brains.

Never thought that I'd see the day. But that is what makes college football so interesting.
