Anything can happen; people said SC didn't have a shot in '10. Sometimes all it takes is a defense giving up a couple of plays, a turnover here and there and an opposing team playing above their heads.

With that said, UT is still 0-13 against ranked teams, and Bray loses his shite if he gets hit a few times. I see Adrian Hubbard in his face for most of the night.

Alabama will load up, pin their ears back, and be in Tyler Brays house all night long. Sure, he may get a couple deep balls on us (if Patterson can catch the fricking ball), but it won't be nearly enough. Tennessee's defense is laughable. Alabama's offense is methodical. By the fourth quarter, AJ McCarron will be chillin' on the sideline scoping out cheerleaders again. Bama big.......Once again.....

Translation: "please watch this game, it will be better than you think".

All ESPN does is try to make shitty games appear better than they are. :ratings:

Say what ya want, but UT can still light it up on offense. Bama gets sloppy with the ball and Braysus gets in a zone - who knows?

Of course, it's possible - about a 5% chance of UT's best game intersecting with Bama's worst. Look at the history of the SEC. In almost all of Alabama, Auburn and Tennessee's one loss seasons, the perfectos were ruined by one of the other two.

Possible. Not probable, in fact it is highly unlikely. But our bus could careen off a cliff too. Theoretically we would have to forfeit.

We have the worst defense in the SEC and they have the best offense in the SEC. Take Bama and the points this will get ugly.

If bama somehow turns it over 5+ times there is a chance. Otherwise, not a chance in hell. I mean ZERO

I said it last week, and I will say it again, Tennessee will beat Bama AND S Carolina. Get the big head if you want, but Tennessee at home against Bama is a much better matchup than you may think. Look for Bray to torch your secondary, especially on blitz packages. Their o line will hold your d line way better than you think Bama fans. I have watched both teams, and I have no dog in this fight, just calling it like I see this playing out.

if they do the fanning suplex on aj early, then it could be very interesting.

This is where I am at too. Just too much firepower on Bamas side. Bray will not be on the field long. I am thinking quite a few three and outs.
