I personally don't expect Zac to play which is a pretty big blow to our offense. However, the team proved to themselves on Saturday that they can win, against a pretty solid OM team, without him. Conversely UT's D has gotten even weaker this week with a season ending injury to probably their best or at least most consistent defender Curt Maggitt. Interesting game our DBs have to play much better than last week for sure.

I'm cautiously optimistic. We really need for Rodgers to be sharp on Saturday, exactly unlike he was in this game last year.

I think there is a chance the UT players come in down given the way the Mizzou game turned out, their dwindling chances for a bowl game, and the uncertainty surrounding Dooley's future. It would help if there is less orange in the crowd than in years past...

After the way our defense played against Ole Miss, this has the makings of a shootout. I'm still confident Shoop can get our guys to get a few solid stops. The key for the game is in the trenches. UT's offensive line is tremendous. If we get pressure on Bray, then this game is ours. Just hope that Dooley guys don't play lights out for what has the makings of their coach's last game.

Offensively I think Vandy will be fine. This UT defense is awful! Rodgers will do just fine. The UT offense however is a different story. Getting pressure on Bray is hard to do so best thing to do is stay alert and bat balls down. That's happened to Bray a lot. Do that a few times and he gets frustrated and starts slinging everything downfield. It will be a good game for sure.

I originally thought that UT would win this one, but not after the performances that both have put on in the past two weeks. 8-4, here we come.

This should be a really good game, with a definite advantage to you guys. Regardless of who ends up starting on QB for you guys, if he has half a pulse he'll move the chains.

Good Luck

Thanks TRT! Hope you're right about it being a good game (and by my definition, that means the Good Guys win)!
