    RockyHill Loves Auburn more than Tennessee.

    It certainly wouldn't be shocking. Though it seems Butch will always do what pisses us off the most and that'll probably mean 9 wins and a second place finish in the East.

    My crystal ball says ---

    L - Ga Tech (in Atlanta)
    W - Indy State
    L - @Florida
    W - UMass
    L - UGA
    [bye week]
    W - Sakerlina
    L - @Bama
    W - @KY
    W - SuthernMiss
    W - @Mizzou
    L - LSU
    W - Vandy

    Looks like 7-5 to me, if my math is right.

    6-6 is VERY realistic since we've obviously proven that KY and Vandy are not gimme wins these days.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Vandy or USCe beat us.

    I'd be more surprised if we beat USCjr than if we lost. Muschamp is deep inside Baby Shoes' head.

    I'm not getting the GA Tech love. If for no other reason Shoop seems like a guy that will be pissed off and will have an entire offseason to get the guys ready to stop the option.

    Flip the Vandy game if Botch gets canned before that

    It's not their offense I'm worried about. I dont think Shoop gives them more than 14-17 points, but I dont have faith in our offense to score more than that. Especially not after the App State debacle this year.

    I'd assume he'd have been pissed after giving up 36 & 37 to Kentucky and Missouri, but then he turned around and gave up 45 to ****ing Vanderbilt. Shoop's defense was bordering on Sunseri level of bad during the last month of the season. It isn't a stretch to think that Georgia Tech will run it down our throats and make us like it.

    And Jones will be wound so tight he won't shit for a month.

    is florida really that bad?

    my thinking is just that we've lost too much hardware, corch [itch bay] gonna be wound tight around the axle, and it's in gainesville.

    Eh, not worried about it. Give him an offseason to get pissed off and fix it. Too good of a track record.

    He would shit it would just come out of his mouth. Come to think of it that's nothing new really.

    Also...
    And we'll be breaking in a new OC and a new QB.

    My bet is we lose 3 DL for the season because of GT.

    Getting a healthy McKenzie and Tuttle will help a lot too. Those are two guys that can dominate up front, especially against an option team like Tech.

    I don't give a flying **** what happens with the 2017 UT football team, or team 25643 or whatever other stupid as **** name the idiot head ****-stick in charge wants to call his ****ed up creation. Neither does the AD. Or the UT president. Or the boosters.

    **** it. Burn it down.

    I've got more heart in one pubic hair than our dip shit HC has in his entire family tree.
