One of these days I’m going to sit down and do a study on our win/loss record following byes. On memory, it’s my belief byes are not our friend. For most teams it’s a break to regroup, heal, and strategize. For Tennessee, I may be wrong but I think we lose our edge. We come out looking lethargic, careless if memory serves.
Just off the top of my head, we came off a bye week in Pruitts first year when we beat AU, and had gotten curbstomped the game before by UGA.
He did last year, we'll see. I don't have much faith in Guarantano or the defense covering the middle of the field. But Jimbo is going to Jimbo, Arkansas has played in losses, Vanderbilt is awful, Auburn has sucked until they played LSU and UF ends the year here.
He switches quarterbacks and goes 4-1, I think I'll be pissed he didn't do it earlier, but I get why Bailey didn't get to start out of the gate.
If this is going to be viewed as a throw away year, then JG doesn't need to play another snap, but I know, we're beating a dead horse here.
Depends on what’s actually happening in the locker room. I’d still personally rather watch Maurer and HB play even if we didn’t win another this year.
Pruitt brought in Chryst to replace JG, he sucked too. Maurer passed JG, then broke his brain. Pruitt recruits a 4/5 star early enrollee, a pandemic shuts down spring practice and causes 44 players to miss parts of fall camp. Guarantano has had an unbelievable run of extenuating circumstances keeping him under center
