    I'm already anxious about it.

    By a touchdown. Maybe ten points.

    We can. I don't know if we will but we definitely can. They can't defend all aspects of our passing game if they can't get to Dobbs. We protect Dobbs, stop their running game, and don't turn the ball over we should win.

    I think it's a 10 point game either way

    It's more a matter of if Dobbs can evade the pressure. He won't be protected.

    The playcalling has helped slow down the rush as well.

    Yes. Mauk is terrible in SEC play.

    I never thought I would say this in 2014 but there's no way Missouri can keep up with Tennessee if this turns into a back and forth offensive barn burner.

    I think Georgia is the only team that can in the east.

    Mizzou sucks. That program is holding on for dear life right now. I'm not exactly sure how they're doing it, it's an arms race in the SEC and they bringing up the rear with the likes of Vandy, you got to think that it will take hold eventually.

    The East being a clogged toilet the last two years has certainly made them appear better than they really are.

    Regardless of perceptions, the reality is that they're on the cusp of winning the SEC East for the second year in a row--in their third year in SEC. To compare them to VU is a bit asinine, IMO. Are they trending upward? Meh...maybe not, but they're far from a pushover.

    Mizzou just strikes me as a team that inexplicably causes fits for whoever they play; playing up or down to their level of competition. That's makes for a dangerous opponent, any way you slice it, IMO.


    I think we can win, but I won't be surprised if we don't, either. Which sucks...

    I was talking about recruiting when comparing them to the likes of Vandy. The East has been horrible, they've been the tallest midget, that run won't last forever.

    Third year in the SEC, for what it's worth.
