Tennesee over/under 7.5

They lost their two best d linemen and Randy Shannon

 

I'm interested in seeing how Smith (coaching and recruiting) performs

Tennessee, 7.5 wins (over -140, under +100)

It's easy to see why there's so much excitement surrounding the Vols -- Josh Dobbs has finally settled things at quarterback, the secondary is airtight, what was a desperately young team the past two seasons is now brimming with experience. Nonetheless, it might be worthwhile to tap the brakes on a team that was one near-miraculous comeback at South Carolina away from missing a bowl game entirely. Home games vs. three pieces of nonconference cannon fodder, Vanderbilt and even South Carolina should be wins, and after their 2014 bludgeoning of the Wildcats, a visit to Lexington could make six. But from there, the Vols would need two wins from home games vs. Oklahoma, Arkansas and Georgia and roadies at Florida, Alabama and Missouri. Doable? Absolutely. But with the better payout on the under, the not-at-all-confident pick is UNDER 7.5 WINS.

 

That hurt my feelings

 

I actually listen to the guys podcast and he's pretty bright, but I get the general impression he mostly follows the big 10. he and his cohost seem to know almost nothing about the pac-12 and sec (outside of bama).

 

Truth hurts sometimes

 

We are Spurrier losing his mind and a miracle comeback away from butch being on a very hot seat right now. Amazing really.

 

And we are a Pig fumble and a stupid-ass Worley INT from everybody drinking the Kool-aid.

Butch is still walking a fine line between winning big and flaming out. This year and next will be really interesting.

 

I think that will always be the case with butch.

 

Bout lost to Vandy as well.

 

Hot seat? This **** sucker signed an extension.

 

What's another buyout? We're "deep pockets" Tennessee

 

If we're counting close/improbable wins against Butch, we need to consider close/improbable losses too. Let's just stick to evaluating a team by wins and losses. We were 7-6.

 

I promise we're not close to everyone drinking the kool aid.

 

Yup.

 

Yep, there's 2 ways to look at it.

I have my doubts on Butch, but I don't wish death on him like I do [ddiapos]

 

He loses to South Carolina last season, he's in job saving mode this year

 

Not yet anyway.

 

We have one loss he probably had no business being in the game anyway.

Two wins on spurrier.

Two close losses that should have never been close to losses anyway.

I'll agree that his overall record is a good summary of the first two years, it's just amazing how close the entire thing is from being a colossal mess instead of the average fan being all in.

 

at least you can't say Butch is a sorry SOB who doesn't give a damn. It's not enough to keep your job if you don't get it done, but it's something
