Rising threat? Tennessee looks to cash in on ESPN GameDay exposure, get over Florida hump
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee football is roaring to life under Josh Heupel, ranked No. 11 with college football’s center stage heading to Rocky Top.

" Tennessee is a 10 1/2-point favorite over the Gators before a bye week will lead into a telltale four-game stretch of SEC games at LSU (Oct. 8) and against Alabama (Oct. 15) and Kentucky (Oct 29) and then at Georgia (Nov. 5). "
What a brutal slate of games! If they survive that with no more than one loss then I'd say they are probably as good as they think they are.
Yes, I've been thinking that TN was going to be our toughest opponent, but after seeing us play mop up duty on their schedule, the Vols may be so beat up and worn out that they cave easily against the Dawgs.
TN should get by Florida. Then they run the hazing gauntlet of other SEC rivals. Start strong...finish whipped, decimated. I agree, that TN will likely be injury ridden by the time they meet UGA. Brutal schedule.
At the end of this game, I want both teams to be beat up and exposed.
I know this isn't going to be popular, but I'm rooting for FU.
From what I watched of the TN / Pitt game, Tennessee didn't look so good, and Pittsburgh didn't look so good against WVU.
Not saying TN can't beat UGA, but all things being equal, they just don't have UGA's depth. The offense gimmick is getting figured out by DC's, and TN's defense doesn't seem up to a task like UGA's offense.
UT gonna smack the goobers all around Saturday! Too bad they both can't lose!
GO DAWGS!
I predict ex-UGA LB Brendon Cox will make Herndon Hooker's day extremely bad, while Gator QB, Anthony Richardson will run over the Vol Defense.....Gators win a squeaker 17 to 16.
Anthony Richardson is a turnover machine, despite the agreement between ESPN and the SEC Network to name him a future Heisman winner and top NFL pick. Rocky Top will be loud and given AR's inability to read a defense, he'll toss at least a couple of disastrous picks leading to an easy cover for the Vols.
Too much fire power in Knoxville. Florida's run game will shorten the game somewhat and may even keep them in the game for a half, but if Florida falls behind early and has to throw to get back in. It's going to get ****.
Wow, can't even say u g l y? Talk about censhorship.
About the comment about TN Vols having ever increasing NIL Deals. While that is probably true, Vols better Sure be Extremely careful as they are under a microscope with the SEC and NCAA !! Better make sure those NIL deals are squeaky clean !! I don’t know if one of the teams in the SEC will be first but just wait some school or schools plural are gonna get into deep trouble over the NIL deals !! It’s a situation just waiting for a place to happen !! And even though Dawgs have and are getting NIL deals to, I think ( sure Hope) that it’s some less likely to happen at UGA as I’m sure Kirby and his people are watching those like a hungry Dawg a fine steak !! Kirby is no fan of NIL even if he speaks politically correct on the subject.
If UT is scoring 50 plus a game, how exactly are they getting figured out?
