    Whaddya think?

    The betting guy on 610 this morning said the wrong team is favored and the Vols would win straight up.

    I'm afraid that the D can't stop anybody, let alone Florida. But I haven't seen Florida play this year. Have you?

    All I know is TN better win or there might be riots.

    I don't think they will.

    I don't see how anyone can rationally say that Tennessee should be favored on the road vs the #5 team in the country. Not with the defense we have trotted out the first two weeks.

    Is either Western Kentucky or Troy strong enough teams to legitimately tell if they are a top 5 team? No.

    But Tebows productivy scares me. He's averaged 300 combined yards passing and rushing in his first two games, completing passes long and short.

    If it were in Knoxville, that would be one thing. But its not. We let them off the hook last year.

    If we can withstand the early storm, we may have a shot. We can score. But I'm afraid of another Cal like game.

    If they got their asses spanked in Berkley, what's gonna happen in the Swamp?

    TN fan is not all that happy with their program over the last several years. Fulmer could be considered as on the bubble by some.

    florida is FAST and meyer's system opens holes. the way to beat his system is to have a quick, disciplined, sure-tackling defense. if you've got that, then you'll be in the fight. or, just have some beasts on the d-line that blow everything up in the backfield.

    Tennessee has looked like crap its first two games, and they are missing their starting corner. Their other corner is a true freshman. Also, Florida hasn't played anyone. They have been gearing up for this game ALL spring and summer. Tennessee was gearing up for Cal all spring and summer. I don't think it's gonna be that close.

    Florida is WAY overrated. I think UT has a hell of a shot at the upset.

    This is my fear, except that I think Florida could close it out and not let the Vols back in the game late like Cal did.

    I'm thinkin 34-19. UF. We'll be down by 10 at half, then down 20ish late, before a meaningless score or two in the closing minutes.
