I caught the end of the UT football preview on SEC network earlier tonight, and McElroy and some other guy predicted UT to go 10-2 with the only loses to uga and Bama. I literally laughed out loud. I think 7-5 is much more likely for them. How are all these morons on ESPN getting jobs as analysts?

They've had a terrible off season. I don't see them getting past Oklahoma. Too be honest , I'm more worried about Kentucky.

7-6 as usual and Butch is on the hotseat.

Seems like they've been predicted to win 10 for a long time now...... I've got them 8-4 on the year. Slight improvement, not a whole lot. Dobbs is overrated, and once he comes to Gainesville you'll see

Could be a real Waterloo moment for them. They get Oklahoma at home. Everybody has been building ut up. On paper ut may have a more talented roster. According to all the experts, they have the more talented qb. If ut loses that game, it's going to be a rough season.

Edit: I just looked at their schedule. That Oklahoma game is more of a Waterloo than I imagined. After it they have Western Carolina (whatever). Then they have UF, arkansas at home, georgia at home, open date, alabama away. Losing to oklahoma and then to us could set them on a really twisted downward spiral. Could really seem being 3-4 or even 2-5 if they don't get some positive momentum out of that game.

Oklahoma,arky,uga and us are probably all losses for them. Not to mention Alabama. No way they go10-2.

Have you ever seen a coach with more gimmicky crap than Butch? The guy runs around practice screaming in to a microphone which is heard throughout the stadium, he's trying to coordinate some cheesy chant that he wants the fans to do after every first down. He refers to his teams by a number, "team 115, or team 118" whatever the hell it is.

After this year's 5-6 losses, maybe they'll finally figure out he's an average coach with a very average history. And then the Vols will win another offseason national title and we'll hear how 2016 is really their year.

Wow...the hicks will be calling for Bitch Jones head when they're 1-5....That's a brutal schedule if I've ever seen one.

Similar to last year, he'll win 4 out of their last 5 against Vandy, UK and a couple of directional schools. Then they'll be saying how poised they are for a great run in 2016...for like the 10th year in a row.
