I mean this is always a fun one. Bonus points if you’re brave enough for score projections. I’ll start for Tennessee.

Florida, Texas A&M, and Alabama are my swing games. Florida looks like a favorable match up for us as it stands, but having grown up through the early 2000’s I just know that uf has some of that swamp magic. ATM is just a massive question mark for everyone from every perspective right now, certainly glad they play Alabama the week before they play us. Unfortunately we play Alabama in ttown the next week. Speaking of if there are any other vols reading this please help me flood Danny White’s inbox with requests to return TSIO to a color clash game by wearing orange in Tuscaloosa this year. If that game looks good, or if we even pull out a win, we can start talking about the UGA game. Until then let’s take this one game at a time. Overall I’ve got us going 10-2 with 8-4 being the absolute worst case for us to still have a ‘decent’ season. Also shout out to the scar game, I bet that one’s going to be a barn burner.
The way Iowa has survived on suffocating defense with absolutely zero offense has been fun to watch from the outside!
I’m ready for them to move past this phase… “fun to watch” is only true when used in this case, as a turn of phrase. Actually watching this team, week after week last year was the definition of masochism.
Oh I’m sure it’s absolute torture as a fan. I understand it is a lot to pay with a guy in Ferentz that has been there 25 years, but there comes a time when you have to move on.
