Well, as far as NT hopes, we're almost at the mercy of the voters... and I think we know how far that will get us..
It's the hurricanes... I don't live in Louisiana any more, but the destruction I see in the two communities in which I lived (New Orleans and Lake Charles) are heartbreaking. It's hard to feel much worse, I think. Well, I guess if I had lost my house or a loved one, that would be worse, obviously, but those things lend a lot of perspective.
I wouldn't feel so terrified had Tennessee won by some fluke play, ala Iowa at the Cap One Bowl, but for our head coach to be so far outdone by the opposing coach is the essential point here. That's what scares me. And guess what, you got 7 more of these SEC games to go big boy....it doesn't get much easier from here on out.
