LOL. Whenever I saw 11-2, I couldn't help but laughing extremely loud. I doubt they get close to that, but you never know.
If they don't get there it won't be because they are short on talent. I hate Tennessee as much as the next guy, but lets not forget that fat Phil had one of the highest win % in the country going into last year. Plus the team is loaded with high school all americans. I think last year was a fluke. Tenn challenges Florida and UGA for the east this year.
UT winning the East in 2006 wouldn't really shock me to be honest. Neither UF or UGA are really that far ahead of them
You are waaaayyyy too high on the convictions. If you have noticed, they only get arrested, but never convicted.
With Ainge at qb and a couple of early defection to draft on top of the seniors they already lose, I could easily see them losing 3 conference games with a schedule that includes tough foes(UF, UGA, USC, LSU & Bama). Not sure what their OOC schedule looks like, but I think I'm gonna go with winner of the world's largest cocktail party winning the East.
Visiting UT fan here-just about fell out at the 11-2, until I saw what you were talking about. Hope that we don't have the embarrassing off season again. Out of conference games are California, Air Force, Marshall and at Memphis. Not exactly a world beater of a schedule. With how this season played out, I would be happy with 9-3. We should not beat LSU, and Florida, Alabama and Georgia always scare me. If we can get one of those, and win the games we are supposed to, maybe I won't jump off of the ledge that they put me on last year. Would love to expect more, but when you lose the state championship to Vandy, your goals can't be too high for the next year. LEE
