Everyone knows how I feel, for the most part, about all the early national title shot talk for the big orange. I love my vols, and would love to see them winning it all this year, but there is alot of "things" in our way.
Auburn- Tennessee heads to Auburn to play a re-kindled "UA" football team that started off the season, in all aspects, ending any hopes of making any kind of statement in the BCS. However; don't count Auburn out. After pummeling two unknown teams, they will be at home with the earthquake stadium backing them. Sadly even with all the fans in Auburn, they will not be able to subside the big orange roll.
Tennessee 28 Auburn 10
Georgia- The bulldogs come into Neyland hoping to re-establish their status amoung the powerhouses in the NCAA... With a solid victory last year they will be cocky, and rightfully so, but not so fast my friend. Georgia will fall short loosing late in the game to an aerial assault, and ground attack that will soon put the big orange offense at the top of the NCAA charts.
Tennessee 14 Georgia 10
Alabama- Alabama hasn't showed me too much this year, so I'm not sure about them.
Duke- Duke is sadly not capable of mounting a game against the Vol Scouting team... Enough said.
Miami- Hype, or hope? I'm thinking a little of both. The canes are well coached and have some of the best "younger" players in the nation. I think their depth will be the deciding factor in this game. Where they lost the majority of their stars, and I don't beleive they have the core to withstand a veteran team, equally well coached, and second team players that could easily start for any other college team in the country. I'm hoping for FSU to prove who Miami is this year, and I'll feel more confident in this prediction.
Tennessee 35 Miami 7
