Well, it's home sweet home this week for the Big Orange....thank goodness! I've a gut feeling it's NOT such a bad thing the Dawgs are ranked ahead of the Vols in the current polls, and that most "experts" picked UGa to win the division in the preseason. It sure takes a good bit of pressure off of Smokey's guys, and the Vols just may show up for this game, ready to avenge the embarrassing losses the past 2 years.
Now, if ANYONE has a home potion of sorts to get both the offense and the defense to lay off of the penalties, Tennessee has a GOOD chance to win. If it's a repeat of what happened on "The Plains" last week, it will be a long night.
Hey, take heart! EVERY game this year, thus far, has been broadcast via a major network, be it CBS, ESPN, or this week, ESPN2. What a terrific boost to recruiting efforts! How do you think we get kids from the West Coast to migrate to the Smokies for SEC football?
GO BIG ORANGE!!!

You could be right. After the loss to Auburn, there's little or no pressure left on the Vols to hunt down a National Championship or to keep a perfect record. This could actually work in our favor.

Now we can go out and just play.

I totally agree that the Vols have no pressure this weekend when they play georgia. I really feel that the vols are gonna go out and play and beat the bulldogs. I guess we will see on sat. though if this is the case.

Watch out Dawgs, you are facing and inferior team that knows how to not only take a sound beating, but will enjoy doing so for the people of Tennessee. I know you guys think that the VOLS are suppose to win the National Championship every season and you all start out the year with people saying things like Tennessee and Michigan will be in the Sugar bowl for the National Championship, but it is not happening is boys. Hey, it is about time Georgia had something to look back on besided the Hershal years. Don't worry, in time Tennessee will recover and have something to look back on beside the Manning days.

Good points GManDawgs, espcially that one about not having anything to look back on since the Mannning days. Man, did we ever crash & burn the moment he left UT. And who would have thought we would have had such a bad record that first year after he left!

Yeah, nothing but misery & sorrow since Manning left.

You Georgia football fans do know a thing or 9 about misery & sorrow, don't you?
