Is Tennessee setting a trap for Bama?

[2Stater]

I'm be more worried that the Tennessee players might break into apartments, cars, and lockers while in Tuscaloosa than commit an upset.   

 

Let's just hope they don't steal the game.

If we can't beat Tennessee, then nothing else matters.  I'm going to enjoy watching it; no need to worry unless you've hitched your wagon to a shutout.

My biggest worry going into this game is complacency.  This season Bama has beaten all opponents by a combined score of 285-68.  Throw out the aTm game and it is an obsene 239-26.  Bama has won by an average of almost 41 - 10. Throw out the aTm game and the closest any team came to upsetting Bama was Colorado State and Ole Miss, both losing by 25 points each.  I am just afraid that our players will come in over-confident at some point and have their butt pads shown to them.

Hopefully Coach Saban and Co. can/will keep them well grounded and not take anything or anyone for granted and they will play their best regardless of who they are or what their record may be...

I'm imagining a solid 20-30 point win.  Anything is possible, but this season is nothing like 2009.  That team didn't have the depth that this team has.  That team was playing its 8th consecutive game.  That team was struggling, this team seems to be getting better every week.  That team was not resting the starters because they were struggling, this team has had opportunities to rest the starters. 

I expect it to stay close in the first half, but see Bama wear them down in the second. 

This! 39-10
But, I do wonder how much we will miss VS

What will be annoying is that Oregon ran the score up on TN, 59-14, and will be all over it if Bama doesn't do the same.

But I don't think this game will be close.  TN is coming off a big win for their program, and I don't see them getting up for a second big game, especially after Bama puts them in their place in the first 15 minutes.

Butch Jones inheritated a mess at UT. After a slow start to the season they are improving each week. They will be riding high after their big win last week. UT is a dangerous team that if we do not play well could give us some trouble.

Their win last week got our attention. There should be no looking ahead to LSU since we have a bye next week. I expect us to play well and UT will struggle on the road. UT will fight hard but I think we are too big, fast and talanted for them at this point in their rebuilding process.

I don't know if we cover the spread but I look for a win with us dominating late in the game.

I was impressed with Butch Jones during the SEC media days.

Exactly right. Good improvement after each game. That's called coaching.

someone told me they are hearing "rocky top" blasting from the weight room

I sure hope so

I have spoken to several neighbors around Heflin, that Coach Butch Jones was going to do a lot better than most think. I was told, well he followed other coaches who had good recruits, well maybe so, but it takes good coaching to continue to win. Gene what's his name had Tommy Tuberville recruits and won a national title. Aft this what Happen? JMHO. RTR!

I would like to thank the vols Corey Miller for breaking rule #1
... re: smack talk


rule #1
 :one thing we've learned about Bama:
its best if opposing players don't talk smack during game week.
it makes CJ Mosley and company angry & goose eggs happen..

Sadly, I remember all of those (except the loss).

By the time they beat us, you can add "there were no flying cars".
