For some reason the system is giving my simple brain lots of problems, but in case y'all can't tell by the byline, Ryno and I both wrote these notes.
Stupid system. Stupid me.
I blame the St. Louis Cardinals.

You're really smart.

Wish I felt confident about our chances against Vandy, but based on the last few games, I fear that Vandy is going to put a whoopin' on the Vols. Hope I am wrong.
If our offense is hot, then they probably cannot score with us. But if our D is as porous as ti has been, then anyone (see Troy) could keep up with us. Wow, that's why I don't like our chances. Vandy has been playing some good ball this year.
It's time for a change...

Who would have thought Vandy's record would be 6-4 & Tennessee's 4-6 coming into this game.

One big difference between this team and last year's team is the maturity. It's amazing how much more they're fighting every game and practicing through out the week seems to be very focused. Give credit where credit is due. It looks as if Kiffin has lost his team out in LA. Ha ha, good.
