We could win by 20 or lose by 10 or do what we do when it counts which is what this line is suggesting

I don't know what's more embarrassing, the fact that we open as underdogs to Vandy or the fact that we should probably be surprised it is not a wider spread.

I had it guessed at 3.5 or so. I just don't see us winning this game, sadly, unless something unforseen happens. We have more talent, yes, but we'll be uninspired, while they'll be fired up.

Makes me sick that Franklin may get his revenge for the locker room video...

Yep.....we will find out how much these guys want to send Dooley out right and if the team wants to go to a bowl game and represent UT. They have competed all year......got to continue.

I thought that I would never see the day that we are underdogs to candy. It may have happened before I just don't remember seeing it.

Video should never leak out of a locker room but even Fulmer teams sang that song....I am sure Dooley didnt want it filmed but there is nothing wrong with celebrating and esp when its been a brutal year(s)

No Maggit is going to hurt this defense a lot. I like Vandy by 10

I agree about maggit going to hurt the defense but nobody besides bama has stopped this offense and vandy gave up 26 to old miss and our offense is ten times better than ole miss

Bumping this, my site has Vandy as 4 1/2 point favorites. Money in Vegas in pouring in on the Commodores.
