Trying to decide whether to drop some coin on the Vols tomorrow getting the field goal+ . All things equal I would normally take the points all the way to the bank but we all know this aint been nowhere near normal this year. So what do you guys think about our motivation tomorrow (or lack thereof)?

I think this year's team really wants to go to a bowl game no matter how low the bowl is in the pecking order.

I'm not sure about the team at this point, it's anybody's guess IMO..... I, on the other hand am probably gonna come out flat. Everything that's been going on has just got me worn out...but that's probably not what you were wanting to know.

My expectations for this team have gone steadily down from week to week and they have consistently underperformed to my expectations each week. So I would say they come out flat and get beat

I wonder how hard of a ticket this will be. I will be driving down tomorrow without a ticket.

Hard ticket? It's Vanderbilt. That's all you need to know.

I dont know what to think.....I have been impressed how hard this team has faught and competed all year. I hope the flu and injuries have not finally been too much to over come. I do think our offense once again has to really get it done. 38-30 Vols?

They almost never sell out, and our fan base is depressed. I'm not a gambler, but my bet is you will get a reasonably priced ticket

As far as starting out, I'm sure we'll come out as flat as we have in pretty much every game. It's hard to see us stopping anyone so the points are really tough. Whether we win or lose it could easily be by a botched or blocked extra point.
