Tennessee's loss last week to Wyoming ranks up near the top when it comes to worst Volunteer losses during my lifetime. Of course, there was the shocking loss to Memphis in 1996, as well as the loss to Rutgers in '79 and North Texas State in '75. Just miserable.
However, the real lesson from this loss is that whoever winds up with the head coaching job is faced with a long-term rebuilding project. The offense is just pathetic, and the defense will lose a lot of talent heading into next season.
I don't care if we get Butch Davis or whoever, it will take a lot of time to turn things around. I just hope the fan base will be patient (I think we know the answer to that).
SEC picks: Georgia over Auburn, Florida over South Carolina, Kentucky over Vanderbilt, Alabama over Mississippi State, Ole Miss over Lousiana-Monroe, LSU over Troy
Last week: 4-2 (.667), Overall: 59-19 (.756)

it will be a bad scene if Vandy becomes bowl eligible by beating UT.
"it will be a bad scene if Vandy becomes bowl eligible by beating UT."
If UT plays like they did against Wyoming, that's exactly what's gonna happen. Better get your tissues ready.
As for the bowl eligibility thing, at least that part is out of the equation. Congratulations to Vanderbilt for beating Kentucky and becoming bowl eligible. I'll have more thoughts later in the week regarding what bowl I believe they will go to.
