Yep, makes me sick to type this, but I honestly think UT beats them. They have the best offense I've seen all year. Bama seems to be good obviously, but probably not a great Bama team. UT to me has looked the more dangerous team so far this year.

I hate to feel this way, I really do. I see UT competing for a playoff spot unfortunately. I think they're that good. I hope I'm wrong

Morg come tell me how I'm wrong

Also think PSU upsets Michigan today

I’ve seen this movie before unfortunately, but I’m already locked in at +9.5 for Tennessee. Rarely bet on Mondays. Just when you know Alabama is gonna lose Saban pulls a rabbit outta his butt. Same thing with Mike Leach tonight with UK. Everything tells you MSU should easily cover 3.5 but then his teams drop a turd.

Ohio State has a better offense. Ohio State might be the best team in the country and I hate to say that. Of course, they also could have not actually been tested. I guess we will see.

Depends on how healthy BY is. Bama has far more talent starting, and in its depth. Bama does have a weakness in its secondary which UT can exploit. UT did just that last season, but Tillman, who had 200 yds receiving in that game, is being held out of the game, so UT's other receivers will need to pick up the slack. Bama will likely play its safeties deep to help their CBs on the vertical throws, so it will be critical for the UT running game to exploit fewer bodies in the box, maybe force Bama to walk at least one of those safeties up.

But BY's health is the x-factor. If he is anywhere near 100%, Bama will be extremely tough to beat.

Georgia is beating Tennessee, Georgia is still Georgia, that defense and Bennett are good enough

Bennet's said to have a bad shoulder, Young with a bad shoulder. TN's made a deal with the Devil no question. Today vs Bama is TN's third game this year vs a team with a gimpy QB. And you can bet whoever finishes off young will make a lot of money with TN's bounty system.

They might win today, but the Georgia game is in Athens and Georgia is still better than Tennessee

I expect early emotion from the Vols, but Bama grinds them down. If Young plays and plays well, Bama walks away late.

I actually think Bama can beat UT with their second stringer, who I think is pretty good. Milroe.

He is certainly a good QB and he got his feet wet for a full game last week, so if he plays he should be more comfortable. But at the same time, that game was in Bryant-Denny. The noise in Neyland will be something he has not experienced, which could give him problems. Plus I would expect to see a lot of movement in the UT front 7, so will he be able to re-adjust his offense to UT shifting after he sets Bama's offense? He also was a fumble machine. He will definitely have to do a better job of protecting the ball than last week as the UT offense is better equiped to exploit those mistakes.

Agree. Bama is more complete on both sides of the ball. UTs offense is better but their defense gives up points like it’s cool. Bama wins by 13 (with BY)
 
Oklahoma blowing out Kansas. It's Oklahoma's worst team in years, Kansas has their best team in years. And they are still blowing them out. Ouch. Kansas scored it's now 35-21.

I like Vols chances this season, but think Tide may pull it off. Nevertheless,

Alabama doesn’t have to have a great team to beat Tennessee, I think Bama gets it done, Pitt should have beaten Tennessee. Tennessee hasn’t faced a defense like the one they will today and their defense isn’t all that impressive, Bama wins today.

To beat TN people gotta knock the horseshoe out of their ass. 3 games now they've gone up against teams with injured QBs with a limping Levis and a bum shouldered Bennett in from of them. Deal with the Devil I tell you.
