How bad are the Vols this year?
Saturday, September 13th, 2008I watched the Vols beat up on Central High - oops, I mean UAB - today 35 - 3. I also saw the highlights of the UCLA vs BYU game, where UCLA lost 59 to 0. That’s not a typo, the total points UCLA scored against BYU was zero. Zip. Nadda, Goose-egg.
Considering the fact that BYU is currently ranked 18th (just as the Vols were when they played UCLA) and that UCLA had 4 turnovers today (they also had 4 when they played the Vols) BYU is waaaay better than UT at this time. And I don’t think BYU is very good
I don’t think that says much for UT Football. To get beat by a team that loses it’s next game by 59 points is bad. Really bad. I thought the SEC was supposed to be the premier football conference? Looks to me like the PAC 10 and WAC are kicking some SEC butt.
And unless UT finds an offense floating down the river sometime in the next week, the game next week against Florida is gonna be ugly. Really ugly. Two bagger ugly.
It’ll be the kind of game that you switch off shortly after halftime when the score is something like 35 - 6. I hope that’s not the case, but I am not impressed with UT so far this year. Florida won’t be impressed either.
