All right, now Alabama-Tennessee is a game that Dave and I agree on.
And I think these big games that Dave and I seem to agree on
seem to go pretty well for us.
So I'd love for that trend to continue.
Iowa-Michigan comes to mind.
I love Tennessee here.
I think George McIntyre is being shorted inaccurately.
I think Alabama is being boosted too heavily.
The Crimson Tide are the more injured team in this football game.
Alabama are off of this game against Georgia.
Their biggest so far,
of the season it is hard to go into Knoxville
and win man i think Tennessee can win this game
outright uh played a flat eight seven
and a half is good get this thing over a touchdown none of
it might matter though because i think the Vols
are super super alive in this spot i think you do
as well i do and i think this is just a tough spot
for Alabama you got the non-call last week
you lose the game versus Georgia
which was you know a number two versus number six in the country
and you have to turn around and go to Knoxville
and you're laying seven and a half eight points
at Tennessee. Not an easy place to win.
The advantage I give Tennessee is
literally in the trenches, on the ground.
Tennessee rush game. Averaging
228.3 yards per
game. Georgia rushed for 206
yards last week. Tennessee,
don't worry about the quarterback change because
you're just going to run the ball, run the ball, run
the ball. That's what Georgia did.
But in this case, we're getting 7.5
and 8 points. We're not playing money line here with
Tennessee.
