So it makes everything all better? We will see. We've made another potentially great season into a average one. Should be 6-0. Can't make excuses for it. If he beats Bama I will still give him a mulligan for those 3 losses. I don't think UGa is nowhere as good as us and UGa fans thought. But it doesn't matter.They came back from a big deficit and won. Can't beat that. It is what this team needed.
Well, first, you missed the point. You suggested earlier in the week that it was nuts for fans to predict a win over UGA. I was just reminding you that it wasn't far-fetched at all.
But to answer your question: Yes, for tonight it does make everything all better. I said earlier in the week that a win over UGA wouldn't make up for the three losses (only a win over Alabama will do that), but it would stop the bleeding and give Butch Jones and his staff an opportunity to regroup. It comes at the perfect time, with an off-week for the fanbase to enjoy it and allow the team an opportunity to get better before the trip to Tuscaloosa. Can UT beat Alabama? Probably not. But even if that game is a loss, the Vols can win out and finish at 8-4. Jones will have met most people's expectations, and he'll have one of those 50/50 wins on his resume. The monkey will be off his back. Tonight's game doesn't mean Butch will be at Tennessee beyond 2016, but we aren't going to spend this weekend debating his future as a fan base, and that's a good thing.
