before we declare them all Heisman candidates, let's wait until they play an SEC defense or two

Gotta have good QB and WR play against the lesser teams before they can be good against SEC teams.  Ya'lls schedule is really great this year. Opening against a weak team in Montana. Then playing a better team in Cincy. Then against Florida. A chance to get some confidence for your team going into this weekend. 


Title: Well said......btw when are you guys gonna have a close game...lol

I don't think anybody has anointed any of them Heisman candidates yet, but what they've done in the first two games is better than anything we've had through the air since Peyton / Peerless / Wilson / Nash. They could crash and burn this week though for sure.

I'm confident the Heisman will be awarded in a 4-way tie between Bray, Hunter, Rogers, and Manning (they finally sorta fix the gaffe they made against Peyton).

Hear, hear!  Well said.  They will "treat it as a home game, and play pitch and catch"   :bowrofl: :beer: :powert: :patriot:

With UF starting 2 FR in the backfield, the UT Receivers could have a big game this weeekend. It worries most UF fans.

I'd just like to see us go for it for once in this series.  For too many years we played scared and cautious and it showed.  I think that mentality will change with Dooley.. I hope it shows in our offensive gameplan.

Those guys pretty much insure that we will NOT be running the toss sweep with the game on the line, so that alone makes me giddy.

I don't have to do that. I'm just a fan. I can get giddy and crazy and braggy and stuff like Tennessee fans have always done. If we lose, I just go back to square one and start all over again.   :biggrin:  Go, you dang Vols!  :powert:  :clap:  :powert:  :clap:

Sorry, you just made me flashback, Apocalypse Now style.    :dielaughing:

Dooley has made it clear that it has changed, both with his preaseason comments and also with how the first couple of games have been called.
