Title: I see today's game as a win/win... Post by: Black Diamond Vol on January 02, 2015, 08:03:00 EST Even if we lose (and given our injuries, I kind of expect that we will), it doesn't really set us back. We're still on schedule for a big jump next year, and title contention the year after that. But if we win, it could propel us forward in a big way on the recruiting trail. Butch can point to most of our conference rivals losing their bowl games and spin it as us rapidly gaining ground. He can point to the youngest team in America achieving their first winning season in five years. And win OR lose, he's going to be able to point to our overwhelming homefield advantage in Jacksonville, while most of our rivals are struggling to sell their bowl tickets.
Bascially, I see today as less of a game, and more of a celebration of UT football. A 3-4 hour preview of what's on the horizon for this program. It's going to be a good day, no matter the result. :powert: Title: Re: I see today's game as a win/win...
