UT has no players on the preseason coaches' All-SEC 1st team, 2nd team or 3rd team. Malik Jackson is on 1st team defense and Prentice Waggner is 3rd team defense, making Tennessee the least-represented team in the conference.

Good. I'm glad the rest of the league is overlooking this team.

Well we are a very young team and it is the "in" thing to hate on UT so let them have their fun. Sports writers have a herd mentality anyway. If the more established guys say something the rest just parrot it. I really don't care personally. I just hope the team exceeds what is expected. 

A slight like that could galvanize the team for the rest of the summer and throughout the year. It could also make them play with a passion not seen around here in awhile.

I just can't shake my feeling that we are severely underrated.

That scares me to be honest.

Vol fans know what we got. The rest of the country doesn't. We're going to be a huge surprise to all.

I assume the first part means "on offense".  I am pretty surprised at that.  I think we have an OL or two that should at least be third team.

Being underrated is a VERY good thing.  Let em!
