Tennessee vs. Florida - A Fearless Prediction
Submitted by Mark Nagi on September 16, 2009 - 9:19pm
The first game I ever saw inside Neyland Stadium was back in 1994. The Vols hosted top-ranked Florida.
The Gators were sooooo much better than the Vols on that day. 31-0 was the final... and it could have been worse.
I feel the same way about what's going to happen in Gainesville this coming Saturday.
Emotion plays into college football, so I'm sure Tennessee will have a lot of that "us against the world" thing going on when they hit "The Swamp."
The Vols want to have Lane Kiffin's back, after the new Tennessee coach took aim at Urban Meyer from the very moment he replaced Phillip Fulmer.
It says something about Kiffin's confidence, that he's not afraid to stand up to the bullies of the SEC.
However, right now Kiffin is bringing a slingshot to a gun fight.
Prediction: Florida 38-Tennessee 7. Yes, UT scores. Eric Berry will return a Tim Tebow pass 80 yards for a touchdown.
Oh, and if Brandon James returns yet another kick for a touchdown against the Vols... Tennessee should just walk off the field... and quite possibly disband the program.

I disagree
Stanford-USC during the 2007 (I think), Standford pulls off one of the biggest upsets of the year (if not the biggest). Last year, If I'm not mistaken Ole Miss upset Florida. I'm telling you, our defense is great. Our offense COULD be great. If we come out firing on all cylinders and play 4 quarters of hard nosed Tennessee football, then my friend I do believe an upset of the CENTURY is en route. And even if we don't wain, I predict a MUCH closer game than the world suspects.
