I'm not a Tennessee homer, at all, Clemson fan, I also love teams like Middle Tennessee State, Nevada, and others. But unless Tennessee has a major letdown vs. Tennessee or a rash of injuries leaving the game...they will not ony cover against FLA they will win the game. Granted it is in Gatorland and FLA has beaten Tenn 4 years in a row...and whippings the last 2 years. Thats one reason Tennessee will win...the JR and SR starters on this team have been crushed by FLA 2 straight years, no player other than a (RS) SR has beaten FLA, SO they will be highly motivated to win this game...add that to the motivation playing your rival, the #1 team, and the loved/hated Tim Tebow. Also This Tennessee team is talented, and as talented as any basically...they just haven't lived up to their ability. They played motivated last week although against an inferior opponent but unless they have a letdown or injury plagued game they will cover and beat FLA. The only thing else that could stop them maybe Kiffin...who scares Tennessee fans as much as he excites them. This will be his first big test, and if it ain't atleast close with all the mess he has talked he won't be off to a good start in Knoxville. You may think I'm crazy but FLA will have 2 easy games before Tenn and Tenn will atleast played 2 FBS teams and one being UCLA. Unless Tenn bows down and I don't think they will...They will shock and smack Florida in the 1st Half which will lead them to atleast cover and I think win the game. Now lets hope the media doesn't fall in love with the Vol's before hand.
