UTe is developing the requisite combination of talent and experience. On any given Saturday, with both teams rested and relatively injury free, they can beat anybody.
What a lot of fans and talking heads lose track of, however, is that the SEC is God's own grind. No one game is all that debilitating. It's the mental and physical erosion that takes place over an eight-game schedule. Especially in the SECw, it's just brutal.
In 2016, UTe plays a murderer's row of Florida (home), UGA (road), aTm (road), then us in Knoxville.
