Which Tennessee team is better? Vandy or UT Vols

OK, how 'bout which Tennessee team's defense is better, UcheaT or Austin Peay?
Yup.
With an adequate coaching staff, Tennessee has the talent to be a significantly better team but, with Botch at the helm, you've got to give the edge to Vandy right now.
Just kidding. Tennessee's waaaaay better; they're on the verge of contending for a National Championship. They'd be foolish to ever let Jones get away.
I think any team with a top notch defense is more of a threat -- and it's not like Tennessee was setting the world on fire with their offense on Saturday. Vandy could honestly finish 3rd in the SEC East.
That sounds so weird but I could honestly see the SEC East stacking up like this:
1. Georgia
2. Florida
3. Vandy
4. Tennessee
5. Kentucky
6. South Carolina
7. Missouri
...and spaces four through six might be interchangeable.
We will know a lot about Kentucky this weekend. Can they finally break through? I think Georgia is the clear cut leader but after that it's mush.
Too early to tell, but at this point it looks like Botch is going to fall to 2-3 against Vandy...
Hope they keep him forever!
Hope they keep him forever!
I'm not 100 percent sold on Vanderbilt.
They played against MTSU. The MTSU beat Syracuse 30-23, and then lost Minnsota 34-3.
Then they played AAMU, which has been outscored 125-7 in the last 3 games. AAMU played UAB, Vandy and USA.
Big test was against Kansas State in which they won 14-7. Am I convinced? No. Kansas QB, Jesse Ertz has regressed in the last three game, going from throwing 4 TDs to 2 Ints. I seriously doubt he will improve a lot this year, so his play played a huge role in Vandy's win. If that had been any other decent QB, I think Vandy loses this game.
Is Kyle Shurmur good? Yes, but we have to remember that he played against MSTU, AAMu and Kansas State. So of course, his number would look lot better. Real test is when he is playing against a legit defense like Bama.
Ralph Webb- Running game is terrible. Averaging 2.2 yards? Ya'll said he was good, but he's ... I don't know. He will struggle against us.

Right now I'd say Vanderbilt. Their D is better over all and their quarterback is efficient, does what they ask, and they do well at not asking him to do too much.
By the time they play each other, that may not be so. Vandy has been pretty good across the starting 22 for several years. However, towards the end of the season the lack of depth and the talent difference between their 1s, 2s and 3s hurts them. I've not really paid enough attention to know if that is the case this year.

I'm betting Memphis would be favored over vandy or tennessee if they played next week.
Yep that's Riley Ferguson. He started his career at Tennessee in Botch's 1st two years. They went with Josh Dobbs instead. Hope Botch is there FOREVER!!!! HAHAHahaha
