they are on sc cuz they are suckers. they match up evenly on paper, but the vols own them for the last 10 years. they always play us and everyone else close, but can't ever close the deal with the vols
Last year (Nov 15, 03), TENN (-22) -24 vs Miss State
Final: TENN, 59-21
TENN was entering the game with a 3 game win streak and Miss State had a 3 game losing streak getting blasted by Alabama, 38-0 in their most recent effort.
Probably the same people all over Texas Tech last week. SC is a solid team defensively but has a very erratic offense. Tennessee is talented but very young. Williams-Brice is a tough environment to play but UT has gotten the job done at Georgia already this year.
Sc has faltered a bit since the QB's have been nicked up. Holtz will be extra conservative and play this one close to the vest. I think UT has enough to get the job done in this spot.
