MAXIMIZE YOUR EDGE
TENN played alot of young kids last year and should be alot better for it.If TENN doesn’t win 8 games this year DOOLEY better watch out.He’s got talent he better start doing something with it.
Agreed. I am starting to become a little skeptical as to Dooley’s coaching abilities. However, he was handed a really bad situation at Tennessee, so I will give him another year before passing judgement.
I like Tennessee over 7.5 wins +130
Tennessee has 21 returning starters including special teams. 10 on Off, 9 Def, 2 SP. Last year they were 5-7 but drew ALA, LSU, Ark from SEC west. This year they only draw ALA from the SEC west’s top tier. Last year the OL had 3 SO and a Frosh starting. This year the whole unit returns and they have 105 career starts between them, which is third most in the nation. Four of the five were highly rated recruits out of high school so the talent is there. The WR group only losses Arnett 21 catches for 242 yards and he will be replaces by a 5* JC WR who has impressed early on in practice. Brey missed 5 games due to injury and should have a break out year (LY 1983 yards 60% 17 TD 6 INT). The OL will be better (only allowed 18 sacks LY) and he has some electrifying playmakers at WR (Rogers 6’3 210 4.4 speed 1000 yard receiver LY). The rushing numbers can only improve with a more experienced OL. They lose there starting RB but he was not impressive last year, 693 yards 3.7 average.
The defense returns 9 starters but also adds DE JC who was on ALA for 3 years and was a 4* recruit out of high school. They also add a 6-6 380 JC NT and he will fit in nicely because they are moving to a 3-4 defense. Last year they had two starting freshman at LB (starting LB’s last year had 1 career start, this year 55), they are the top two returning tacklers. They should be even better this year being bigger and more experience with the defense. They also add there number 2 tackler from 2010 who was injured last year. The Defensive backfield returns 8 players who started last year and 5 of those started 8+ games. This unit should also be improves due to experience. They only loss there LS from special teams. They had decent return numbers and have a good FG kicker but there punter was very lacking last year.
Tennessee was a really young team last year and they return 21 starters 2nd most in the nation(2nd only to UTSA who is entering their first year at DIV 1). I think they dramatically improve on last year 5-7 record and also on their 4-8 ATS. I think they are at least a 8-4 team and have potential to win 9 or 10. I also think they will have a winning record ATS this year.

Somoney, great info. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Tenn line has moved on 5 dimes. Over 7.5 wins has gone from +130 to +105 and over 7 has gone from -120 to -180. That’s a big jump. BetDSI still has over 7 at -120 and I’m locking that bet in right now.
Thanks for the heads up. I locked in O 7 at -135 at BetOnline a few weeks ago. It is still -140 over there.
It doesn’t take much to move these early lines. I got Oregon State O 4.5 (-165) several weeks ago and after I made the bet it jumped to -190 and is now at -280.
