    Am I seeing this right? Tennessee down to -7.5 this morning?

    That is NOT the direction I expected that line to go.

    Shocking to me too. I thought it may get close to 2 touchdowns.

    Are we gaining some respect? Or is this to gain some betting action? I think it?s the latter of the two. If we beat Rocky Top, we will then gain respect in a significant way.

    Early money always drives the line down. Watch it about Wednesday or Thursday and that will tell you how Vegas feels about our chances. If it is like the Arizona St game then it will continue to fall.

    Here is why I think it has come down.

    MSU has covered the first 4 games of the year. This may be a correction.

    ASU beat Baylor, Aub beat Baylor, Aub had OU on ropes. That ASU win looks better today.

    We are at home and a real advantage.

    We pounded a stingy D last Sat.

    They have had numerous injuries in the Secondary- which is why they are currently last in the SEC in pass D and 15th in Scoring D

    Tennessee has played 4 games and has yet to score less than 41 points. I think they score 35+ on us. Will we outscore them? I hope so.

    According to DK right now:

    97% of ML bets are on Tenn
    87% against the Spread bets are on Tenn
    73% are betting the Over vs 27% on the Under

    We are devoid of pass rush. Tennessee should score about 45 points.

    Surprising that early money is coming in so heavily on them and the line going down. There must be some mega money on us.

    Tennessee better than AZ State:

    Better QB in terms of throwing the ball
    Better overall WR unit
    Better play caller
    Better depth on both lines
    SEC athletes all over the field

    AZ State better than Tennessee:

    Better athlete at QB
    Better number 1 WR
    Better rush attack
    Better defensive play caller
