Great draw. Good match up for Northwestern. Big time New Years Day bowl against weaker opponent.

Thank goodness we have almost a month to convince ourselves of that. Does Bose make a set of earphones that will silence the sounds of Rocky Top the way that they can eliminate the background jet noise?

OMG: early prediction: Fitz reverts to form and completely turtles and doesn't let kickers kick off or punters actually punt. It'll be all squibs that give Tenn the ball on their 35-40 and rugby punts for a 30 yard average.
Let them kick to Evan Berry and punt to Cam Sutton all night. We don't mind.

I usually hate it when he does hat, but in this case, I think it's the sensible strategy. Their return men are dangerous and take it to the house. Our D can stop them from the 35-40. I don't like our chances if their return men are able to score on us or get the ball deep into our territory.
