I mean this is always a fun one. Bonus points if you're brave enough for score projections. I'll start for Tennessee.

Florida, Texas A&M, and Alabama are my swing games. Florida looks like a favorable match up for us as it stands, but having grown up through the early 2000's I just know that uf has some of that swamp magic. ATM is just a massive question mark for everyone from every perspective right now, certainly glad they play Alabama the week before they play us. Unfortunately we play Alabama in ttown the next week. Speaking of if there are any other vols reading this please help me flood Danny White's inbox with requests to return TSIO to a color clash game by wearing orange in Tuscaloosa this year. If that game looks good, or if we even pull out a win, we can start talking about the UGA game. Until then let's take this one game at a time. Overall I've got us going 10-2 with 8-4 being the absolute worst case for us to still have a 'decent' season. Also shout out to the scar game, I bet that one's going to be a barn burner.

The fallout from that southwest classic gonna rock the whole nation

Yes! It’s generally a crazy freaking game which Arkansas finds a way to give away. At least that’s a hog fan’s perspective.

Weird thing about Arkansas is they only really have a few TRUE home games every year. The Southwest Classic played in Dallas is cool, but never an actual home game and they play one game every year in Little Rock instead of Fayetteville. I don’t know of another program that does anything like it. There have been some cool games in Little Rock in the past, but that dream just needs to die. The stadium is garbage and it’s a home game that the home team has to travel three to four hours for.

Look at the stretch from LSU to Florida. @ LSU, “home” against A&M, @ Ole Miss, @ Bama, actual home game against Miss St, and @ Florida. I think the bye is in there too, giving them ONE true home game in almost two months. It’s crap.
