A predictable place for Tennessee

There is a scene from the movie "The Waterboy" where Rob Schneider's character makes the statement " OH NO WE SUCK AGAIN!" right after the Waterboy is dismissed from the team for his grades.  Collectively it is as if most of the Tennessee Fan base made such a statement or had that thought given Tennessee's lackluster performance against UMass, a winless team that they should have blown out in a fashion similar to what Alabama did to Vandy.  

Talking to many Tennessee Vol fans that I know there is already a sense that Butch Jones is a dead coach walking and certain to fall badly to Georgia and quite possibly a blowout.  The Vegas odds makers, as of today have Georgia picked by 8 but given that the game is at Knoxville and Tennessee fans are already sore at the Florida loss with Alabama and LSU coming up they expect to at least beat one of either Florida, Georgia or Alabama but today there is a real fear that Kentucky could prevail and Butch Jones 5th season be yet another that Tennessee doesn't make it to Atlanta and worse a second year that Tennessee doesn't or quite possibly doesn't have a post season game.  If that actually happens then I too believe that this may well be Butch Jones last season especially with coaches like Chip Kelly out there looking for a job.  

Some will be happy to see Tennessee fans and the Vols suffering yet again due to the past actions of Tennessee, specifically with regards to what they did or attempted to do to Alabama.  What ever happens it appears to be another predictable season for Tennessee and their fans.
