Don't forget that Vandy has lost several expected contributors on the offensive line this offseason, including starter and cheap shot artist Logan Stewart.

Ok, let's average out those numbers a bit... 45-7.

We should beat the tar out of them, but I guarantee you the team will take them seriously.

If you actually do average out the numbers it comes to 36-11. Hoorah math!

If you want an actual average, it comes out to around 35-10. I'd take it

I believe we can score a ton of points on them. Their defense was gutted.

I can't remember USC EVER looking like a well oiled machine in the first game of the season. My guess is that USC will have about twice the number of yards of Vanderbilt, but only about 10 to 13 more points. The only way USC scores big is if Vandy is also having problems with execution, in which case the defense forces a few turnovers and USC runs away with it.
Franklin will work his guys hard to win this game, national TV and starting the season, this is a great chance for Vandy to make a statement. OTOH for USC the goal will be to just get out of town with a win and no major injuries.

A lot of concern for a team that only managed less than 100 yards on our defense.

Don't think this team will overlook them at all. Yeah, it's a "statement" game for Vandy, but also for us. I expect that we will score early and score often.
(Folks over on the Vandy boards are proabably chewing this stuff up...)

We have Spurrier as our coach. If anyone knows that running up the score still holds weight with rankings it's him. We have a legitimate shot at only losing one game this year and the other games will be looked at regarding end of the year rankings. I believe Spurrier and the team have high goals this year and they know that every game counts.

It will be a good game with us pulling away at the end. My prediction is 27-16, Cocks.

I hope we run the ball about 25 times in the first half.
I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubble gum.

This obviously depends on how fall practice goes, but I predict a first quarter similar to East Carolina last year, minus the miscues and dropped passes. We'll throw deep within the third or fourth play from scrimmage and try to sling it around if we can.
I dont care how many sportswriters say that he's "changed his ways." I'll be damned if he doesn't love the hell out of the deep ball.
If it doesn't work like they scripted, we dial it back a notch and let Marcus do his thing and go with a more conservative gameplan.

that's probably the more likely scenario but I would still like to see Lattimore and Miles get lathered up early, then work the play action.

True ... but you've got to admit, nothing is more exciting than a 50 yard long ball to Ellington over the middle

Play

That was nice. I think for the Vandy game though if we took over physically on both sides of the ball early when we could run away with it. Spurrier does know a little more about gameplanning and calling plays than I do so whatever.

I think you are right.
