Almost here. I think this is a very big game for Napier despite it being early in year 2. It might be one of the games that determine how he is viewed as year 3 progresses next season.
I think we have close to a 50/50 chance to win this game in the Swamp. The defense will have to really play big and the offense score some without turning the ball over. If we have more turnovers than TN I think we likely lose. If TN scores more than 24 points and we are mostly playing in a box on offense it is a likely loss I think. Napier needs to attack some with 3 WRs actually running routes down the field as that is the weakness of the TN defense. Unless the defense is really controlling TN that playing in a box stuff Napier likes to do won't cut it imo.
