We SHOULD beat either team, but who knows this time of year? We beat Arkansas by 13 on the road and Vandy at home by 15, so not much difference there. Arkansas had 6 conference wins: A&Mx2, Mizzoux2, LSU and UGA. Vandy had 4 conference wins: Missouri, A&M, Arkansas and UF. Arkansas had the benefit of playing Mizzou. Of their 6 wins, Arkansas won 2 on the road: A&M and Mizzou. They gave Alabama a tussle last time out and Vandy beat UF last time out.

Our last 4 games have been white knuckle affairs, but I'd hope we can have something a comfortable win since we'll be playing on consecutive days. I suppose I'd prefer Vandy as that gives the greatest odds for a relatively easy win ahead of a monster rematch with Auburn.

All that said, I know nothing is guaranteed, so not counting either opponent as a sure win.

And, yes, I know, it's useless to speculate and doesn't matter what we think and we'll just play who we play and all that blah blah blah

Vandy.

Even though Arkansas has lost a lot of games, they have played a lot of folks close. For the sake of my blood pressure, I'd love to avoid a close game and Vandy gives us the best chance of doing that.

Even though we will play Arkansas, them winning in a tough overtime game can only help us. They will be tired having to turn around and play again at 3:30.....

Presumably. It's a quick turnaround for them. If we can win this one, I'd love to have an easy-ish win so we can be a bit more rested for our game with Auburn. If we lose, well, it doesn't really matter how that happens.
