Ya never know which Tennessee team is going to show up.. But I would think that us beating Georgia 45-19 would argue the point that we're as good as Georgia.

Exactly... that's why I think UT beats South Carolina. Tennessee plays on an emotional gradient. With the exception of last year and Fulmer's last game, UT does not "get up" for UK anymore, as well they shouldn't because they have dominated UK for so long. UK's best hope is that UT enters 6-5 so they are not playing for a bowl bid and all in all they are capping off a disappointing season.

Additionally, their style of offense is very condusive for UK's defense to match up with. UK's biggest struggle comes against teams with either deep, tall receivers, athletic TE's, or against mobile QB's, when UK can play their safety's up and their LB's aren't forced to cover the pass they are very good against the run. Crompton is far from mobile, UT's WR depth is poor thanks to injuries, and Stocker is an average TE at best.

Georgia, OTOH, creates some issues for UK as they have a very talented WR corps led by AJ Green, they have a very athletic TE in Orson Charles, and even though Cox is not a very good QB and will not run the ball much, but he can move around the pocket pretty well and keep plays going with his feet.
