Didn't Butch guarantee a bowl this season? It would be awesome if UT can beat Mizzou and have his guaranteed bowl berth prediction confirmed..

The S.Car win gave us real hope for a bowl game that seemed all but gone. Beating Mizzu, currently #1 in the SEC East, would raise eyebrows and put our whole season in a different light. We'd be on our way to 7-5 and maybe 8-5 when it looked only 2 weeks ago like we had a very real chance of ending up with the worst record in program history at 4-8. It would also set us up for some serious momentum going into next year. Add another great recruiting class to that in 2015 and it'd look like UT has turned a corner and is making serious progress back into contention in the SEC.

I agree with others who've said it: UT's got the right man at the helm. I believed that even mid-season when some were starting to grumble publicly.
