Expected Win Total Analysis: After Georgia

It’s Post-Game Monday, which means that it’s time to re-assess our expected win totals in light of what happened this past weekend. You can submit your own ballot at the GRT Expected Win Total Machine page.

My assessment

I’m writing this early Sunday morning, so what I’m writing may be a bit amplified by the proximity to yesterday’s disappointment.

My expected win total for this season is now 5.45.

Here’s how I’ve tracked this season:

  • Preseason: 5.4
  • After beating South Carolina: 5.8
  • After beating Missouri: No analysis, but would have gone up
  • After the loss to Georgia: 5.45

Details: I have Florida at 20%, Alabama at 25%, A&M and Auburn at 45%, Kentucky and Arkansas at 60%, and Vanderbilt at 90%.

Here’s a table with my expectations this week:

Tennessee Volunteers currently

Current record: 2-1, 2nd in the SEC East

I’m sure I’m no different than most Vols fans in that I was feeling pretty good about Tennessee after wins over South Carolina and Missouri. I didn’t think the Vols would beat Georgia, but I did think it wouldn’t feel like a replay of the past several years. In the first half, it didn’t feel like that, as the offense appeared to be doing just enough to hang with the Bulldogs and maybe even win and the defense was frustrating Georgia’s offense.

But Georgia’s superb defense was just too much in the second half, having its way with Tennessee’s talented offensive line over and over and over again while the Vols’ defense slowly gave out.

I’m cautioning myself not to overreact too much. Georgia is a national title contender, after all, and if Tennessee can still take care of business against the SEC East’s second tier, it still has plenty of opportunities (Alabama, Florida) to maybe get one of those elusive wins against elite teams. And even without that, there’s room to grow with additional opportunities against teams like A&M and Auburn that appear to be somewhere in between the elite and the SEC East’s second tier.

The question, of course, is whether I think any of that is actually reasonable. At this point, I do, although my certainty about it has waned significantly after this weekend.

Bottom line: I’m only slightly more concerned about the Vols themselves this week than I was last week.

The Vols’ future opponents

Kentucky Wildcats

Current record: 1-2, 4th in the SEC East

I’m feeling worse about the Kentucky Wildcats, and not just because they had six (!) interceptions this weekend. After watching Ole Miss score almost at will against Alabama last night, that one-point loss in overtime to the Rebels is looking pretty good as well. I’m moving them from 70% to 60%.

Alabama Crimson Tide

Current record: 3-0, 1st in the SEC West

Again, I’m not sure whether last night’s back-and-forth with Ole Miss is more credit to Lane Kiffin or concern about Alabama’s defense. For now, I’m splitting the difference on that. So, I’m feeling slightly better about Alabama this week. Sure, they also scored 63 points, but it’s beginning to become clear that Ole Miss can’t stop anybody so maybe that’s not quite as impressive as it seems. I’m moving the Tide from 20% to 25%.

Arkansas Razorbacks

Current record: 1-2, 4th in the SEC West

Arkansas would have beaten Auburn if not for a botched call that replay wasn’t able to overturn. I’m feeling much worse about these guys. They no longer seem like the Vanderbilt of the West; they look like either a member of the second tier in the SEC East or, gulp, like us. I’m moving them to 60% and just below Kentucky.

Texas A&M

Current record: 2-1, 2nd in the SEC West

A&M exposed Florida’s problems on defense. Whether that means they are finally now who we thought they were preseason, I don’t know. I do know that I feel worse about them today than I did two days ago. I’m moving them from 50% to 45%.

Auburn Tigers

Current record: 2-1, 2nd in the SEC West

See Arkansas above. Auburn lost this on a botched snap that Bo Nix then attempted to spike backward, basically making it a lateral. Arkansas recovered, but the refs on the field got it wrong, and the rules say that replay couldn’t correct it, probably because the whistle blew and players stopped playing. Still, the Tigers are dangerous. I’m feeling like these guys are essentially the same as Texas A&M, so I’m making both of them 45% and giving the Tigers the edge.

Vanderbilt Commodores

Current record: 0-3, 7th in the SEC East

See South Carolina above. No change in perception of the ‘Dores: 90%.

Florida Gators

Current record: 2-1, 2nd in the SEC East

See A&M above. I’m not sure whether to credit A&M for the win or be a little less concerned about the Gators because of their defense. Bottom line, I think I feel a little less concerned about them this week than last. That offense is really good, but yes, the defense does make them vulnerable. I’m keeping them at 20% and making them the most difficult game remaining due to dropping Alabama to 25%.

The Vols’ past opponents

South Carolina Gamecocks

Current record: 1-2, 4th in the SEC East

South Carolina basically did what it was supposed to do against Vanderbilt this week. That means no change in perception and no impact on perception of Tennessee for me.

Missouri Tigers

Current record: 1-2, 4th in the SEC East

Who knows whether Missouri beating LSU says more about Missouri or more about LSU? I feel maybe slightly better about Tennessee now that Missouri has beaten LSU, but I wonder if LSU is just as much of a mess as I thought they would be preseason. Of course, I also thought the Georgia offense would struggle and I appear to have been wrong about that, so maybe Missouri deserves more credit than I’m giving them.

Georgia

Current record: 3-0, 1st in the SEC East

We’ll see how Georgia does against Alabama next week. I really thought their offense would struggle more this season and that Tennessee’s offensive line would be closer to an even match against that defense than it turned out to be.

What about you? Where are your expectations for the Vols now? You can post your current thoughts and details here, but don’t forget to submit your ballot to the GRT Win Total Machine.

Tennessee Vols statistical ranking trends – After Week 6

Here’s our weekly color-coded look at how the Vols’ national rankings are trending in each of the official NCAA stat categories. The word of warning continues this week: With the pandemic causing conferences and teams to start their respective seasons at different times, what used to rank 130 or so teams is currently ranking only 75.

Offense

If the table above doesn’t display well, try using this link.

Currently doing well: Passes had intercepted, 4th down conversion percentage, tackles for loss allowed, red zone offense, completion percentage

Took a hit this week: Rushing offense fell all the way from No. 24 to No. 66, sacks allowed fell from No. 31 to No. 60, and passing yards per completion went from No. 26 to No. 48

Currently needs improvement: 3rd down conversion percentage, rushing offense, total offense, sacks allowed, first downs offense, passing offense

Defense

If the table above doesn’t display well, try using this link.

Currently doing well: Defensive TDs, first downs defense, 4th down conversion percentage defense

Took a hit this week: First downs offense went from No. 10 to No. 26, scoring defense went from No. 17 to No. 37. Total defense and rushing defense also fell this week.

Improved this week: 4th down conversion percentage defense

Currently needs improvement: With only about 75 teams ranked, No. 50 and below would qualify as the basement in this exercise, and even after playing Georgia, the Vols are not there in any given defensive category, which is good.

Special Teams

If the table above doesn’t display well, try using this link.

Currently doing well: Punt returns, punt return defense, net punting, kickoff returns

Took a hit this week: Kickoff return defense

Improved this week: Net punting and punt return defense

Currently needs improvement: Kickoff return defense

Turnovers and Penalties

If the table above doesn’t display well, try using this link.

Currently doing well: Turnovers lost, which, after losing three to Georgia tells you how much of an aberration that was so far in this early season. Also, fumbles recovered.

Took a hit this week: Everything in the penalty department. The Vols were all green heading into this game and ended up committing 10 penalties for 84 yards.

Improved this week: Fumbles recovered. Hurray for small sample sizes.

Appears to need improvement: Nothing is terrible here, but the Vols certainly lost their edge in both penalties and turnovers this week against the Bulldogs.

Tennessee-Georgia: Head-to-head statistical rankings

Below is a look at Tennessee’s national stat rankings side-by-side with the counterpart rankings for the Georgia Bulldogs. Details below.

When the Vols have the ball

Link to table

Where’s the opportunity?

Um . . . doing better against their defense than they do against ours? Expect things to look bad on offense for the Vols and know that it’s not us, it’s them. Hope Jarrett Guarantano continues to keep the ball safe from interceptions against a team much more likely to get one. Celebrate any and all successes, and when Tennessee does get into the red zone, hope they score.

Where’s the danger?

The danger is everywhere with these guys: first down, third down, in every facet of the defense. I would like to see how our rushing offense impacts their rushing defense numbers; maybe that’s not as dangerous as it seems.

Gameplan for the Vols on offense

Protect the ball. Try to establish the run. Play-action pass. When you get in the red zone, get in the end zone.

Vols on defense

Link to table

Where’s the opportunity?

Most everywhere. These numbers suggest we can get these guys off schedule and then play them straight up the rest of the series.

Where’s the danger?

There are a couple of important areas where this looks like an even matchup, most importantly third down.

Win first down. Get them off schedule to get an advantage on third down and then win third down. Any turnover in our favor will be really, really valuable.

This looks pretty even, although Georgia appears to have an advantage in the punting game. Big opportunity for the Vols’ punter.

There appear to be a lot of hidden yards for the Vols here, provided they continue to be disciplined and Georgia continues to do what it’s been doing. And Tennessee has shown through two games that it is not inclined to give the ball away. The Vols must continue that trend Saturday.
