No, if you read the article, they are expecting the Vols to go 8-4 or 9-3 in the regular season. There are a few games the Vols are favored by a point or less, so these games are considered a coin toss. How can a #15-20 ranked team be favored over top ten teams??? I am a little confused on that one. Go Vols!

Favored means expected to win right??? so the OP is saying 11 wins they should have.

I didn't go to vandy. Probably couldn't have gotten in. Definately couldn't have afforded it.
I did read the article and didn't see anything that said 50.01%. Lowest was georgia at 51. Next lowest was 58.
Are fans of certain schools supposed to have attended school there?
You did say YOU were confused on how the vols were favored over higher ranked teams.
