Well, at least that's what Tennessee seemed to have on Sunday night during the season opener against UNLV. Both true-freshman quarterbacks hit the ground running, and oh, did I say running? That boy Schaeffer can RUN! Those were some pretty darn impressive cuts I saw as I was jumping up and down, screaming with surprise. I loved those fakes! And Ainge (yes, he's Danny Ainge's nephew!), what an arm! I really *like* these guys, and I hope that we'll be able to hang on to both of them for a little while, at least. With two talents this strong, it is hard to tell how long they'll be willing to share the spotlight.
Right now, it looks like the element of surprise is working in our favor, and I think it will continue to work for us during the Florida game. Because Hurricane Frances postponed Florida's first game and because we have a buy this week, the TN-FL game will be only the second game of the season for both teams. They don't have much to study on Schaeffer or Ainge, and that should take the edge off our newbies.
In other news, Cedric, we're hoping you're up and running again soon. May your recovery be speedy and painless!

Back in the Groove!
Well, the EpiscoVOL is so excited that College Football is back that I've been neglecting the blog! Of course, a coding problem prevented me from posting for the past two weeks, so I'm way behind on the news. As last year, we've got to start with the annual
Tune In, Shout OUT, then Go Shake It Off!
Sept. 05 UNLV at Ktown, on ESPN... WIN 42-17, what a game! comments later.
Sept. 06 Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Sept. 18 Florida at home, CBS 8:00pm est. The EpiscoVOL will be blogging this one LIVE from the GAME!!
Sept. 19 Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Even though it may be tempting, the EpiscoVOL suggests that you refrain from wagering on this game, or you'll be sorry when you're sitting through the "you cannot serve both God and Money" sermon on Sunday!
Sept. 25 Louisiana Tech at Ktown, Homecoming! PPV 7:00pm est.
Sept. 26 Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost
Oct. 02 Auburn at Ktown.
Oct. 03 Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Oct. 09 Georgia at Athens.
Oct. 10 Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost
The EpiscoVOL does not like the way these texts read as consoling the lost . . . dare we say it, but last year, texts of consolation corresponded with big orange losses! Let us continue to hope that this won't hold this year!
Oct. 16 Mississippi at Oxford.
Oct. 17 Twentieth Sunday after Pentecost
Oct. 23 Alabama at Ktown.
Oct. 24 Twenty-first Sunday after Pentecost
Oct. 30 South Carolina at Columbia.
Oct. 31 Twenty-second Sunday after Pentecost or possibly the Feast of All Saints.
Nov. 06 Notre Dame in da BIG house!
Nov. 07 The Feast of All Saints or Twenty-third Sunday after Pentecost
I'm kinda rooting for those churches that opt to celebrate the Feast of All Saints on Nov. 7. It seems kinda appropriate for the day after the meeting of the ND Saints with God's Chosen Team.
Nov. 20 Vanderbilt at N'ville.
Nov. 21 Last Sunday after Pentecost, Christ the King
Nov. 27 Kentucky at Ktown.
Nov. 28 First Sunday of Advent or the day of hair-tearing, locust- and honey-eating prophecy. What bowl game news will this prophecy hold?
And that's the run-d0wn of this year's EpiscoVOL coverage. Stay tuned for the theological analysis of last week's UNLV shocker.
