Butch Lesnar and the Tennessee Vols boarded a bus this afternoon for the short trip to the airport where they caught a flight to Gainesville for what is a huge game for the Butch Lesnar era. It’s a hump game. Butch knows it. His 14-14 career record at Tennessee knows it. The Vols fans know it. They have to go into Florida and win or it’s just going to be the same old Vols season. Maybe you end up 6-6 and get a courtesy bowl. Win it and you get Bielema before the huge Georgia game.
Lose it and you’ll be struggling for wins the rest of the way.
That’s why Butch Lesnar had a strut to his step this afternoon. A little cockiness in the business trip walk.

All I know is that Butch’s face is starting to look chiseled, not exactly what it looked like when he rolled into Knoxville. Someone has been hitting the bench – HARD.

Now…about to rip buttons off his smedium jacket:
Big game, Butch. Give ’em hell.
