    Interesting, what makes you say that? Their last 3 road games are an 8-point win over a garbage OM team, and big losses to UGA and Bama, both of whom are thoroughly mediocre. Even their most recent home games are close wins over Florida and SC. They don't seem like a typical top-20 team, at least not right now.

    None of this really matters at all.

    I totally agree with this. I like our chances tomorrow night with the way we've been playing and finding ways to win not to mention that 18-1 at home doesn't happen by accident even if the out of conference home schedule was weak. LSU is a trap game if I've ever seen one.

    If this were to happen, it absolutely would not be a guarantee we'd be in.

    It's a big game for Tennessee, but I like our chances. We will not lose to LSU on their Senior Night.

    Winning Saturday was huge for our team. I see it as a step forward in that we pulled out the close game and stayed focused throughout. Coach Howland is performing at a high level, and the team is following his lead.

    Texas .. @kansas , West Virginia.
    Baylor .. Oklahoma , @ k state
    Louisville .. Virginia , Nc State
    USC .. UCLA

    Nebraska..Conference tournery
    ND.. Pitt , Virginia
    Boise St. @ SD state, Wyoming

    The last four in have a tough road. I don’t see any of them going 2-0 and we should jump USC by going 2-0 our next 2 . We have no room for error that’s for sure. 2-0 gets us in the last 4 for sure maybe even Higher which would be huge.

    A lot then will depend on the conference tourneys . Upsets, teams going deep in tourneys, quality wins in tourneys Ect..

    Their ability to hit 3s concerns me. I also have no confidence our post guys can guard Williams. On the other side, I watched tyree (OM) drive at will vs Tennessee. We have 2 guards better at driving than tyree. Peters and nick should have a really nice offensive game

    The heck? Haha, you offered some data, I said it won't matter in regard to NCAA selection, which was the topic of the thread. That's it. I wasn't angry or trying to shove anything in your face. But you seem reasonable.

    OM held Williams to 6pts on 3/10 shooting. He's a very good player but he's not invincible. He may score 20 but 2 out of his last 3 games he's scored 5 & 6 points. It's doable.

    I just mean in regard to standing in respective conferences. The committee has said publicly that it doesn't matter, and all the experts on this say that it doesn't matter. It's only fans saying it does matter. That tells me it likely doesn't matter.

    Dang right it does, that’s who we are competing with for at-large bids.. why wouldn’t it matter.

    Just wondering, is Lunardi so accurate because he’s smarter than everyone else and computers, or is it because the committee just uses his bracket for the tourney minus any changes?
    You're blind if you can't see improvement.....Freshmens......Strain.....Kick rocks and pound sand......Drag my Yankee ass outta here!......
