It really is fun to see the total chaos during tourney time. For UT, will this loss light a fire under Barnes and his team, or will they fold like they tend to do in the tournament? When they are on, they can play with anyone. It’s being on when they need to they haven’t been consistent about. No matter what the rankings/seedings, surprises will abound.
Well, that was ugly. Won’t matter if UT wins out, but they are in for a short tourney if they play like that again.
I don’t think it matters. Take care business and the seed difference between 1 and 2 will be immaterial.
Like all the other teams, they can win out and claim the prize, or not. It certainly seems to be the most complete UT has ever had and they are playing as well as anyone. It will be interesting to see how they do starting with UK this weekend.
While Knecht was held in check, the rest of the team picked up and delivered. This team is deep and unselfish, with multiple players who can step up and score. I that as the biggest difference in this team versus other UT teams under Barnes. It appears he has all the pieces to make a run.
Should be interesting to see the selections for the games. Pretty much any game on this list that doesn’t get ESPN Game Day will most likely get SEC Network Game Day version coverage. I really don’t watch Game Day too much anymore, Corso is about 5 years past when he should have retired, and they have just lost “it”, what it is that made them so enjoyable to watch. Still, as the author pointed out, big selling point and free advertising with them on campus.
Great game. Both teams will be hitting the ice baths. Lots of bruises.
SEC basketball is pretty good this year, especially the top half. They can pretty much hang with anyone if they are on. UT can prove they are top dog on the court, but the road is not going to be smooth. All the top teams have had tremendous games and “What…?” Games too. Should be an interesting end of season and SEC tourney.
They played a really great game. If they can bring that kind of effort every game, they will be a tough out. If Barnes is ever going to break his losing streak in the NCAA tourney, this is the team to do it.
The NCAA has no one to blame but themselves. They refused to take an active role in setting up the standards and rules. Let the games begin and may the odds be ever in your favor.
The wear and tear on these young men’s bodies in an extended playoff needs to be considered. These are not fully grown professionals. Having said that, money rules and chasing the almighty dollar takes priority for the greedy powers that be.
About the only thing you can say about this game was an ugly win beats a pretty loss.
Quite an accomplishment. The breaker shot was way out there too. Congrats to the young lady.
Yep, crazy season. UT beats UK at home then gets smoked by the Aggies.
Hate to see them go, but next coach up. Hopefully they can get good coaches who can recruit.
I believe they call it a monopoly. They never have the consumer's best interest.
UT gets a win/win with former players on both teams. Should be a good SB. They look fairly well matched.
Confidence is a wonderful thing in an athlete. However, it can be arrogance if there isn’t a basis for it. We’ll see if he is able to play to his bragging. If he is the top QB chosen in the NFL draft, then he has proven it. If not, just bragging.
They have struggled until they play UT. Double woof. Hopefully UT can take care of business this year at Neyland.
Going to be a long, legal battle from appearances. The NCAA has been too stupid to get in front of this and make rules that are clear and gets everyone on the same page. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.
I was at the UT game in Knoxville when they won 10-7. No one should have beaten UT but they did at UT. Bradley got knocked out of the game by Bobby Majors on a wicked hit that is illegal now. He came back in the 4th quarter and caught the winning pass from Sullivan. Great competitor.
Forgot Botch Jones when Dobbs threw the Hail Mary at UGA. Granted it was his first year, but a win is a win.
Not a surprise. You can’t breathe without creating a violation with the NCAA.
Glad you came back. Here is too a healthy, injury free and successful season.
Some coaches just prefer the NFL and don’t like the NCAA BS. He got UM their Natty, so mission accomplished.
Guess they finally met the mercenary’s price. Hopefully he earns his money.
While I expect to see UT’s offense improve, the jury is still out on the offensive line. While the line has been serviceable to good over the last couple of years, they have struggled against the top tier defenses (UGA 2022, MO and UGA last year). If they can improve on the line, then yet expectations will run high and justifiably so. Unfortunately, it will be nine months until we find out.
Glad to have you back young man. Here is to a successful and injury free season.
