Another blowout vs. USC?

Anyone wanting to scout our upcoming game vs. USC, they are playing Kansas on ESPN right now.

Do we get blown out like last year?

USC is much, much younger this year. Tennessee should get well in this one.

We just caught Charlotte at the wrong time...they lost their #1 and had something to prove. Kind of like us last year vs. Kansas. Against Kansas we played up to their level...against Charlotte we played down to theirs.

I think Pearl is pretty easy to out coach: don't try to man up and play with his great athletes; just sag under the basket and make the Vols shoot over the top of a zone. Kevin O knew that last year, and I'll be pretty surprised if he has forgotten it.

Yup, so easy to do that I guess the 20+ wins he has each season are against coaches who are so stupid they can't figure this out.

USC is down 1 to Kansas with about 7 to play.

I don't think I'd be declaring an automatic blowout win yet.

Last year we were a much better team than Charlotte, even without the players suspended.

If Charlotte didn't suck I might agree with you.

Granted, it might be good because then THEY are the ones set up for a letdown.

Or then again they may beat us too.
