| Wouldn't surprise me if we get Syracuse. They've been pretty terrible setting up the matchups to this point. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| Rumors swirling of UK playing St. John's. Weak sauce IMO. |

| I'm a fan of this. There's much more to gain for us than there is for Pitt. Plus, we'll get some national exposure on ESPN as well.

| | Senior Member | If Tennessee and Kentucky traded opponents, the Challenge would be set up about as well as it possibly could be. |

That UK-St Johns matchup is pathetic. The ESPN-types probably love it. And I don't understand why they would want us in a rematch? Give us something different. |

Give us something different. | I don't care about different, I want the best possible series. There are only two games of the twelve that I think aren't fairly evenly matched. Flip the opponents in those two and you have twelve dogfights. |

| I agree that the UK/St. Johns game isn't quite the best of matchups; BUT, St. Johns has the number three class in the country coming in. There will be some talent on that team. Just freshman heavy. Anyways, getting to Tennessee- I thought that in these challenges you got a different opponent every season? |

Cincy or WVa |
