Some ESPN Love?

Quote:
1. Tennessee coach Cuonzo Martin has done a tremendous job. How so? The Vols can actually be the No. 2 seed in the SEC tournament. How? If Tennessee beats Vanderbilt in Knoxville and Florida loses to Kentucky -- both very plausible -- then UT would be the 2-seed, winning a three-way tie at 10-6 with Florida and Vanderbilt or a four-way tie with those two and Alabama if the Tide win at Ole Miss. That’s how important the sweep of the Gators is to Tennessee. What’s amazing is that the Vols would be leapfrogged for an NCAA bid by Vandy, Florida and Alabama.

There'd be four teams tied. We lost to Alabama, but went 2-0 against Florida, and 1-1 against Vandy. That would put the record against all of them at 3-2, which would be better than any of the other records.

Because it would be a 4 way tie, then the tiebreaker would be games vs. the other teams in the tie...Tenn (3-2), Bama (1-2), FLA (2-3), Vandy (3-2), then you look at head to head between us and Vandy which is even 1-1, so the next step is record vs the next best team which would be FLA because they beat Bama...we're 2-0 vs FLA, Vandy 1-1...got all that? haha

Vandy would be 3-2 also, but then it goes h2h which would be a split if we beat vandy. The next tie breaker would be better rec against highest seed. Both teams 0-2 against uk. Next would be florida and ut swept them so we would get #2 seed.

He said even if we won and finished as the 2 seed, Vandy gators and Bama would leapfrog us and leave us out of the NCAA. So he basically said we have no shot at the NCAA.

ESPN hates us.
