3 what in a row?

Look at the past two years. In 16 and 17, the team that opened the season ranked #6 in the preseason AP poll finished as a 1 seed and eventual national champion.

Think you mean 2018

This is the deepest roster Tennessee has had since the Jerry Green era when they had Black and Hathaway and Victor, etc.

Players will be fighting for minutes all season long.

[UTK]

Make no mistake about it. The goal this year is to win that natty.
