Alright boys. This is the one we've been waiting on. We are officially in the field and our opening game is here. Let's bring the fight early this time and play our game. Defend defend defend. Make our easy buckets. Play with poise. The door is wide open for this team to take us all on a ride. It's March baby. Lets get mad! Down with the Minutemen in a minute man!

Go Vols.

I think Vols will come out "Stoked" - especially since Duke just lost. Having a game under your belt should help early on.

Mercer was the Atlantic Sun regular season champion last year before losing to Florida Gulf Coast in the tournament. Florida Gulf Coast was the darling of the Cinderella's last year. They start 5 seniors. They beat Tennessee in Knoxville in the first round of the NIT last year. If Tennessee wins today, the Mercer game will be a Battle Royale. Don't think it will be an easy win! Duke hit 15 3's and LOST!

Tennessee did not show up for the Mercer NIT game last year - I was there and we played one of the worst games I have seen in 3 years. But would rather play Mercer than Duke but have to make it past Mass today.....

Not to jump ahead since we have to beat UMass, but if we do I hope we have enough sense to not jack up 3's and pound it inside , not just against. Mercer but today as well. Go Vols!

Did the team travel from Dayton to Raleigh via bus or chartered flight. I'm hoping it was a flight, that's a long bus ride
