If you are bored and needing something to do that will encourage you, check out the stats of our Vols and other top teams.

Going into today's game, we are the only team among UVA, Duke, UNC, UK, LSU and us that has 5 players averaging double figures and we have the best team shooting % (#3 in nation), assist/TO ratio (#2 in nation), FT % (#16 in nation) of all of them. I didn't add the Zags to the group because of their light weight schedule. Out of the group we are mid-pack in PPG D at 68. We are third in PPG O with only 4 points separating us from the top UNC at 87 PPG, who is 5 points worse than us on D. Three of our five top scorers are G's and who would you take over Bone from the rest as your PG? Strong G play usually prevails in March.
We can make a case for being #1 today. Two OT losses, no losses at home, no bad losses. SEC and ACC are expected to get the same number of teams in. As every Vol fan should know by now we never get the whistles - we have to win 8 on 5. When the rare fairly called game comes a long we blow out the other team. There should be a better officiating assignment for #1 and #2 seed games that what we have been experiencing.
This team is built to win it all this year. Play unselfish on O, shoot well, play tough D, compete for rebounds.
Don't. Pick. Us.
