Carry, JP off the bench... Tough stuff. Carey coming around... Thought he had a great game.

I honestly think Tennessee is a top 10 team looking at this

Do we play winner of Michigan/Auburn?

Looks like its more complicated than that and has to do with point differential. Since we killed Rutgers we are almost certainly in the final unless the Zags and Auburn win by a significant margin. Then they might jump us to the final. But if Michigan wins and Gonzaga doesn't win by >18, it's us and Michigan.

Here's the current differential:
2-0 teams -
Vols +28
Kansas +21
Iowa State +19

1-0 teams -
Michigan +40
Auburn +11
Gonzaga +10
Maryland +7

But Boswell was that dude. He set the tone on defense and was that effort guy. He played a huge role tonight.

I really don’t care

The Houston win was good enough for me

We just don’t have any impressive wins.

That number is wrong. Vols beats Rutgers by 25 and beat Houston by 3. That's +28.

It's +23 yesterdays 25 point win is capped at +20

If you were a Tennessee fan, then you'd know that Vanderbilt always sucks.

You got me. I'm a closet Vanderbilt fan and I'm really good at acting. I'm an excellent thespian. I'm in here yesterday talking about Candace and Bruce making me emotional talking about Pat and how fresh that loss still is. Totally rooting for Pavia all over this board too. I haven't even sunk to insulting his height. That's how much respect I have for the guy. Heck I hope he plays another year. I figure his two idiot brothers will need bail money again at some point. Anchor Down.

This is dumb

 

[JP_UT_O&W]

Love the fight...Carey & Boswell both with good timed breakout games

Ja'Kobi put in work again!

Ament played well despite his shots not falling

 

[Dooby15]

We have a pretty good basketball team. Huge win

 

[Revived2002]

We just don’t have any impressive wins.

You win the games on your schedule. We lost to three of the top 10, and two of those were one possession games.

But I get they have to evaluate that. I’m just saying after watching a season of college football this year, I don’t think anyone would want to play Tennessee in the playoffs. We are good enough to make a run there

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I really don’t care

The Houston win was good enough for me

That was the championship game, imo

 

[Jackcrevol]

We arent here to win stupid paper titles. Get experience, tonite was like a tourney game.

What a game. Cant wait to see us move to #25 in polls.

Wasn't it bos that let the freshman score and backed off late in the game? I just remember seeing it happen. I'm still getting used to numbers and faces.

Not being critical. It was a smart play at the time. Let him get two. Don't risk giving him three.

 

[jakez4ut]

That's dumb

 

[JCP201]

This is dumb

It really is.

You think we're a top 10 team because we beat Kentucky (2-6 in the SEC and 5-6 overall)? They are the best team we've beaten this year.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

It really is.

Why not just extend it, and run it like a real tournament

[Revived2002]

Cool thing about the Houston win is we could have won several ways I think

We were giving to Gillespie but I think if we had gotten it to Ament and just told him to drive, he would have scored 10+ at the foul line down the stretch

 

[drvenner]

Great win. Did not get to see it but sounds like it was a great game
