This should be another huge game for the Vols. I think you could make the case that this team is worse than UNCA. They average a little bit over 20 turnovers a game and teams are getting about 18 points off of it. They aren't very good behind the line, are picked to finish almost last in CUSA, and they don't have much of a bench (Young, Morrow, and Sherrod over 30 mpg). I like Mack and think he did a wonderful job at Chatt but this team just simply sucks. Contain Young and Morrow and this game gets super ugly.

It will be disappointing if this game isn't ugly.

Perhaps we can hold them scoreless in the first half, as opposed to the lackluster effort the other night.

Indeed. Getting blown out by Wake Forrest and losing to Campbell is pretty horrible. Not to mention the 16 game losing streak to ranked opponents. They would certainly hang a banner if they beat us ;)

Actually broke one of my cardinal rules, and bet on the Vols -26... I figure if Wake Forest can do it, so can we.

And we haven't actually played poorly in tournaments recently, at least compared to how badly we used to.

I don't expect a repeat of Tuesday night. I'll say a 25-30 point win. I'm more anxious to see how our defense performs in this tourney.
