Thanks Auburn!

Anyone know when the last time Tennessee sat atop the regular season standings?

Does Auburn hold the tiebreaker or does that even matter?

Doesn’t matter except for SECT seeding...if tied we are both co-champions.

The way I understand, it matters for tournament seeding but not for the regular season conference title. There is no tiebreaker for the regular season, so if both finish with identical records we would share the regular season crown with Auburn.

Does. Not. Matter.

Win on Saturday and the worst we can do it share the regular season championship. That’s just incredible.

Amen.Great great job.

 

[Voltopia]

Oh man, Thompson-Boling is going to be absolutely lit Saturday. Playing for at worst a share of the regular season championship -- not too shabby for the 13th best team in the SEC.

 

[IPleadInsanity]

Rather play UGA than USC this Saturday. Double bye is pure gold! This team went 0-2 in the SEC, my goodness!

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Nice, thanks for the clarification.


Go Vols!


....and Zags!

 

[OneVolNation]

Now all that stands between us and the championship crown is avenging this season's earlier loss to Georgia.

Playing for a championship is motivation to do it!

I was driving home from work when I saw the Auburn/Arkansas score and almost wrecked the car lol...I am seriously excited about this weekend!...Kinda nice having something to cheer about huh?

It’s close. USC is hot, but UGA has Maten. Either way we will get at least a 2 seed in the SECT.

 

[Dtj64]

I think we handle Georgia if we play defense like we did today.... No doubt.

Congratulations. Really hope Vol fans, especially the ones who generally don't follow basketball can get behind and support this team. Incredible season.

They should get behind this team. There's not going to be a lot to cheer about this fall. We're a basketball school now!

 

[Volfan2012]

Going for an SEC regular title Saturday is awesome. Georgia stands in the way we lost down there time to beat the Dogs.

 

[Madscientistvol]

Congratulations. Really hope Vol fans, especially the ones who generally don't follow basketball can get behind and support this team. Incredible season.

I am one of these. Basketball just isn't my sport of choice, but damn is it exciting now. Full support, seasons like this don't happen every year.

 

[Volfan2012]

Been 10 years last time we won was 2008.

 

[StarRaider]

Anyone know when the last time Tennessee sat atop the regular season standings?

In MBB, I believe the last full day would be 1/2/2017 at 1-0 after defeating aTm (12/29/2016) in the opening game and before losing to Arky on 1/3/2017.

 

[1985Vols]

Would be our 3rd SEC basketball championship since 2000. Last Football SEC championship 1998. Yep, we're a basketball school baby!

 

[UT_Dutchman]

Thanks Auburn!

At the end of 2008 season I believe.

 

[IPleadInsanity]

Curious to see how Barnes adjusts for UGA. Hard to beat him twice.

Without looking...anytime we started the regular season 1-0.

I'll let myself out..

You're probably correct. That question didn't quite come out the way I thought it would. lol

At the end of 2008 season I believe.

I pulled up all the years (8) in which Tennessee won the SEC regular season conference championship, for those, like me, who were curious.

1942
1945
1967
1972
1977
1982
2000
2008

Yeah, that turned out to be a dud of a question, huh? lol
