The Cats have not been on road since the first weekend in a round robin tourney in SC.

They did beat TennnTech 10-6 at home but it is funny TTU loses to smaller schools at home by 20-runs but will beat Vols and lose by only 4 at UK.

They give up some runs but are a good offensive team that leads the SEC in hitting. (Vols are 10th) and are 7th in team ERA (Vols are 10th) Due to weak schedule, I think their team ERA is relatively low.

They are 1st or 2nd in every offensive category but triples. They even have more HBP than Vols who are 2nd.

Like the Vols, and despite their schedule the Cats give up a lot of homeruns.

They do field the ball well and are third in SEC on fldg percentage.

Hoping to make it to Knoxville this weekend, and maybe catch one of the games.

This is a big weekend for the Vols. Its tough playing teams that are this hot, and I think Kentucky will get knocked off their horse soon. We will see how they can deal with their first real adversity. They are coming off a real high note beating SC and are certainly feeling like they have established themselves. Plus SC just beat the best team in America last night. Extra validation right there. Kentucky may be looking past us. I agree with Serrano in that we can really send a shock wave through that team if we can beat them in game 1 or 2. If so, I really like our chances of winning the following day in games 2 or 3.
