If we beat Ohio State In Knoxville...

[getyopopcornready]

do yall think it will be a rivalry if we beat them in another classic finish?

 

[Freak]

It would take more than three games to classify it as a true rivalry in my mind.

 

[getyopopcornready]

yea but i think we should continue to schedule them if it turns out that way

 

[jcolli30]

Yeah...I think it would be along its way if they kept scheduling it, which I doubt. It scared me a little because when Ohio State beat us for the second time by one point I prayed that Ohio State would play Florida again and Florida to absolutely destroy them like before. It takes A LOT for me to cheer for the school that should not be named.

 

[VolinArizona]

Can we get a mod to do an IP check for getyopopcorn and Fine Vol?

 

[TennesseeFan07]

If we continue to schedule them and both do well it will be a rivalry

 

[tvolsfan]

I wouldn't mind playing them each year.

 

[ukvols]

I think we will destroy OSU in Knoxville next season. Pearl will really have them ready.

we were ready the last two times we played them and we blew both games so i dont think it will be a problem if they will be ready or not, but more so an issue will they be able to close the game out because both games they showed that they were better than OSU but we just didnt finish them off

 

[ukvols]

It's in Knoxville. We'll finish this one. I think it will be like the Memphis and Florida games from this past season.

well i sure hope not because that florida game scared the isht out of me the final minutes

 

[General Jack]

Would have beaten them twice if we could have shot 60% from the foul line... which shouldn't be asking too much.

On the other hand, this time Lofton and JaJuan couldn't get to the line even if taken to the floor hard. That kind of thing will kill your team percentage. Ramar REALLY needs to work on his free throw shooting.

Yeah, I hope the Vols don't go up by about 30 on Ohio State next year either and hold on for a measley 10 point win... :wacko:

they got within 6 and then we missed a shot at the other end which gave them a shot at cutting it to 3

 

[tidwell]

Remind me again what the final result of that one was?

 

[OrangeFan1]

I wouldn't care if Tennessee played them every year either. Playing a very good team can only do one thing, make your team better. It's good to schedule some games that are real competition, and out of our conference. Bring them on to Knoxville next season. Do they already have the basketball schedules for upcoming years on the website? I know they do the football schedule for several years ahead.

 

[OldHickoryOrange]

lets get them for a multi year football/basketball deal.

Tennessee won 86-76.

I really don't want to play Coach Tressel's group right now.

 

[Mrs.BigOrangeNation]

That would be so sweet considering I hate the football team as much as I hate the basketball team.

 

[OldHickoryOrange]

My mouth would be watering at a chance to play them. They were so overrated.

 

[tvolsfan]

12-0 in the regular season= not so overrated. Very few teams could have pulled that off.

Did you watch the National Championship by any chance? That team that dumped on OSU only beat Tennessee by 1 in a game we had about -5 rushing yards.

 

[tvolsfan]

I watched the game, and the rest of their season. There is no way UT gets by with less than 2 losses, but I would bet there would be more.
