SMU got hosed. Better them than us.

 

[SmokeyLives]

I'll be there to provide on site analysis!

 

[GetEmVols]

Regardless of how the NCAA and how certain posters try to spin it, playing in a "play-in" game by definition means you have to win the "play-in" game to "play-in" the the NCAAT.

The best of CONzo is a play-in game........Well we will have another year of CONzo........let the mediocrity continue....

Let's see how they do. They have been playing well. Then we can grab our pitchforks

It has PLAY IN in the name

Actually labeled 1st round

 

[golfballs]

Welp I think st joes winning today bumped us out of the regular field

 

[Aesius]

Big thanks to coach Clownzo for finding a way to underachieve.

But he wins 20 games a year! Us poor UT basketball fans should accept our place in the pecking order and be happy with barely sliding into the tournament.

 

[Manvol]

We are progressing. Next year we may actually get a seed.

Providence too.

Excellent news we made but you do know the catch need to beat Iowa to make it into the First Round.

Wrong

 

[catchnburn]

Excellent news we made but you do know the catch need to beat Iowa to make it into the First Round.

You mean second round

 

[DERELICK_MY_VOLS]

Confused? If we have to play a play in game to get in the tournament then are we really in the tournament yet?

IMHO........

 

[Unimane]

the sec was one of the worst conferences in the country, apparently. The SEC's crap reputation is a problem for UT...

It also allowed us to pad our record and get a nice easy pathway down the stretch. We don't make the tournament in any other power conference.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Here's to hoping we get trounced by Iowa so I can welcome Bruce back with arms wide open

SMU got hosed. Better them than us.

Makes no sense

 

[Vols4us]

Beat aTm, UTEP, etc. and you remove all question. By far the worst brackets in NCAA history. It has turned into politics just like our government.

Just win. Solves the problem.

Keep dreaming.

 

[vols 30]

In which tournament?

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Lol

 

[Mullins2010]

Someone please tell me how BYU is a 10 seed

 

[UTCVol]

Makes no sense

NCSU is hilarious.

 

[Kicker82]

Iowa is not playing even half decent basketball right now. We should win by 10+

 

[CagleMtnVol]

Can't believe people are celebrating! I don't consider the Play-In game to be a part of the NCAA Tournament unless you win then and only then you can say you are in!

 

[patrick]

Well by definition it's "the first four"

still a play in game no matter the spin... was introduced by the AA as a play-in game and will always be a play-in game. but Vol fans prob happy with that and with CONzo.. because the program was on the skids when CCM took over....

lol:lol:lol:

 

[VolFromNashville]

Insert chip on shoulder.

 

[drewtigeralum]

You think Duke is overrated?

If not for the typical ACC ref B.S. Clemson would have knocked them out in the quarterfinals of the ACC tournament. They he no inside game...at all...0.
