HUGE win. Took Arkansas' best punch and just wore them out down the stretch. Phenomenal effort, heart, and hustle, despite being dominated inside.

We're dancing, guys. Just playing for seeding now.

GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!

I know, I know, but the SEC road win was the only missing item on the resume. Even if, worst case scenario, UT loses to Florida and Georgia and loses in the 1st round of the SEC tournament, they've still got 20 wins, 8-8 SEC record (at worst), RPI will be in the 20's (at worst), 5 wins over ranked teams. The only question now is seeding. If UT does lose out, they'll be an 8 or 9 seed. Another win or two and they could go as high as 5 or 6.

UT needs 2 more wins just to be safe, IMO.

I'd feel better, on both counts, with one more win, even if it is the first round of the SEC tourney. The resume by itself looks fine, but there is still a pretty tight grouping of SEC bubble teams. I wouldn't want a 3 game losing streak to bring us back to the pack of also-rans.

Nobody else in the SEC is going to run off a substantial winning streak. Also, teams like Oklahoma State and Clemson are dropping like flies. UT is fine.

I think we're in, but it would be nice to have another road win against Georgia to build our road confidence.

any other wins are padding for our resume.

We're a 20-win team, with at least a .500 record in the SEC, and we're 15th in the RPI.
