I don't think the ZZ injury really impacted the ceiling of this team but it does lower floor.

Right now, I'd say Sweet 16. Might reconsider when I see Potential R32 matchup...

Really hard to see this team doing much damage without ZZ. He impacts the game so much on both ends. I said 1-1 but if the round of 32 opponent lacks perimeter quickness (like we do now) we can win that one too.

I think 1-1 is most likely as we seem to be limping to the finish line with all the injuries after running really strong for the first 2/3’s of the race. Real shame this group couldn’t have stayed healthy to see how well they could have done. Hopefully they surprise us and make it to the second weekend!

ZZ was a massive piece to this team. Losing him was doom for the Vols. It's like the Bulls losing Lonzo Ball. ZZ just a little guy...but was critical to teams success. Can't believe this team was ranked #2 in the country at one point. An embarrassing collapse.

I feel sweet 16 vibes. Of course this is difficult to say without knowing that match-up, but I think Tennessee has been playing good recently without ZZ. Yeah, we lost to Missouri but we didn't play bad and they are a good team

Tennessee hs to learn to finish games.
