Sweet 16 would be?

I feel like I needed to make a poll for this.
Underachieved?
Overachieved?
Right on Par?

Hard to say right now. Maybe a a little premature on the poll. Will Ament be healthy? Estrella?

I think Sweet 16 is Right on Par. Even with Estrella and Ament healthy I just don't see this team making it past the round of 16.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Given our investment in the program, right on par.....

I hit like by mistake, they will be lucky to make it to the sweet 16 in my opinion. I have never watched a Tenn. team in the last few years that can blow games more than this year.

It’s not just UT, it’s college basketball in the NIL age

Overachiever for sure. They're down by 10 right now to a 17-15 Auburn. It's hard to watch...

Once all of Pettiford’s quit falling, Auburn was toast.

I ate my words on this one and was glad to do so. Still uncertain about the NCAA tourney ,but enjoying the ride.

Right on Par. They just have to get more scoring output from the guard position and they could be dangerous. Its been rough at times this year. Just not enough overall. They are a little different with a healthy Ament so it may be all about the matchups.

We lack a lot of 3 point shooting to be a significant threat on the outside. One thing I have seen this team do is pass it in to someone at the goal and dunking it Something that has been sorely lacking from past teams.

 

[i2amavol]

They just need to get hot, and they can beat anyone (and everyone). No reason to dislike their chances, if Ament and JG stay healthy.

 

[IUGradVol]

This team is so Jekyll and Hyde. Which isn’t a great recipe at tourney time. Hence why I voted Overachieving. Will be thrilled if it happens though!

What? ZZ and Okpara made a living off lob pass dunks last year

I’ll go with a par with a healthy Ament.

But if each game they could hit free throws and not have a bad half, they would be underachieving if only got to sweet 16.

 

[walkenvol]

Like every team, when you take away their best player they become less effective which explained our late season slump. With a healthy Ament, we become a really tough out when we limit turn overs, and make the free throws & bunnies at a high percentage. Do those things consistently along with JG finding his shooting touch again and I like our chances to go 16 and beyond. I know, that’s a lot that has to come together but the potential is clear to me.

Sweet 16 would be........................a miracle.

If we can play a full 40 mins like the last 10 we played yesterday we can play with anyone in the country. I think Sweet Sixteen is right on par.
