The Official #9 Tennessee vs. Texas A&M SEC Championship Game Thread, 1:00 PM ET, ESPN

[VolsSportsFan]

Lunardis argument was “I had UK and Auburn above UT all year and they’ll stay there”

Lol his answer was pretty much "No because I'd have to change my work and that's hard."

 

[i2amavol]

I there anywhere to see them get the trophy/cut down the nets?!?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

It’s going to be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT for me not to pick UT to win it ALL when filling out my bracket later

I put money on them to earlier. The only thing better than championships. Are money and championships.

 

[Switch 625]

This trophy presentation is a beautiful sight!

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Happy and proud of this squad!
They have more work to do!

There's that doofus lunardi

Ridiculous comments: “ TN wasn’t on second place, tied for second. They willl not leap Big East champ. They were behind KY and Auburn all year so it doesn’t matter.” That is so ridiculous. I hope he is wrong as i would think we would be the 6th team overall @ worst, instead of 9th.
It’s all about matchups so we will have to go
through. Duke, Kansas, Baylor, Zags, Arizona , KY, etc.

It’s on ESPN+.

 

[Baulder]

The trophy presentation being on the app is just bull crap, Vilanova's entire presentation was televised last night and now I need to pay extra to watch ours on your garbage online platform?

 

[UTSuave’]

3 out of 3

Reverse psychology my guy

 

[chuckiepoo]

Did Lunardi really say TN is a 3?

Doesn’t matter what that ass wipe sez.

 

[johnboyhunter]

He can kiss the white tail of the whitetail in your avatar too!

Too bad I only got the head mounted.

 

[VolArmy74]

UK was up 4-2. That's all I know of.

Miss State was up 2-0.

 

[MAD]

Coming up next in the ESPN app…

 

[casetopia]

If only we had played ky once, twice, or three times to see who the better team was.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Should be a number 1 seed.

 

[ALStateLineVol]

The most ridiculous statement I have ever heard it’s like saying winning doesn’t matter lol

Could you imagine what would've happened if we had lost? He would probably dropped us to a 6 seed.
It would be an absolute travesty not to be on the 2 line, but regardless he gave the team "bulletin board" material.
No matter the seed, go win this thing!!!

 

[johnboyhunter]

Good thing Lunardi does not make the final decision. He’s just an analyst and all that matters is what the selection committee decides. Love to see it throw it back in his face when we get a 2 seed.

 

[Jpcisco]

Sankey looked absolutely miserable....

 

[djohnnyg]

Lunardi is a fat pos.

 

[VAVol85]

I get Auburn. They won the regular season (by one game). They have a better record. Even if our strength of schedule is quite a bit better, I could see the argument for them. Kentucky? I just don't see it. I don't personally know anything about Duke's year.

Duke was beaten by a marginal NC team in their final regular season game and beaten by VT in the ACC championship. If they are a 2 seed it is based on K’s reputation and really bad ACC competition this year.

 

[JCP201]

Did Barnes steal Lunardi’s girl or what? F him!

What the freak? So he says we are tied for two-- but we have the better record with harder teams. What is the point of playing great teams if you aren't getting credit for beating them?

 

[chuckiepoo]

It’s going to be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT for me not to pick UT to win it ALL when filling out my bracket later

Gotta have a handful of brackets..

 

[casetopia]

Sankey looked absolutely miserable....

He was having bama withdrawals.

 

[vols 30]

Doesn’t matter what that ass wipe sez.

More reason to stay hungry

Last time Tennessee won the SEC championship in basketball? 1979.
