where, as the two were we gonna get a better deal? All the 3s are going to be very good.

IMO, we got the worst of the 1 seeds.

The West.

Why would you think playing NC in Charlotte is a good idea?

And I'd LOVE to play dook at a neutral site.

Yes. I'm a bandwagon fan that went to UNC.

That just means you are a football bandwagon fan. Which really hasn't been working out to well lately, huh?

 

[BigPapaVol]

nobody had a better resume' period. we certainly had the weight of the media against us here. It started the second the clock said 0:00 against Memphis.

If we can't cut them down, I home Memphis destroys everyone.

Duke gets no penalty for losing in their semis, but we get hammered. That's fair.

Yep... makes perfect sense...:unsure:

Hooray Seth Picking Tennessee For Final Four!!!

 

[Volsguy12]

well atleast someone thinks we can make it to the final four..Seth picks us

 

[HawaiiVol]

Seth picks us to get the Final 4

 

[JAllen18]

Seth Davis has us as a final four team.

 

[VolsRule]

Ut got hosed by being in the UNC region. UT is better than #8.

 

[chavisut]

Clark picks all the 1 seeds

Not trying to sound like I've got some sort of inferiority complex or something, but I truly believe that if our jerseys read "Kentucky" or "Duke" or "North Carolina" across the front instead of Tennessee, I think our #1 RPI and #1 SOS would have been enough to get that #1 seed. I still can't believe this.

 

[volgolferarch]

Clark is acting like a goof...

 

[Vol423]

Bilas is a DUKIE but you are right is beloved ACC got 6 like the SEC

No. The ACC got 4 teams in the tournament. UNC, Duke, Clemson and Miami. Virginia Tech was on the bubble, but didn't make it (and they didn't deserve to make it).

 

[bam15]

Did Seth Davis Graduate from here? LOL

 

[UTGRADnNC]

Tennessee is 12-4 against teams in the field. Show me someone else that has that resume.

Just by looking at the brackets very quickly, I believe Duke is 6-2. Same percentage, right?

we aren't playing Duke in Charlotte. We'll be heavily represented there. In the end, to win this thing, we're going to have to beat the best teams. Of those at the top of the pile, I think UNC is least suited to winning it all because of their pathetic D. All of the other 1s would be deadly for us.

We would have no prayer in a bracket with UCLA or Kansas. We do with UNC.

Ut got hosed by being in the UNC region. UT is better than #8.

The only thing we got hosed on was were knoxville is located. they "committee" gave us 2 close venues to play at

I think the point is that 12 wins over tourney teams is more impressive than just 6.

Not anywhere even close to the Carolina Blue that will fill the Bobcats Arena.

Think you are kidding. I hope.

If that is right, it should say a whole lot that Tenn. played that many games against Tourney teams and DOOK didnt

My bad. Caught it and changed. I meant NC.
Agree to disagree on the region but it will be that much sweeter when we do it!

more Tennessee Love LOL

Duke lost at least 3 games to tournament teams. Pitt, UNC, and Clemson.
