    The Daily Dribble: Mississippi

    That, ladies and gentleman, was just what the doctor ordered. And although it wasn’t actually ordered by an M.D., Jordan McRae put on a 3-point shooting clinic as Tennessee (13-7, 4-3) downed the Ole Miss Rebels (14-6, 5-2) 86-70. Three Vols other than McRae scored in double figures with Jeronne Maymon and Josh RIchardson both adding 16, while…

  • The Daily Dribble: Florida

    Like a communications major (read: me) on a math test, Tennessee had no answer for Florida on Saturday.

Offensive Offense/ Florida’s Defense Teams have…

    I hope everyone had a nice holiday. Here’s to a promising and profitable 2014 for you and your loved ones. Going into Monday night’s game against the Vols, Virginia boasted one of the nation’s top defenses, allowing just over 54 points per game. Apparently, nobody bothered to tell Josh Richardson and Tennessee. Richardson poured in…

And, in true tournament style, the tougher team won the game as Wichita State gutted out the 70-61 win. A Tougher Breed, indeed. THE BAD Tennessee’s Shooting The three most efficient shots…
