Yeah, they beat Gonzaga, but meanwhile 1-1 vs ranked teams this year. Barnes will be Barnes. No way they are the #2 team in the country. Book it.
 
They’re pretty damn good. Grant Williams and Admiril shoffield are legit.

While Miss State hasn’t played anyone... like at all... could easily be better than UT this year.

Idk, that’s a bold statement. I’ll wait and see, but Tennessee is a tough team to put away. A lot of stamina.

Tennessee leads the SEC in both FG% at 52% on offense and FG% defense at 37%. I don't think one SEC team has led both categories this century.:cool:

I’d be willing to bet that’s verifiably false.
 
If Barnes couldn’t make a Sweet 16 with Kevin Durant, he’s not making it with Admiral Schofield.

Let’s put the breaks on the hype train. SEC play hasn’t even started. People see one loss and one win coming over Gonzaga and assume UT is top 5 caliber. On paper, you could probably even roll with it. But if UT is a stock, I’m selling.

More widespread talent that year, plus his supporting cast wasn’t all that great.

Tennessee is the elite team of the SEC
If you're are selling, you're losing money...
 
I honestly see UT winning both games, not even joking. We played really good against them and they still won by 10. Played like garbage against a talented Uk team lost by 13. Defense had some to do with it, but that was the worst game we’ve played all year. A lot of missed open shots.

The fact that Louisville made that a game reall reinforces my opinion.

2006-2007 Clemson basketball team started 17-0 and needed ACC play with 11 losses.
Who gives a crap about Clemson in 2006? It has zero to do with the Vols in 2019.
You should be pleased that the Vols are here to carry the conference pride after the way y'all muffed it.
Your going to need the Vols come tourney time, so step aside little fellow and hold our beer.

Meh, if you watched the game you’d see a stark difference in both our offense and defense. We were pretty lackluster against you guys. But I’m not discrediting UKs win.
 
I just think Tennessee is efficient and tough. Good IQ, and have some solid veteran athletic players. They’re a tough out.

Threads like these usual come back to bite. There's a reason why they are ranked so high. They're legit. Your opinion has sat alone on this board so far.

They are easily better than last year.
 
Come on op. Why you gotta say that. This thread will be bumped worse than the fake wife thread if we lose by double digits

It’s funny these orange clowns come outta nowhere when they finally have a good coach good team. How many final fours they have?...
 
There isn't a team I would put above them other than Michigan who is 4th in the coaches poll. Coaches are stupid.

It is all good. I think it is just a little nervous bravado.

No, it proves I have been around and active a long time and it also proves you have not. So, the stupid in all this is you call Vols (me) out for something I clearly do much better than you.
 
My Queen...no need to sully yourself with serfs. The Vol Knight (me) shall deal with this churlish oaf, and deal with him with extreme prejudice. All Kaintucky has now is history since the present day has them looking up at Tennessee.

You brought it up, I didn't. I just merely smacked you down. It doesn't make me better, but it obviously shows I'm smarter.:)

Smacked down? LOL... Hell you won’t even answer my question. Just more deflect...

Your banter is hollow, just as hollow as your intelligence...

You're the dumbass that implied that Vols just came to the board cause of our this year's team. I pointed out that it was a stupid statement for you to make considering I have been here longer and much more prolific than you. Then you basically turned your own statement against yourself with your sarcastic comment of me being here makes me better than you.
You have made yourself look like a clown.
