Who do you want? Houston or Purdue

[RockiesTop22]

This one’s pretty easy for me.

Rematch in elite 8 with Purdue- crush them without their giant.

Doesn’t hurt that they are not the better team of the two either..

Either way- let’s make our first Final Four!!

 

[Col_Cathcart]

110% Purdue

 

[VOLifornia]

I was there! I want Purdue so it’s hopefully not 8 on 5.

 

[Dro]

Purdue is an easier matchup and getting revenge, I feel good with either one with how we're playing right now tho.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

My gut just says Purdue.
But at this point it doesn't matter.
We play like we did tonight and we can beat either of them. Just have to not settle for the 3/dribbling around, and take it to the basket.

We do that and I have enough faith in our D that we will end up with more points than either Houston or Purdue.

Would absolutely love for Barnes to make it to the final four here at Tennessee.
Would be another milestone for this program.

Let them play it out and decide it for us.
We can just sit back and enjoy this glorious Kensucky a$$ whooping we just dished out.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Purdue, want the Vols to get some revenge on that team

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Take anyone on. It’s for a shot to the Final Four.

I think it’s probably Purdue if you make me pick based on paper. Houston defense would be a tough matchup, but would be an epic clash.

 

[VOLtaism]

Let them settle all scores this season, PURDUE.

 

[YankeeVol]

SIMPLE. Purdue.

 

[VolArmy74]

Purdue. They rely more on 3s and the dome hurts 3 point shooting teams. But mostly to get some revenge for their past ref fueled wins.

 

[VOLtaism]

Any UK fans want to sell their final 4 tickets, we know you bought them?

 

[OrangeAllDay]

Purdue. I was at the music city bowl robbing. We’ve been robbed by the refs in every postseason match up we’ve had with them. In 2 different sports. I wanna send them home crying

 

[VolCalls]

If Houston beats Purdue, tickets will be $10 on Sunday. No reason not to flood the place with orange.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

I want Barnes to bish slap the fat bowler that coaches Purdoo.

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Purdue. I think Houston wins, but I’d love to play Purdue with no Lurch to bail them out.

 

[Tenacjim]

According to KenPom, Purdue is VERY similar to Ky. One spot higher overall, slightly better offensive efficiency, slightly worse defensive efficiency. But with KY out, they would snap up a ton of tickets and have a pretty large contingent of fans.

Houston is #11 in OE, and #1 in DE. Basically a flip of Florida’s numbers (and similar to TN).

Play like we did today, and we could beat either one. Just beat who ever they put in front of us!

GBO!

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Perdue. I don't think the refs will give them 45 free throws this year.

 

[ochocinco]

I think Purdue will win tonight. They looked really really good vs McNeese. Balanced and their own ZZ in Smith. I’d feel better vs Houston.

 

[zeppelin128]

We owe Purdue for a whole lot of bs in multiple sports.

We keep playing like we did tonight, we'll beat anyone in the country.

Jalen Wright scored that TD on 4th down. I'm still pissed about that game.

 

[Voltopia]

No clue and no vote from me, but watching the Houston-Purdue game right now reminds me of how much I hate seeing Fletcher Loyer again. They let him travel repeatedly in last year's game. Don't like thinking about dealing with players that get that kind of treatment.

Still though, doesn't mean I know which one I'd want. Whoever Barnes prefers is the only answer I could have. I would imagine that's Purdue but what I do I know.

 

[C-south]

Purdue is getting absolutely mauled and getting no calls.

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

What kind of crowd would we be looking at if Purdue loses tonight? Kentucky and Purdue fans packed the arena tonight. If both of those go home, are we looking at a half empty arena Sunday?

 

[Flogballs]

I’d rather play Purdue and their crowd than Houston

 

[VOLifornia]

Watching this game …. I so want them, and know they will have the crowd. They don’t have that DAWG mindset and no Edey! We need them!

 

[SGMVols]

Purdue is the easier matchup basketball-wise but it will be close to a true road game if that’s who we get
