Louisville always has athletes. Can't get down early and can't come out cold at the start of the 2nd half. Lots and lots of fouls. We may learn a lesson which shows our weaknesses early.

Gotta get this because a loss in this one will hurt rpi. Whereas house money with Kansas. We get credit for what they accomplish the rest of the way. Lose respectable and hardly anything happens to us. We win and thats going to be a major feather in good wins come March.

We're presently at #3 rpi. Didn't realize we have wins over 2 top 50rpi teams. Louisville at #121 because they started with rpi 200+ teams. Guess Barnes knows what he's doing on that subject. Win boys!!

TN or TN fans were once interested in Chris Mack. Were there ever talks with him about coaching at TN? Surely he would have been preferred over Donnie Tyndall.

Yeah both him and Bruce Pearl were masters of rpi. Which more comes from being very choosy of which non power conference teams you schedule. Teams like Louisiana will finish 1st or 2nd in their league. Bruce often said early on when it comes to scheduling. You have to avoid bottom feeders. Florida a couple times got burnt by having 20 plus wins but several were against 200 or worse. Rick is trying to fo the same. Don't shy away from the big boys and stay away from bottom feeders and if you get a fair share of wins youll have your shot to get where you want to be.

T-minus 30 minutes. Pumped for this game and the throwbacks. Vols 75, Louisville 67

We are dominating them and still losing due to junk 3 balls.

Keep playing this way and we will cruise to a win

Hopefully Louisville cools off from three-point range. I like the quality of shot we're getting so far.

Fulkerson is a shot blocking machine.

Bone getting some confidence.

Williams is just good.

They've hit a couple really tough 3's.
