3 seed is indefensible…shame on selection committee!!

[JohnWardForever]

Texas A&M losing out to a 18-14 Michigan team is absolutely criminal

DEAD ON!!! Looks like the ncaa DELIBERATELY rewarded JUWAN'S Bad Behavior.... chickenshat organization.

I heard Dumblardi explaining why they are a 3. He couldn't (wouldn't) explain it. I read between the lines and came up with...In order for Tennessee to get a higher seed, we would have to go back and redo all the numbers and...we don't want to do that so the Vols get the 3. The dude even said that he has never seen any effects for a Sunday game on past seedings.

 

[peerless98]

VOLS should be 1 or 2!! They earned it!!

and we are not even the top #3 seed lol

 

[rickyyrs]

Duke getting a 2 is laughable.

Vols beat Kentucky 2 out of 3 times. Kentucky a 2 seed. Tennessee a 3 seed. Tennessee SOS is better i believe.

 

[JohnWardForever]

They don’t care. The selection committee SEC reps are from Kentucky and Alabama. They did their job

YEP! Put bammer in over A&M!!

 

[volman128]

Tennessee isn't the same team that lost to nova. I see UT winning this time by 12.

We will have to tune a lot of things up. It won't be a 'cakewalk' against Nova, regardless of who wins.

 

[peerless98]

Michigan getting in with 17 wins is a joke as well

Vols beat Kentucky 2 out of 3 times. Kentucky a 2 seed. Tennessee a 3 seed. Tennessee SOS is better i believe.

BE VERY Interesting to see the AP & Espn final rankings........ Tennessee prolly #8!!!!!!

CAKEWALK was not my term. 12 points = ahead by 6 and padding at the foul line.

Selection committee needs a dose of..
Vengeance.

Dang. I thought it was 18 and it was a joke. What’s next? They going to give Juwan Howard the Heisman next December?

 

[LSG410EC83]

Should this even be a surprise to any of us. We are Tennessee. We know better. Aint gonna change anything though. Hard to swallow. Now the guys have a chip on their shoulder to go out and prove they deserved better. Look forward to them taking each opposing team down, one at a time. Great to be a Tennessee Vol.

3. Tennessee gets jobbed with No. 3 seed
Despite winning the SEC Tournament and entering Sunday's Selection show as winners of 15 of its final 17, Tennessee drew a No. 3 seed in the South -- arguably the most obviously under-seeded team

 

[volz2wallz]

I don’t mind being a 3 as much as I hate being the 2nd ranked #3…our resume stands up against anyone in the SEC.

And stands up to anyone in country..

 

[Eastknox865]

That Villanova game was 3 of the season I believe. We have dramatically improved since then.

 

[Rockytoprowdy]

So which team is a two, and which is a 3? Left or right?

 

[orangemadam]

We just need to go out and win a few to show all the politician bracket committee.

 

[FranklinVFL]

If this pisses the team off enough to go out and prove the world wrong and get to the final 4.....well, I'll be two more wins away from happy.

But seriously, if this puts the proverbial chip on their shoulder to go out and prove this committee wrong for a DEEEEEP run in the tourney, then so be it.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

I hope vol nation lights up joe lunardi. That absolutely shows that he knows nothing. How can you sit on national tv and say that the head to head match ups don’t matter?

 

[FranklinVFL]

And stands up to anyone in country..View attachment 439270

Notice we are the only one of those teams listed in single digits on each measure.

 

[cncchris33]

Committee President just said that Quad 1 wins and Conference Tournaments mattered in their decision-making process. He said that with a straight face.

 

[Butch s]

And stands up to anyone in country..View attachment 439270

We are the ONLY team on this list who is single digits in every ranking, and the only team with single digit strength of schedule

 

[72 KPT VOL]

I picked us to win SEC tournament weeks ago. Been thinking FF very possible. With this obvious under-seed, team will be strongly motivated. Now thinking NC possible. Let’s go win it all!. Just go 6-0 and prove those committee as idiots.

 

[volman128]

Vols beat Kentucky 2 out of 3 times. Kentucky a 2 seed. Tennessee a 3 seed. Tennessee SOS is better i believe.

Better RPI and SOS.
