It's hard to beat the same team 3 times in one season, which Florida almost proved today. If UK plays the way they did these last two games, they could go down. Either way, they are the #1 overall seed at this point.

First time Vandy has been to the SEC tournament finals since 1951...i think that's also the last time they won it

True. They are #1 overall seed regardless.

If Vandy shoots the 3 as well as they did today, they will do more than just upset kentucky.

Either way UK will be the overall #1 seed. They're really just playing for another piece of hardware tomorrow.

Much bigger game for Vandy as an upset could give them a big boost in tournament seeding.

Tennessee and culture in the same sentence. Irony at its finest.

Again, because "volunteers" is such a great name for a sports team compared to "bulldogs, eagles, falcons, gators, tigers, wildcats". etc.

It's based on the state's nickname; one it earned due to a huge/massive number of people enlisting during the war of 1812 (and i think either the Mexican-American War or the Spanish American war)



Not saying through that any one of these names are better than any others.

I actually do know that TrueOrange, it's a pretty cool thing imo.

I just don't see why it had to be brought up.

I actually find it pretty neat that you can tie your nickname in to your heritage. I have a couple of gents in my family tree that served in Dyer's 1st Regiment of Mounted Gunmen, and were killed in the Battle of New Orleans.
