Probably already posted somewhere but buckeyevol23 who are you rooting for this weekend? Not that it matters one way or the other I was just curious..

Nah I actually haven't posted it. In football it'd be UT but bball I don't really have a clear favorite between the two. I'm leaning slightly towards OSU but would be happy if UT won too. It just sucks cause I felt both could make a deep run in the tournament if they were in different brackets.

Hows OSUs incoming recruiting class looking. Tells you something about your school when you win a BCS game and have a crap class.

I would assume the Vols. I'm pretty sure the buckeye in his name is because he lives in Ohio (the Buckeye state), and not any underlying infatuation with tOSU

I just graduated from OSU last year so that's the other reason for the name. But the Vols, in football anyway, are my first team.

Ohhhhhh a football recruiting dig. Oh no you didn't!

Because I couldn't say anything about Laney boy and how he was taking UT to the promised land and every single person ate it hook, line and sinker.

Yeah, I've got a buddy down here who is the same way (well, except reversed). In basketball he is a UT fan (because he went there) but also cheers for OSU, but in football his passion has always been with OSU

Hey, you're a little off balance. Lean the other way just a bit.:)

Hey, we all knew it was a scam. We just went along with it to humor him.:)

Yeah my dad was an OSU alum too so they've always been my 2nd fav team even before I attended.

No worries. Drunk friends like to punch no matter who wins.

It should be a great game...both teams are deserving to be in the sweet sixteen and neither should overlook the other. The Vols have already beaten those that most consider to be the best, and the Buckeyes have carried a consistency through the season that comes from talent and good coaching.

As a Buckeye I expect to win...I expect to win the title for that matter.

If I were a Vol, I would expect the same.

Good Luck to you all

Gotcha, I used to be that way with UNC and UT, then when UNC had that comback on em in the '99 tournament my true colors were revealed, and I haven't felt the same about UNC since...The game should give you clarity as to where your heart lies.

Tennessee has better depth than OSU, as well as a bigger front court. Turner did have 9 assists and 9 rebounds, but he also had 9 Turnovers. Tennessee plays much better defense than GT, especially Prince, to make things worse for Turner. Look for early foul trouble, then an allout cluster**** on OSUs part.

Tennessee wins by double digits. GO Vols

That's funny because UNC was my favorite bball team cause I was born in NC and saw my first game there. I remember that '99 game. I still like UNC but they've won so much lately that they've moved well behind OSU and UT for me.

I know I sound like a huge bandwagon fan but I swear I'm not.:stop:

OSU definitely has a talented team but this is not a lock by any means. There is a reason that literally half of the teams in the Sweet 16 were underdogs at one point in time during the tournament. Anything can happen at this point. Ask Kansas, UNLV, Maryland, Oklahoma State, Texas, Clemson, Richmond, Georgetown, Vanderbilt, Pitt, Temple, Wisconsin, Marquette, New Mexico, Notre Dame, and Villanova how their games against the underdog went. If the Buckeye players are as cocky as some of their fans are and are already looking forward to their matchup against UNI/MSU, then they may have a rough Friday night.
