It's going to be Butler

[rpostr]

If we make it to the final four.

I think this is the best we could have hoped for. Butler is a dangerous team but I think Kansas St. was better and would have won if it wasn't for the double overtime game against Xavier tiring them.

It's gonna be a home game for them, but we have to focus on MSU right now... regardless, I'm glad it's butler, I think they might have some depth issues

They did look tired at the end of that game. Steal after steal after steal to close out that game...I definitely like our chances against Butler if we do advance. We actually have a half court offense and defense this year unlike the last time we played them.

Lets get by MSU first..

We played and beat Butler 2 years ago in the NCAA Tournament, 76-71 in OT.

It's a different Butler team just like it's a different Tennessee team. Let's make sure we get by Michigan State first

They enforce their will on tempo against everyone. That's why they are in the Final Four. Vols could handle that and control the tempo in their favor, in my opinion

 

[Volfootball55]

Michigan St is going to be a tough game, as well as Butler IF we make it there. I don't think UT could ask for a better situation though, we can beat both of those teams and get into the National Championship.

UT has been paved a pretty feasible road to the National Championship game. I'm not complaining one bit though

It really is amazing with how much complaining everyone, including myself, did about our seed that we have as good of a road as you could ask for to a NC.

I disagree with that sentiment. You either win your games or you don't. Nothing's been paved for UT.

It's not like the run Florida had. I mean they played an 11 seed in the Final Four.

I'm not saying that UT is playing the easiest road to the NC ever. I am saying they had a favorable draw so far(as far as matchups are concerned) and they have taken care of business

True. I didn't say UT has had an easy run so far though. I meant a very manageable path

 

[SpringBokVol]

I understand.

And playing OSU then MSU and hopefully Butler is not easy by any stretch of the imagination.

I would really like to be Mid-West champs though and be the furthest advancing team from the SEC.

I want to make it to the Final Four and see DeMarcus Cousins go home after this round. That would be perfect
