What do you think will be the outcome of Saturday's game?
Note: NOT WHAT YOU WANT TO HAPPEN, but what you think will happen.

After seeing the replies, we seem to agree for the most part. With this team, we just can't tell which team will show up for the game. And that is the point of the post. CM is not able to get consistent play for his guys. And when they are off, he can't fix the problem.

If Barton scores 10 points or more and Tennessee plays defense like last 2 games, Tennessee wins big.. Tennessee 78 Missouri 62.. Missouri in SEC has lost 6 road games!!!

Oh gosh.... Everytime we start talking like this UT loses

I THINK that we will win... Just not sure with this team. Official pick is Mizzou by 5, going for the reverse jinx here. GBO

I wish I could talk to the team and just plead them to play this hard all the time. If Tennessee plays that hard and with that kind of desire, mainly on defense, they can be one of the better defensive teams in the entire country.

If UT plays that kind of defense the rest of the year they can beat ANYONE. That aggression and confidence is contagious and this team can be scary good when they are aggresive and confident.

I have been very impressed the last two games. If we run Mizzou out of the building and UGA loses to LSU, I believe we will be in the SEC final vs Florida. That would be fun to watch if we continue with the current mindset.

I predict that Haith and Martin fight to the death at half court, winner gets to keep his team another year.

I think the team will come in to this game cocky, after blow away wins against Vandy & Auburn. I think they will take shots that are low percentage shots and that we will fall behind.

Martin will not make any adjustments and we end up losing.

We are eliminated in the 1st game of the S.E.C. tourney.

We do not make the NCAA! Hart fires Martin! Hart waits until mid April to hire a new coach! The new coach will be the head coach of the NCAA 2014 tourney Cinderella team!

In the past, George Mason, VCU, Butler, etc. have gone far in the NCAA tourney. A coach of a team such as this will be hired at U.T. by Hart....

If the outside shots are falling we could win really big. A lot easier to play hard on the defensive side when you feel good and are confident. If the outside shots aren't falling then it could be a long afternoon in Knoxville.

Possible that we're seeing a young coach LEARN how to produce some intensity in his players.
He's using the BUBBLE talk this season.
Don't think that was the strategy last year and it showed.
They'll be INTENSE Saturday. Might even be a blow out.

It depends on which Jordy shows up. If he doesn't play with the team and only wants to shoot 3s, it'll be close. If he comes out a team player, and Maymon & Stokes keep it up, if the they drive the paint and can draw early fouls, with some inside out play, they can beat Mizzou handily.

My wife called it out last night. She was seeing much better teamwork. They could even go a coupla three games in the dance. It all depends on them playing team ball instead of "Watch me show my stuff". She hates that.

I said this a few days ago..

Showing them bracket projections, playing one shining moment videos before their last 3 games, singing at press conferences.

Who is this guy?

Definitely something different.
Has them playing BALL in March.
What more can we ask for?
Could the YOUNG coach be LEARNING?

Idk, but that's what I've been saying, let's see what happens before calling for his head.

Tennessee isn't the place to learn on the job, but reality is that's what he's doing. He has progressed every year, assuming he makes the dance this year, if he does that I'm not sure you can make a change.

I've done my share of crying for decapitation, but JR's made it pretty clear dad won't come if Cheek is here.
Wouldn't support replacing him unless it was a Gregg, Ben or Buzz.
Getting a PG next season and looking like Stokes might return.
Who knows.
