Imo it is a toss-up because I don't think either one gets past the 2nd round in the NCAA tourament. Both will enter the tourney as a low seed and get drilled by a higher seeded team in round 2. This will in all likelyhood be the first Pat Summit team to not get to the sweet 16.
In the long haul I think Bruce's team is in better shape and will rebound nicely after this season. AF the Lady Vols, I don't have such high expectations over the next 3 years. The reason for this gloomy forecast is that I believe this year's freshmen class will turn out to basically be a bust over their careers at UT. They haven't demonstrated anything to make me believe that they will suddenly "see the light" and begin playing like Lady Vol teams of the past. Hope I'm proven wrong.
