Our BasketVols deserve more credit for their win today. #2 Houston lost back-to-back road games this week against unranked teams. #8 Arizona lost on the road against unranked Wazzou. #6 Kentucky lost at unranked A&M. #25 Texas lost at unranked West Virginia. #19 San Diego State had an unranked road loss.
Not to mention the unranked losses earlier this week for #1 Purdue, #23 Gonzaga, #3 Kansas, #21 Clemson, #9 Oklahoma (also lost to Kansas on the road), and #17 Colorado State.
Vols loss at Miss State was 1 of ~17 losses for ranked teams this week. Only 1 or 2 of those losses were for the ranked home team. The rest were on the road.
"Are we a Final Four team?" I'd say there's a darn good chance at least 1 of the teams that lost this week on the road to an unranked team will be in the Final Four. Could be all four. The Georgia game today never should have gotten to where it did, but our guys' comeback was what a Final Four caliber team does.
