My point has always been consistency. The vols could beat anyone but could also lose to anyone. They have an opportunity with two weak teams left. Let's see if they can take advantage. That's my point.Florida is the only team that blew us out and we barely lost at Auburn. Still, Auburn is not unbeatable, wished they had to play at TBA. But, yes, Auburn should be #1 and should be the #1 seed. Vols are still a top 5 team, so what's your point ?
In the past few weeks a tweetX was posted quoting Barnes on all the things that Mashack contributes to this team. If anyone one knows it and can find it, I would really appreciate it. I looked without luck. @MoCo_Vol
You're being circular again. You already said you no longer consider Florida a Tier 1 team. By definition that makes Auburn's home loss to UF a loss to an inferior team.I don't consider either of their losses to be to inferior teams. Vandy and KY are inferior teams.
Who have they lost to that is so bad ? UK twice, for some reason, just a bad match-up for this team, hope the Vols miss 'em in the SEC Tourney. Still, UK is a NCAA TourneyMy point has always been consistency. The vols could beat anyone but could also lose to anyone. They have an opportunity with two weak teams left.

It’s reaches a point you can’t even respect the stubbornnessYou're being circular again. You already said you no longer consider Florida a Tier 1 team. By definition that makes Auburn's home loss to UF a loss to an inferior team.
You also said elite teams don't lose to inferior teams. If you've changed your mind about Florida being an elite team in the last 30 minutes, then how do you compartmentalize them getting blown out by an "inferior" team (Vols).
You're suffering from confirmation bias. By only highlighting the facts that support your beliefs and ignoring the ones that don't and building a whole construct around the idea that the Vols, a Top 5 team that are set to be a Top 4 team, are not elite.
It's lunacy
inbreeding. inbreeding made them become a Bama fan.I’m in Minneapolis for the weekend. I went to the Mall of America this morning and I saw 2 Vols that gave me a “Go Vols”
And when I was in line getting lunch at the food court, I had someone say “Roll Tide” and I asked “What made you become a Bama fan?” His response: “I was born and raised in Minneapolis but I became a fan of Alabama in 2010.”
That quote says it all. Bunch of Saban fans in that fanbase.
I was watching the game in my hotel room and I let out a huge scream when Shack hit that buzzer beater. That’s a memory that will stick with me for a long time.

I'm not being circular at all. Do you think losing to Duke and FL are on the same level as getting beat by Vandy and KY twice?You're being circular again. You already said you no longer consider Florida a Tier 1 team. By definition that makes Auburn's home loss to UF a loss to an inferior team.

Huge congrats brother!Had my fourth child yesterday evening. I was unable to go to the game, so my dad and brother in law went (so pumped they got to see it).
But this is the best part… I’m watching it on my phone in the room, so when Mashack hit the game winner, I went nuts. As I am going nuts the nurses rush into the room due to my screaming, obviously to make sure my wife and son were alright. I assured them everything was fine, just got excited because Tennessee hit a game winner against Alabama. A story that the little guy will hear one day! Go Vols!!

Man, you are right. But, give me Auburn, Florida and/or Bama in the SEC and I like our chances better than UK. Why ? I don't know, just one of those teams that are a bad match-up for a really good Vols team. Then again, we may just bust their a$$, next time. I'm just saying, I would prefer not to play 'em, again. I've been wrong many times about this team, just not as wrong as @InVOLuntary has beenYou mean, Kentucky hopes they miss us.
Auburn has had one HUGE advantage all season, zero growing pains. They added 2 top 100 freshmen to a roster nearly older than the OKC Thunder.
Florida also returned almost everyone.
We’ve had to learn and build chemistry together as the season played out.
