Same with Kansas...I don't think it's a disadvantage on Tennessee. I think in the SEC they favor teams to maximize their tournament seats. Several teams would have most likely not made the tournament had they not beaten the vols. KY was likely missing the tournament without both their wins.
As for today, they called fouls on Uros and reviewed all of them to try and make a case for flagrant. Uros has a target on his back, some deserved. The officials were absolutely doing what they could to keep Duke close. I don't think there was a concerted effort to insure a Duke win but they wanted them close enough where that had a chance.
I think they like to keep games close for TV ratings, but I dont think they try and determine winners.I don't think it's a disadvantage on Tennessee.

Ya’ll say what you want about Plav, but it needed to be done.
Also, it wouldn’t surprise me to see duke win it all next year. They know what it takes now.
One and dones suck for program development/stability...I think smart coaches should only take them to augment a already good roster. You load up 3-4 of them on one class and it ain't gonna work out.Bad news for them: their 3 freshmen may be gone because they are likely first round picks. Good news for them: they have a great class coming in. So, they will have to re-learn with new freshmen.
