I understand the urge, but we look a lot better when we don't storm the court.
I am assuming you thought it was a dumb post b/c Tennessee Pride didn't elaborate on anything that was said about the game between he and his huge KU fan during the beer drinking, hanging out session.
Congratulations to the Vols:
Its one thing to loose to a team who just cannot miss, but Tennessee outplayed and out-hustled us which is very disappointing. You could just see the Vols playing with more heart than Kansas. Our guys got up 14-6 and expected Tennessee to just lay down like everyone else. Bruce Pearl did a great job getting his guys prepared for this (although I think waving the giant "T" flag was a bit over the top) and for the first time I believe Bill Self was out-coached.
I went to the game and enjoyed Knoxville. TB is by far the largest and one of the nicest arenas I've been to. One of the most notable things about the fans is that you could tell you are all genuinely proud of your team. Most schools are more concerned with booing Kansas fans and jeering our players than they are with cheering on their own team. I wasn't used to that. The group I was with felt like we were almost ignored.
All-in-all I think Tennessee will win the SEC. If they play with that much intensity and hustle there isn't a team in the nation Tennessee isn't capable of beating. I really think you all will take the SEC.
On a side note, I did run into one trashy fan in Tennessee who was very disrespectful and shouted the oh-so-original "ROCK CHALK SUCK A COCK" at us. He was wearing a Kentucky sweatshirt, though.
