Sports Illustrated Says Tennessee Among Magic Eight To Win National Championship

This team can't string together two decent games to make a deep tourney run.

They get a match up against some good guards and I'd expect them more likely to be one and done than an Elite Eight run.

Do we have the ability to? Sure...offense in rhythm with our defense is deadly. Has that happened for more than 1 game this season...no. So to win three games to get there...like the article says, we need magic.

Watch our offense. Every time someone touches the ball, the first thing they look to do is pass. Do we not coach squaring up, triple threat position, and look to go to the hole. I really don’t get it.

SI saying that Johnson and Springer have a good chance to lead Tennessee to NC if they continue leading Tennessee and that the defense is top notch but that the offense needs to keep developing and that Fulkerson must find his game again offensively to complement Johnson and Springer.

Lol...pipedream

This team shows flashes but they don’t put it together on the floor. If they could put it all together on the floor on both sides of the court....I pity the other team.

SI jinx doesn’t even require being on the cover anymore.

I didn’t know they were still in business

Early exit in the SEC tournament and the NCAA.

This team is 100% capable of beating anybody but I’ve seen nothing that shows me they’re capable of playing 6 straight good games. Unfortunately they’ll be lucky to make the Sweet 16

How dare they say something good about Tennessee.......Tennessee fans? LOL......

I honestly believe some of these articles are about getting a rise out of fans when really they know better. What's the word I'm looking for.....umm click bait ....nah not click bait.....umm yeah that's it click bait. They know Tennessee fans are so desperate for anything positive in any of our sports teams that we would click the link till we starved to death. We click the link and sit and read the words, make a grunting noise like a caveman, start drooling on ourselves, and believe every word.

Is it possible the highs and lows are a result of such a young roster and they will develop more consistentsy throughout the season?
That’s the hopeful wrinkle ironing by Barnes I alluded to—but as we saw today in Baton Rouge, poor post play, a defensive scheme we couldn’t solve in 40 minutes and several freshman mistakes in ball handling, passing and court awareness. March approaches. A bit too quickly for this Volunteer team, I’m afraid.
