Don't feel confident about the next 3 games, Ala-bubba is playing well, at UK is always a tough game and A&M will be a challenge to beat on their court. 3 losses in last 4 games is a troubling trend, hopeful but not optimistic.

Another point on this, one of my favorite cappers I follow, he sets his own lines then bets according to his lines, has TN -2.
His thought process is our 3pt % defense is averaging holding opponents to under 26%. Bama turns the ball over a lot, and thinks we own the offensive glass. Also expects JJJ to play.

Bediako out for Alabama
“He did have a minor knee injury in the Auburn game,” Oats said Tuesday. “He played through it. He’s day-to-day. He’s gotten better every day since the Auburn game."

Doesn't sound like he is out. I'd guess he plays.

Not sure why my buddy, huge Alabama fan, and knows lots of people in Tuscaloosa, said he's out. Sounds like he'll play to me too

I think a lot of fans are getting their hopes up. Even when we are playing well, Bama is still better, IMO. They have more length, more athletic ability and play a style of offense that is conducive to scoring in the 80's regularly. We cannot do that consistently. Bama by 15+. Unfortunately.

My concern is the last two teams we played shot our eyes out from 3 and that's one of the ways Bama loves to play; Nate Oats coached teams always love shooting the 3.

I just don't get it at all.

They are trying to get the money 50/50 and care about outcome. But, why is that much money coming in on our Vols?

Yea, Vegas clearly anticipated money coming on Vols at a pick em’ or -1.5 so they went -2.5, and even still money is on Vols and they’re trying to get it 50/50. So as you ask, the question is why are sharps/big money on Tennessee?

Typically they’ve got a clue on injuries so makes you wonder if Bediako is out and JJJ & Phillips are playing? That’s one explanation. The other more general explanation is just that Top 10 teams on the road against ranked teams have not faired well this year, can’t remember the stat but it’s sub .500 iirc.
