I hope Murray State sux this year. They have been good in the past. I'll try my best to bring home a win.

they could be a tough team, lost by 4 in OT to Cincinatti, we'll be lucky to get out with a win, this will be more like an away game than a home game too.

Murray State is one of the better programs in the OVC. They are a mid-major, but they are a mid-major with confidence and can beat a team like Tennessee if the Vols aren't ready. Of course, Im sure the Vols will be ready and will leave Nashville with a win.

One thing I no longer worry about is us not being prepared. Coach Pearl will always have us ready to go.

My concern with Tennessee after the UL game last week is that they seemed to run out of steam late in the second half and couldn't hit the shots. It was during this time that the Cajuns went on a 31-9 tear. To operate a fast paced offense and crushing defense like Pearl wants to run, you have to be in excellent condition. The first thing to go as a team starts to get fatigued is the shooting percentage. The Vols only shot 46% in the game (25 of 54). And the worst of it was during the time while they were blowing their 21 point lead.

Also, the team needs to hit more free throws.

If this team can avoid fatigue and increase their shooting percentage before conference play starts, I think this TN team will turn some heads during conference play.

If Tennessee shoots 46% on a consistent basis, they will win plenty of games. Percentages continue to fall. 46 will probably place you in the top 1/3 of the SEC at the end of the year.

Conditioning isn't an issue. It's depth.
