...we fell to Vandy. I hope our boys are focused and keyed up for tonight's game. According to the preview on ESPN for tonight's game:

"...Pearl planned to show the tape of last season's 78-77 defeat at Auburn on Monday.

"We got whooped, and our guys will hear about that," said Pearl, whose team knocked off the Tigers 94-85 in the SEC tournament semifinals March 14...

...The Tigers are trying to bounce back from having their season-high four-game win streak snapped in Saturday's 80-71 loss to visiting South Carolina. Brendon Knox had a career-high 22 points off the bench in Auburn's conference opener.

The center has averaged 15.6 points over the last five games, more than six above his season mark (9.3). Fellow senior and leading scorer DeWayne Reed (15.9 ppg) has averaged 18.3 points and 6.7 assists in the past three contests.

Tennessee leads the series 68-37, but the teams have split their past eight meetings. The Volunteers hold a 42-7 advantage in Knoxville, winning 12 of 14 at Thompson-Boling.''


Let's Go Vols!!

If I am not mistaken Vandy was pretty decent and went a couple games deep in the NCAA tournament.... But yeah yeah always a chance for a let down after a big win. Thankfully this team didn't let that happen. They look like they are getting better without the 3(4) Amigos.

we looked asleep still until the last 4 minutes of the first half. however, the floodgates opened the second half...and auburn finally cooled off from behind the arc.
