Have they announced who will be reffing the game yet?

Lol some of the posters on here call them rumparees.

Don't matter Kentucky will get all the questionable calls at home.

Hopefully I'm incorrect..

…not until Gametime.

This is true.

I usually don't bitch about officiating just getting mentally ready for everyone else to do it for me..

His team had an open date and he visited. Relax. Tay, Tay was not in attendance…

I already knew the first part. The second part... what? I assume your reference was to Taylor swift but I think the joke failed to land

Let me guess. You’re from the RF…

 

[jtipto10]

Pretty much hang out here

I wander to other places from time to time.

Based on post history I see you spend most of your time in lady vols forums. So... that's cool. Not sure what point you're trying to make

I’m watching SMU for the first time this year. He’s getting decent playing time, but man B.J. Edwards just doesn’t have it. Just watched him air ball a floater on his drive to the basket. He plays the 2 for them now. Doesn’t even bring the bal up the court. I’m not really sure how much he is offering them. A starting shooting guard averaging 4.8 PPG.

Hard to believe he was a 4* player on most recruiting services.

The days of VN drive by posters solving our offensive issues by claiming that BJE should be starting are days I hope never come again.

And Barnes took ridiculous heat by some of our fans for not playing the local kid more. I remember him getting reamed on sports radio last year for not giving BJ more minutes.

It’s that or whoever calls the game, usually both!

BJ's not a PG??? Here's my surprised face

Looking at you, Philly

 

[bleedingTNorange]

We will be 6-1 going into Rupp. If we get a decent whistle, Vols win it. KenLucky are the Mildcats, SOFT!

Weren’t you claiming 7-0?

 

[The Dog]

I was, 17-3 overall, but you have to make adjustments

Today he said that he “loved” Bruce because he drank some beer with him and then he took his mandatory, ignorant shot at Barnes. He might be the dumbest caller on the radio. Certainly one of the drunkest.

Yeah, he is so detached from reality.

 

[orangemadam]

Going on a limb here, we are staring at very possible 15-3 SEC record. We
will beat Ky or Bama at their place. (most likely not Rupp)

I don't think anybody is going 15-3 this year. The league is not great but it's deep enough to give every team a bunch of tough road games. We have played two. Lost one and somehow survived the other. I think 14-4 wins it this year. 13-5 might put us in a tie. Like someone said, hold serve at home. There always seems to be that one game that we drop against an inferior team at home that comes out of nowhere.

For sure, just scared of @The Dog jinx now lol

I don’t think 13-5 puts you in a tie. I’m just being honest, I don’t see how Auburn loses 4 more SEC games. If they beat Miss State and Ole Miss on the road, I think they’re 14-4 at the very worst.

It could happen, but I’m definitely not expecting it. Besides winning a game we aren’t expected to, we’d also have to be perfect and not drop one we shouldn’t, which if a really tall task in CBB.

We’ll find out soon on Auburn, their toughest stretch is coming up…
@ Bama L
@ MSST
vs. Vandy
@ Ole Miss
vs. Bama
@ Florida


Then 6 of their last 7 they’re likely double digit favorites with the 1 they aren’t being their game here in Knoxville. As you said it’s hard to see worse than 14-4 for them, which could make our H2H huge with them.
