This would have been a good game to be at, @Thunder Good-Oil , I'm jealous.

 

[I4Vols]

For all those recruits looking for a hot place to play

Just think about doing that in front of 21,678

 

[HippieVol33]

TBA was an absolute madhouse tonight. Wish we could get this type of atmosphere every. single. game.

 

[JohnWardForever]

You now appear brilliant. Thanks for trying to explain the up current odds.

I tried my best to get the point across; but kept getting backhanded by those that don't bet CBB. I make it a point to watch lines and look for a line that doesn't make sense. Vegas is full of tricks.

 

[Vols1498]

I can’t wait for Auburn

 

[DownTheField]

How's the song go? I don't give a **** about the whole state of Kentucky?

 

[Volfansince1980]

I don’t see BHH being here next year.

He’s been a huge disappointment considering the hype out of high school.

Not sure why he would leave. Fulky is gone. Uros takes up space. Aidoo is going to need someone else to help him work down low. Kid has talent. Just needs some weight and strength

 

[ArdentVol]

Uros is a warm body & BHH needs about 20lbs in the off-season.

warm body or not enough body, i am not givingup onthem
if bhh progresses like uros is, we'll be happy

Something to that type of tune.

 

[Volfansince1980]

Well screw The Sports Animals. I figured Vegas KNEW Tennessee was the play, that's why they were content to take all the UK money the bettors were willing to lay, by giving ky the points. GREAT WIN! Every W Vs Uk is like beating bama in football. Priceless!

Most of those guys are a bunch of local drunk Skip Baylesses

 

[TrippieRedd]

Just saw that we moved up to a 3 seed. I'll take it.

 

[VolPack22]

Who's the last Tennessee coach to beat Kentucky seven years in a row? For that matter, who's the last coach of any team to beat them seven years in a row?

Maybe Mears? I’m not really sure. But ever since Barnes has been here this has been a true rivalry. 9-7 against them and beaten them every season since he’s taken over.

[walkenvol]

Actually our guys basically said “F you” and went to celebrate with the fans. And I don’t have any issues with it.

I wish this would become the post game etiquette instead of the hand shake line

 

[ArdentVol]

KC and the sunshine boys are sztartin to find gtheir groove (I hope)

Need a top 100 recruit to be a lot more than Uros. If that’s his ceiling, it’s a disappointment

 

[Schasz]

Vol fans gotta love payback especially when the team we are paying back is KY. Thought that was a very good team victory with most everyone contributing to this big win.

 

[marvin616]

Ravitch can go clean out the crusties from that $#!++y blue suit

 

[I4Vols]

I don’t see BHH being here next year.

He’s been a huge disappointment considering the hype out of high school.

These coaches will see to it that the "switch" turns on if he listens & puts the work in.
Imagine him, Aidoo, Santi, Mr Z, ON, JJJ, Uros, & MayShaq

Add a couple newbies.
I like it.

 

[LittleCat]

I was amused with Fulkerson. If you watched him, he was schooling those young KY forwards some veteran moves and suckering them into fouls. They were really getting frustrated and were whining to the refs a lot toward the end.

He really takes a beating drawing the fouls. Purposely just let's people run him over and makes zero effort to stop from hitting the floor. All just to get a call, true dedication to the game lol

This would have been a good game to be at, @Thunder Good-Oil , I'm jealous.

Yes it would have been. I've not been in 15 years. I want to get my daughter (15) to a rivalry football game under the lights at Neyland and a basketball game at TBA......my bucket list!

 

[VolPack22]

I wish this would become the post game etiquette instead of the hand shake line

There are several teams I dislike in the SEC so I wouldn’t mind it. Can’t stand LSU, Kentucky, Alabama, Florida, Vanderbilt. Pretty much half the league lol

 

[MoCo_Vol]

If we only lose Fulky & KC next year’s team could be even better.

 

[DuckInAPen]

Maybe Mears? I’m not really sure. But ever since Barnes has been here this has been a true rivalry. 9-7 against them and beaten them every season since he’s taken over.

Mears, it seems, had streaks of four and five victories over them and was 15-15 against them overall, but had no period longer than five years with an annual win over them:

Could you imagine having Kansas and Duke in the same bracket? Talk about a rough time.
