The Official #4 Tennessee @ #15 South Carolina Weekend Thread (Game 1 Thursday @ 7PM) (Game 2 Friday @ 7PM) (Game 3 Saturday @ Noon)

There are also 3 Texas teams that have nice resumes plus they gotta give one to PAC12 school like Oregon or Zona...plus Fairfield and ND.. tough choices

Fairfield has a better chance of not making the tournament than they do of hosting.

Fairfield will obviously make the tournament, but they play in an incredibly weak conference and their RPI is inflated because of the massive win streak. I could be wrong, but I would be utterly shocked if they gave a national seed to Fairfield.

 

[VolnJC]

Good thing these games don't really matter for us anymore. It's all about UK/Vandy.

They help with RPI

 

[VolnJC]

State cruising now...imagine their fans feelings about now...losing 2/3 at home to the worst team in the league (Missouri) could cost them an SEC Championship

 

[fryeguy93]

Yes, the tourney starts Tuesday morning with single elimination games.

We play Wednesday in the double elimination games.

If Vandy wins and we are the #3 seed, we play at 10:30am Wednesday vs. the winner of #6 vs. #11

If Vandy loses, we are the #2 seed and play at 2pm Wednesday. vs. the winner of # 7 vs. #10

Here's the SEC Tournament schedule

7/10 are currently SC and LSU
6/11 are Florida/Auburn

@vol66, @OldTimer

How bout them Vols!

 

[fryeguy93]

I don’t want to play Florida

I don’t want to play Florida

I don’t really want to see Carolina again either but no matter the seed, this tournament is going to be tough! It may be tougher to win in Hoover than in Omaha.
GBO!!

I don’t want to play Florida

Neither do I. This Vandy game is big in more ways than 1.

It is without a doubt tougher to win in Hoover than to make it to Omaha.

 

[VolnJC]

I don’t want to play Florida

Nope me either...this is probably minority thought but Florida and Vandy worry me more than Arkansas...they both have more weapons imo..Arky just doesn't beat itself and has Kopps if they have late inning leads

 

[jdogvol]

I am out of beer, gin and tequila, and it is too early for brown.

Never too early for brown!

 

[VolnJC]

Dang Bradfield Jr on to start the inning he might be at 3rd in 2 pitches

 

[fryeguy93]

Considering the top half of the bracket will or should host tourney, then this will be toughest field until Omaha. Then 50%+ of that field may be from this field as well

2-1 Cats man on 2nd no outs for Vandy B3

As much as I want to make a deep-run in Hoover, and show out well, I just want to make it to Omaha for the first time in.....well forever. I'll be disappointed if/when we lose next week, but just staying healthy and keep building momentum for the big one is more important.

Wonder who Coach V will elect to start on the mound Wednesday?

It will be Cheese. Winning the first game goes a long way in Hoover. Tidwell will be on short rest, so won't be him.

 

[txbo]

Bama is in the middle of giving us one more reason to hate their guts.

 

[VolnJC]

2-2 no outs B4 Vandy 1st 2nd

Thanks! I kinda figured it would be. Just wasn’t for sure.

 

[GhostVol]

Looks like the wheels fell off in a big way for AL with 3 errors

 

[VolnJC]

Arky up 2-0 on Gators...they just keep on winning

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Thanks! I kinda figured it would be. Just wasn’t for sure.

I mean it's no guarantee, it's just my guess. It 100% won't be Tidwell because of short rest, you're likely not going to throw a mid-week starter in Hoover. So, that leaves Heflin and Dallas.

 

[NorCalVol67]

KY is not going to do us any favors.
