Good luck today guys.

Thank you Cat. From an outsider's perspective, what are you thoughts on the game?

I think UT has a great shot at winning. I think it will end up being a high scoring game. Both teams will hit a lot of threes.

Your username makes it hard to like you but I’m warming up.

You aren’t wrong.
The Vols defense can realistically keep it close so pressure on the Vols to make critical baskets in a competitive game.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Go Vols! Get your groove line on!!!! GBO!!!!

 

[TheManFromTenn]

GO BIG ORANGE

 

[vavolfan6]

UT is better at every position than Purdue, except inside where they have a 7 ft 4 guy. Its sad that the main story line is whether the refs will have a soft whistle or not.

 

[connor]

Man I’m nervous..

 

[VolBricks]

this is pissing me off, I am watching the CBS March madness bracket show and they pretty much have already counted TN out. They just showed their "Expected" final 4 and it was NC State, Bama, Uconn, and Purdue.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

With the TV guys all talking up a PU v UConn matchup, I’m feeling a 1986 Sugar Bowl vibe. Just need Jimmy Johnson lobbying for the N.C. before the game begins.

 

[sami]

I’ll get to see portions of the second half since I’m working as a Busser after working as a dish washing crew member.

Go UT Volunteers

I have three letters for you - DVR. One of mankind's greatest inventions.

 

[Volnut]

Have the officials for today's game been announced yet?

 

[TheBigOne10]

Get out and run boys. You are in superior physical condition. Make the ogre suck wind up and down the court.

 

[volplaya8]

40 mins and we hang a banner! Let’s go men! Get it done and give your all!

 

[zeppelin128]

Maybe Purdue will be looking ahead. Hope so.

Seems like nobody ever overlooks Tennessee.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

On pregame show, Charles Barkley didn't know who Purdue was playing today... dude is so ignorant

 

[TheBigOne10]

Charles will remember about 5:00.

 

[Volstylexx]

Anyone else feeling a calm confidence? It just feels like this is THE team that can and will get to the final 4.

I have some bad takes, but I honestly try to be reasonable.

 

[Volbrando]

Alright boys. We gotta win this one. Can’t let Bama make it to the final four without us

High anxiety day for me…but I would love to have what you are having sir

Yeah. We basically have been written off because the media is pining for a UConn/Purdue matchup. People basically expect Purdue to dog walk us because it’s “destiny” for Purdue to pull a 2019 Virginia.

I want to ruin this Purdue media slobber fest so badly.

I probably wouldn’t have snapped at you three weeks ago if you didn’t basically say this team isn’t very good outside of Knecht lol. Other than that, you’re fine.
