I'll always take a win, but we should have cruised in this game by more than 20 pts. We let Aubie hang around reasonably close for the whole game, and Aubie is a crap team.

It'll likely be ugly Saturday against the bluebellies.

USC Upstate at home, A & M at home, Auburn at home, UTEP at a neutral court, NC State at home. Not to mention the other losses. Need I say more?

We seem to play better away than we do at home this year for some reason.

Upstate was pretty easy, never was really worried. Same with auburn tonight, we led throughout and not once did I feel like we were gonna lose.

UT was down 13 against USC Upstate in the 2nd half. I think plenty of people were worried. They pulled it out, but it was too close for comfort for a long time.

Fair enough. My point was simply that it's hardly a rarity this year for us to have an easy W.

We've had 3 wins against Xavier, Wake and Virginia that surprised me by their margin. We've had losses against UTEP and A & M that surprised me, the effort against NC State that surprised me and games that were a little too close for comfort against USC Upstate and Auburn. They went through the motions tonight.

@wesrucker247: Cuonzo on Auburn: "Tony does a good job getting his guys ready to compete. Nobody wants to finish last."


Perhaps half season should stop the insults as look in the mirror

I'm not sure what you're trying to say?

That we're gonna finish last?

Saying your opponent is playing hard so they don't finish last is a below the belt comment IMO.

What do you think the response would have been here if Franklin had said that butch had the vols playing hard because they didn't want to finish last after they beat us???

Why all the worry about the cheaters in blue? Did anybody not see them get their @ss beat Tuesday night against Arkansas? I'm not saying we will definitely win, but at worst, we won't get run out of the arena. This is NOT the kentucky team of 2012. This is a VERY beatable kitty cat team, even at Rupp. I'm pumped about the game Saturday. I don't know who I despise more. Bammer football or kitty cat basketball. I think it's a tie, I hate them equally.

I think it's definitely winnable. All depends on which Vol team shows up.

Rucker took Cuonzo's comment out of context. Most of the comment was omitted from the tweet. It's not a shot when you hear the full audio.

UK didn't get their @ss beat. Idk where you got that from. They were out played most of the game by an Arkansas team that thrives at home. I think we have as much of a chance as anyone, but don't downplay UK bc of that game.

I'm worried about the UK game.

Home game for them coming off of a loss. They could very well come out pissed and rout us. Just not a good time to play them.
