UT's record will be ...

[bnhunt]

12-20 or something similar. This a REALLY bad basketball team. Losing to a 1-9 APSU team is inexcusable and should NEVER happen. That was a heartless and emotionless game and those players should be embarrassed to wear the orange. No way we are above .500 this year.

This was the only game I could afford to go to this year. Severely disappointed.

I was about to say how this is a lame post...but then looking over the schedule I am sad to say it might get that bad.

Where are all the posters who were saying ncaa bound and sixth or better in sec after the duke and memphis game.

 

[kbowersjr]

scary bad, I really don't understand this, AP is a bad low level team

Same thing i wondered.

At that point, it seemed plausible. Not even worth mentioning, IMO

At least there are a few "easy" games coming up. Hopefully UT can somehow build momentum into SEC.

 

[kbowersjr]

man if this is the only game you could afford this season, that is bad luck

 

[GBO18]

We will finish around the .500 mark.

No games are easy game right now.

That was before martin coached the winning attitude out of them

I think that's a Cuonzo quote.
Maybe he knows something we don't.

 

[kbowersjr]

i really miss Bruce

 

[iVol4Life]

I don't.

 

[UTK]

I don't.

You're crazy.

 

[Manvol]

Awful loss, just plain awful..

After today, how can you call any game "an easy game?"

 

[Special Ed]

Maybe Cuonzo did this so Dooley wouldn't feel so bad about losing to KY. Misery loves company.

 

[bleedorange0037]

Not real sure how you figure that. We just lost to an AP team that came into the game 1-9. I can't see any way we'll be beating any quality teams this year if even AP is better than us.

Note that i put easy in quotes.

 

[bleedorange0037]

Not even any reason to put it in quotes. When you suck even worse than Austin Peay, there's not even such a thing as an "easy game". They're all daunting at this point.

Good point. epper:

 

[AirForceVol74]

14--17 is my prediction.

You never know with bball. Momentum can play such a role. TN lost a 12 point lead, and all of their momentum. You just really have to be worried about the confidence level on this team. I just hope they can make the post-season for recruiting purposes. We really need a big man (Stokes) and a consistent 3 point threat. I think if Coach Martin can hold it steady, and add those pieces we can be in the top 3 in the conference next year.
