Vandy only letting family in

If they’ll take ‘em up on it....

Should be interesting playing them back to back.

Side note: A couple of the smaller conferences actually scheduled conference games back to back like this to make sure they get all the games in with COVID this year.

NBA is using a similar tactic on a limited basis.

Oh, snap!

Tough to beat the same team twice in the same week. Vandy is a lot better this year than last, but I, still predicting a sweep

Without fans, no home court advantage they can provide. That leaves advantage of surroundings. I give that to Vandy with they queer court. Just hope we are enough of a better team than they are. I now our coaching staff is better..

The queer court no longer is a big deal since coaches’ boxes are no longer restricted to the baselines.

And almost every team now has the same bench setup. The only current, unique quirk to Memorial Gym is the raised floor. Not something that is likely to matter in the outcome.

I haven't seen Vandy play so I was curious and looked up their stats. They seemed to have rediscovered the three point shot. Very good percentages. Vandy historically is known for that but really dropped off the last couple of years. We really need to extend and wear them down early. I don't want them to have a punchers chance at the end and hit two or three bombs on us for an upset.

43% from the field overall and 35% from three.

I'm for beating Vandy early and often. Let's play them as many times as we can.

Is Scotty Pippen jr a problem ?

 

[golfballs]

They’ve played their last two opponents tough. And if we give up 14 offensive boards like we did yesterday (they pulled down 13 vs UK) then they may be able to be able to hang around for a little while. But I think we win by 14+

 

[The Dog]

He can play, but UT has too much talent and a way better head coach and staff

 

[Volfan1000]

A back to back series ala the NBA seperated by a few days.

Probably the first time in UT men's basketball that this has occurred.

Yeah it’s a problem for Vandy that he’s their best player...

That along with him appearing slight of build. Our bigger guards could take him to the post with ease
