Vols #5 In Jan 9 AP, Which Means…

[All Vol!]

Men’s’ Baseball, Football and Basketball have all been ranked inside Top 5 during the past year. I’m sure there are other sports and Ladies’ sports that have also done amazingly, but I haven’t followed them as closely. Talk about an athletics program on the rise, we’re pretty much killing it. VOLS FOREVER, GO BIG ORANGE!!!!

To be a little more specific, we have had 2 #1 ranked teams in 2022, not sure the last time that happened. (Baseball and Football)

 

[WillisWG]

I say it's great to be a Tennessee Vol!

Florida with Basketball and Football in 2006 probably

 

[ThatVolGuy]

Not to be that guy (as he proceeds to be that guy), but weren't we #5 in the final poll before the tournament last season? Maybe I'm not remembering correctly.

It's pretty cool nonetheless.

Yes, #5 in the final AP poll following the regular season.

I meant UT but interesting that the last time it happens to anyone was 2006.

I think UCONN won men's and women's basketball one season, but men's only Florida - football and basketball for sure.

 

[Ace]

Pretty sure that Lady Vols won national championship for 1998 season when football won NC.

This will not be an easy week with the Commodores and Wildcats visiting Thompson Boling Arena. I think we win both games but they will be hard fought and close.

Well worth pointing out, thanks!

If I had to bet, I would say UT Men will be number 1 at some point this season, hopefully finish there.

We will beat Vandy by 25+, KY by 15+

Vandy for sure, but UK is a wounded Bear right now. If that game is remotely close it could go either way.

It won't be. We proved last year we can shut Oscar down with our length. Aidoo is his kryptonite.

Only chance they win is by replicating their flukey performance last year where they shot 67% from the field and go 20/21 from FT.

and retiring Jersey #5 on Saturday.

The UK fans think they are going to lose to us by 40 on Saturday. I hope they are right for once.

We’d have to shoot very poorly to lose to UK.

They’re not very good defensively at all.

Great column by Mike Strange on Chris Lofton in the South Knoxville Shopper newspaper section in today Knoxville News Sentinel.

 

[Model12]

Didn't the LV start the season top 5?

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Very accurate so far. Vols just wanted to rest on their ranking.

 

[All Vol!]

We will beat Vandy by 25+, KY by 15+

Well bud you missed the commode doors call by 16, at that margin if you’re equally wrong on Saturday, we lose by a point. Could you perhaps be persuaded to go ahead and get out of the prognosticating business?
