What are some ranked teams that Tennessee still has a chance to upset this season?

[VolFreakJosh]

I was just wondering if you guys think we still have a chance to upset some ranked teams before the season is over? We usually play Florida really well every year so I think we have a chance to upset them. Getting a road win at UK will be difficult but it's still possible. Any thoughts?

Kentucky and Florida


Those are the only 2 ranked teams left on our schedule.

Correct. Florida is probably a more likely win than Kentucky.

Agree since we play them twice

Let's be honest, hopefully Chris Walker is denied eligibility before we play him. His length would give Jarnell and Maymon issues.

During halftime of the UK/Ark game, one of the ESPN studio analysts ranked the SEC as the 7th best conference (don't know which one said it, I was busy eating and only heard him). I think that's a pretty low ranking and by the way the other analysts reacted, appearantly they thought so too.

It was Jay Wlliams, and by RPI SEC is 7th

I didn't realize it was that bad.

The SEC is the 7th best conference comment by Jay is what disappointments me most with Zo. I'm never going to ask UT to dominate every game in basketball, but under Zo we have played weaker schedules, mainly due to the fact we lose games like UTEP that eliminates us from playing great teams like Kansas in tournaments. Zo has beaten some good teams while he's been here, and he's countered them by losing to terrible teams at very bad times, aka this year's Thanksgiving tournament. We should be nothing short of a 23 to 24 win team this year, and we would be if we had some coaches here who could scheme an offensive game plan that placed Stokes on the high post where he's more effective along with a plan that created better space and movement.

Given history, we should get Florida once. Any chance Arkansas is ranked when we play them?

No.

They might be. They'll most likely be 13-4 when they play us. I guess it depends on who all loses in the top 25 this week.

Arkansas won't even be closed to rank, they weren't even in the receiving votes category last week iirc

The ref's also give Jarnell issues.
